Hello my name is Valencia but you can call me V. After years of damaging my hair, I knew there had to be a better way. So I decided to take the path to go natual and lock up. I was Sisterlcoked from June 2006 until Sept 2010 (4yrs). In which during that time I truly enjoyed my hair freedom. Unfortunately my journey had to come to end due to post partum hair loss. I have recently started a new journey this past September, and looking forward to all the ups and downs. As a new Sisterlocks™ Consultant I want to give women and men that same freedom.

Hubby's Locks

So I thought it was time to update you on my DH's locks. I wanted to wait till his one year mark but I was to anxious to show his progress, lol.

For those who don't know this is his 3rd attempt at locks. The first two times he attempted the twisting method. However he couldn't resist the urge to wash his hair. For some reason my hubby likes to wash his hair every day (I've cut him down to every other day, lol), which makes the twisting method almost impossible. So finally the third attempt he decided to try with braids, he wasn't particualr about parts just grabed and braided, so far so good. However since his hair grows like mad he has to deal with fuzziness.

I think I will start alternating methods from twisting to latching to see if that will help. What do you all think?

His locks are 10 Months now, I can't believe it has almost been a year! Well enough of the talking(typing) Here are some pics.

The first collage is a pic of his locks before I retightened them. That is about 2 and a half months of new growth( makes no sense for someones hair to grow like that, lol).


It looks like he is free forming.




And Now for the finished product...




Although he has a lot of fuzziness and unstoppable growth. I think his locks are turning out pretty good. Unfortunately he is still afraid to wear his locks out in the open because he doesn't think it's long enough... MEN!

Side Note: I absolutley love this song that is playing in the background. It's called Hello by Beyonce. My DH literally had me at hello the first time I saw him, however it took him a few years to realize it, lol.

Until next time much love!

His locks are growing like weed it's just amazing. I wouldn't worry about the fuzz, I'm betting his locks will mature out of that phase soon enough. :)

Thanks for the comliments. Yes it is her latest album.

Thandi
He has some hair cap that he wears, it's similar to a wave cap. Sometimes he just wears a plan baseball cap or a tam.

Chinnue
I sure hope that phase ends soon,lol.

Thanks ladies for stopping by.
Take Care

He shouldn't be worried about wearing his locs out, they look wonderful!! Then again, I've always been about the fuzzies!!! I do agree with Chinue, the phase will end soon..

Hey Meikmeika

He ia a mess when it comes to showing his locks, he has his moments when he feels like being free which is every blue moon, however majority of the time he keeps them covered.
