My Mother Has Sisterlocks

I honestly thought this day would never come.....

(Pic of me and my mom many years ago)


My mother gave me the opportunity to install her Sisterlocks. What a great pleasure.

My mother has struggled with going natural on and off for years. She was undecided and ALWAYS worried what other people would think of her hair. She works in a corporate setting so she still worries but not as much.

Back in May of 2010 she decided she had enough of perms and decided to go natrual. I was so happy that she finally decided to go natural but I was happier that she decided to get Sisterlocks :)

She still has some ways to go about embracing her natural hair to the fullest but at least she took the first step.

Here are a few pictures of her install. It took over 2 days due to several circumstances and interruptions but hey I got the job done :)

Her last perm was in May 2010 had about 4-5 inches of new growth. She started with some permed ends, I was almost able to get rid of most of them, but she was afraid to let the length go in the front, lol. Maybe next time. I think her locks came out really nice. I know that she will enjoy this new found freedom.

SN: Now I need to work on my sister, she went natural about a year ago as well but she doesn't want
 locks :(

I'm still working on her though..lol.

Well enjoy the photos,  hope all is well with you all.

Until next time much love!
