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.

3 Year Anniversary




I'm almost two weeks late, but I had a good reason, I almost set my house on fire and figured that was more of a priority.

Don't worry every one is ok, the fire only lasted about a good 5 minutes. There was very minor damage nothing a little scrubbing and painting can't fix. Lets just say I need to stay away from the kitchen for a while, lol.

Anyhow onto more important things hair. It's been three years, I can't believe it's been that long already! I have to keep reminding myself by counting the years that I first got them up until now on my hands, lol. Anyhow through all the ups and downs I'm still in love with my locks. I still contemplate of starting over but then the idea goes away only to resurface again. I have a feeling that I'm going to leave well enough alone, because if I really wanted to start over I would have a long time ago. All is well with my hair it is continuing to grow. I don't style much unless you call "freestyling" a style. Every now and then I will do the occasional braid out but I pretty much freestyle 99.8% of the time. I need to get out of this rut.

Maybe I should start a style challenge for myself. And style my hair every week for a month and see how it goes. It won't hurt right?

I'm starting to come to grips with the fact that I was born with thin hair, and that my hair will never be thick, this has been passed on to me for several generations. With all the damage that I have put my hair through I should be happy that I have any hair left, and I am. I will never put my hair through that torture again. I am so happy with my locks and have grown to love them that I can't imagine my hair in another style. My locks fit me and I fit them!

Now onto Pictures.....

This is a collage of my locks during the first year:

Last but not least here are a few pics of my locks leading up to my 3rd year:

Until Next Time Much Love
