Looking at the Bright Side

Well despite my latest feelings about my Sisterlocks, things are starting to turn around. I just want to thank all the ladies who stopped by my blog and left comments on my previous post. I really appreciated the advice, support and words of encouragement. I feel better now. I decided to write a post about what I did like about my Sisterlocks. I just recently got my hair retightened and even though the spaces returned, I love getting my hair retightened and I just love the way my locks feel. It's like they have been rejuvenated! While I was going through my phase I was looking at some pictures when I first got my Sistelocks and looking at those pictures help me to realize that I have come along way, a very long way. So I do know that things will eventually get better.

The thing that I love most about my Sisterlocks is the freedom. How I don't have to stress out about my hair. I have really gotten used to the fact that I can just get up and go. Having Sisterlocks are very convenient being that I'm a very busy person and mom and about to become even busier! I'm really thankful that I have one less thing to worry about. Lately I have been examining my locks and I have noticed that my locks are thickening at the roots which is a very good thing it gives me hope. I hope this means that my locks are getting stronger and hopefully I won't have a problem with thinning locks in the future. I have finally accepted the fact that it's going to take a longer time than I planned for my hair to fully lock. The only thing I can do is sit back and wait. I'm still holding off on the unnecessary products and styling although it is really hard but I'm coping pretty well. For most of the time I have been keeping my hair braided. I sometimes braid my hair in one or two french braids at night and in the morning if I have to go out I take them loose and it produces this really great braid out.( sorry I have no pictures maybe next time!) Back when I first got my Sisterlocks I wasn't too fond of braid outs but as my hair continues to grow I'm starting to like braid outs now.





Speaking of growth I noticed my locks have really been growing. That's another thing I like about my Sisterlocks that is has really made my hair grow and thicken up. I decided to test my growth and put it in a pony tail. I was successful, I have been able to put my hair in a pony tail before but this time I didn't have to force it! lol, Which is a good feeling. I admit I still have a little ways to go but I think I can safely say that this is a true pony tail. Now back in my permie days I was never able to do this my hair was always to thin and short from breakage. My hair is defitnetly in better shape. Well I'm over my little phase now and I have learned to be a little more patient because I know good things come to those who wait! Well until next time much love!
