I can't believe it's been 5 months already. In a few weeks (Jan 1, 2009), it will actually be 6 months. It seems like just yesterday when my Sisterlocks were born. I can see they've come a long way and my new consultant is really great. I've been fighting with myself trying to be patient. I want to use conditioner. I want them to be longer. I want to not worry about slippage. She just keeps telling me to be patient and I know she's right.
We had a get together of the Chicago Sisterlocks group 'Locked down in Chi-town". It was a great success. I met 12 of my new closest friends. :-) We actually plan on getting together again before Christmas. It was amazing to see so many different kinds of Sisterlocks. Knowing we all started the same way but seeing how everyone turned out different was really inspiring. I hope we will all keep in touch. It really helps to personally know other people on the same journey. There's so much we can learn from each other.
I've posted new pictures in my Fotki of the get together as well as my 5 month old locks. Take a look and see you next update.
