Hey y'all,
I haven't updated here on the exchange since just after my install in '08, so I thought I would post one of the recent videos from my blog.

Be encouraged,

Hello everyone.

I've been sisterlocked since February 3, 2008 and I'm lovin' it.

Thank you, Maryee, for this blog exchange. Each blogger is part of a wonderful support system for sisters who may be flirting with the idea of getting locs.

After 10 years of wearing my hair natural, I fell off the wagon a few years ago, but I am happy to be in back in recovery.

When I went natural the first time, locs were not a consideration. Locs didn't even cross my mind. But this go round, it didn't take me much time to realize that locs are for me.

I am being watched, as are many of us! At work and by friends and acquaintances, many who are natural, but bored with their hair. Many who are considering weave or a press and curl, just to change it up a bit...But now they are watching, waiting and hopeful!

Hotep,

Hello All,

My hair has always been an extension of my life. I had my first set of locs for ten years. I started them all wrong, product wise. But they were the longest my hair has ever been.



Now I have had a sort of rebirth and my hair has joined me. I started my second set of locks 12/31/07.




At this moment they are a mixture of latched, coils, and braids. I love them more everyday. The more I leave them alone, the happier they are.


I look forward to comments and suggestions. And I am always willing to offer my support and "what-not-to-do wisdom."


So, check out my NappyBlessings Blog or join me on Myspace and NappyStar.

Peace & NappyBlessings
