Update 3 Yrs 7.5 months

I'm surprised at how long it's been since I updated this blog.  I have 2 other blogs that I give way more attention to.  One is on becoming vegetarian 2 years ago and the other is on generally being a geek. But this one is about Sisterlocks and I guess it's a testament to how much I've accepted my hair that I don't focus on it so much.

It has grown a lot. I can't remember ever having this much hair and I find myself constantly pushing it out of the way. I'm a DIYer who is lazy about retightenings.  My new years resolution is to do a better job (well do the retightenings more regularly).  I'd have some locks combine on their own and that becomes a major hassle  I'm wondering what some of them will look like as they grown out.  Right now I have so much hair that you can't see some of the ooopsies. :-)

I get lots of comments from people.  I like that more women are asking about them and I love that I'm seeing more women either wearing locks or wearing their hair natural.  There is hope for us!

Well, here I am at 3 years 7.5 months looking at 4 years right around the corner.  I look back at day 1 and am eternally grateful that I had the vision and patience to go with locks and stick it out.
