Why I started my locs.

Have you ever asked yourself, " Why you started dreadlocks?" I did.  I remember I was sick of getting single strand knots and my hair always broke off during my styling sessions. I was not retaining any length at all and I had heat damage. One day I just had enough and I decided I wanted to retain length and have healthy hair. I was tired of having a mini fro with uneven lengths.  I began by researching different ways to start dreadlocks. I knew I didn't want them to be too thick in diameter and I wanted to be able to style my hair in similar styles as my loose natural hair. I researched for 2 months and decided I wanted sisterlocks until I saw the price. The prices started at a minimum of $600 and going as high as $1,000.   It was not that serious for me.  I found videos on YouTube showing me how to interlock my hair and get the small locs I want. Well, it took me 3 days to finish my whole head because I have a big head and thick hair lol.  I was finally done and  I loved it!! October 10, 2014 was my first day and I can't wait until my loc'aversary!  Check out some pics below. I'm loving it. The last pic is from May 2015.

I want to be a positive energy and want to make sure my posts are giving off that positive energy. My next few posts are going to be filled with posts regarding sewing and, if you're interested, loc health. Bear with me as I'm learning how to construct a tutorial video for my sewing projects. Until we meet again.....
