Last month was 6 months since I had my afro. To be honest. I think I'm starting to miss my locks more than I would like, lol. I'm starting to get lock envy all over again. about 85% of my hair is long enough to lock (with Sisterlocks) however the previous bald spots are growing but at a real slow pace. My hair is still very thin in those areas but at least something is growing :).
I'm not sure when I will relock but I know for sure it will happen. I miss my long hair....
Anyhow the first collage is of my hair when I first cut my locks off brace yourself it looks really bad. It took me 7 months to post these photos.
The next collage is of my hair 6 months later I still have some thiness/baldspots but I can deal with them its just a part of life. I really do wish the shrinkage would pass because my hair is a lot longer than it seems.
Earlier this month I did a twistout and the twists stretched out my hair some. I really enjoyed the look but I didnt like the work it took to put them in and take them out. (Another reason I know I will lock again, I'm too lazy, lol) I forgot to take pictures, next time I will.
Well here is an update of my sons locks @ 5 months
As for my hubby he couldnt take it no longer(the growing out process) and cut his hair again. Lets just say I was very pissed at first to the point it felt like he betrayed me... but I'm over it now :) It is only hair right?
Just incase you didn't get the memo. I'm a now Certified Sisterlocks Consultant. It's not updated on the website yet but you can see my certificate on my FB page. Hope all is well with everyone.
Until Next Time Much Love

Thanks for the nice comments
@ Thandi
I'm sure you do miss your daughter's locks, maintaining loose hair is not as easy as maintaining locked hair.

thanks for sharing your hairloss journey, looks like it is filling in nicely definitely see a Dermatologist, my issues wouldnt have been as great had I been more vigilant in making the doctors take my hair loss more seriously, so good luck to you & cant wait to see your updates
