MY LOCS!

My sister started them for me.  after research I think I can maintain them myself.  I just need someone to grid it for me.  I think I'm going to go for a manicured look.

But first... OFF TOPIC

So I was feeling like crap and I went to walmart with this look here>>>>>>>>>

It amazes me how certain people hit on this look.

*rolls eyes*

A wise person once said when the time is right you'll know it. 

Ya don't say? 

Well, it's time for me to loc my hair. *smiling really hard*  I don't  know how I know but I know that I know it's time (yeah I used the word "know" 4 times in a 14 word sentence).  My reasons for locing?  Who said you need a reason?

I don't know how long my journey will be. I don't know where my journey will take me.  I do know that I'll embrace this journey.  

My only preconceived notion is: I might be in the "ugly stage" (real or imagined) for several months.  But that's okay!  Patience is what'll get me through. 

I had a friend tell me that he knew it was coming and that most naturals end up locing.  I didn't even take offense to the stereotype.  So what. 

Before I begin I'd like to take a trip down memory lane.  You know I've had many looks in the past few years:

("know" word count=10 plus "knew")

Today was most interesting.

1. There was a lady hitch hiking near my job. 

2. DPE/The Prototype had an interview at a local radio station.

3. Went to a Unity Festival with my youngest son.  He asked me if the break dancers were real and if he were dreaming. lol He then said he wants to be a break dancer when he grows up.  He then said that they (the professionals) look way better than me break dancing.

4. Hung out at IHOP all night long like I used to do back in the day.

5. Saw a man peeing/jacking off in a parking lot of a strip club while at a red-light.

 

I like them!

I'm too excited

:) :) :) :) :) :) :)

*Clears Throat*

See what happened was...

Ok, so my head was itching. Badly. I was told and have read that you MUST wait until 3 WEEKS to wash your head.  *I had really started to rethink this whole lockig thing.  My head was itching after the 3rd day.  I washed my hair.  I lost my locs. :(

Bad hair day made better with a head wrap and a hat!

My homie godchild gave me this hat.  The hat belonged to his grand dad.

I like it.  See my naps peaking?
