I FINALLY DID IT!

curlssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss....

It started out.... super tight, bouncy curly curls....

As the week went on, they continued to loosen.

I think I like it after the third day... looks full and bouncy. Who says you can't be versatile with locs!! :)

It looks like it might last for a good 2 weeks! How exciting!

For the complete journey, don't forget

#16 Loc Journal

OK, so I'm jumping right into my 101/1001!

For the record, I officially shaved my head Christmas Night, 2004. From the beginning of the New Year through about April/May 2005, I rocked my bush... (which everyone hated, though I loved).

April/May 2009 will mark my 4 year Locversary!!!

My locs were started at a salon with gel twists. Since, I have been maintaining them myself through daily scalp treatments and weekly maintenance.



I created a flickr account to document my loc journey. I wish I started documenting sooner... it would've been fun to reminisce over ALL my loc transformations. I can't really say that I went through an "ugly" phase. What I can say is that I definitely had a period of time where the length was awkward! I created a flickr account to document my loc journey

I snapped this shot a few days ago after a wash and twist

I will attempt to log new hairstyles, maintenance tips, etc. monthly.
So, what to expect with my locs? Curls, absolutely! A dramatic dye? Maybe!
