Sassier, Classier locks at 3 Months

**I apologize this posting is a little late!! It was originally suppose to be posted on 11/29/09 not 12/7/09!)

Yesterday I went for my retightening and my loctician Tonya told me my locks are doing great. However, she told me not to go overboard with spritzing my hair with water because I was getting holes in my locs. She also told me to make sure to braid and band my hair to the end to prevent this from happening again. My retightening session lasted 5 1/2hours but I was only charged for 4 due to her stopping to tend to her kids!

Today my locks are at it's 3 months mark and I'm loving them more than ever!! I have more length, and I'm able to achieve more styles with my locks. If my hair looks like this at 3 months I can't wait to see what 6 months have in store!

Here is a comparison pic from Week 1



Here is a pic of my hair now!

(I do admit I'm obsessed with my black tiara but, it is hard for me to find more of these without the comb inside!) I promise by the new year I will lay this tiara to rest and accessorize more!!

(Hair still very curly in texture but some in the back are starting to lock!! Yeaaaaaah!!)


Huge Difference from week 1 to 3 months : ) !

What's up with the Sisterlock headquarters?

Like many SL wearers - I love my Sisterlocks! I consider myself to be a advocate and the poster child for Sisterlock love & education. I hope one day I get to meet the lovely and encouraging Dr. Cornwell in person, to thank her for creating such a liberating method of locs. However, ( I'm going to say this but I mean no disrespect to the Sisterlock company) I really think Dr. Cornwell need to hire her a more efficient staff.

First Incident (before I got the SL's) I called the headquarters super excited to ask a question about a particular loc technician who worked in a beauty salon. There's a disclaimer on the SL website encouraging all potential clients to check with the headquarters first, to make sure that the SL technincan is legit. This is what I was doing. The lady I spoke to had a smirky attitude with me. She informed me that currently there is no shops that offer SL's only individual locticians. She did say that some locticians may work in a salon and offer the services. But, It was how she said it! On top of that, she rushed me off the phone!! So much for customer Service! To say the least, I was kind of discouraged after that call to get SL's. I thought the headquarters would be more warm and welcoming and delighted to answer my questions... It was a rude awakening!

Second Incident This incident happen last week-- I got a call from the SL headquarters one night on my way home from work. The lady over the phone told me that my SL Anniversary card was returned back to them because they put the wrong address on it. I gave them the correct address along with my name and loctician name for verification. The lady proceeds to tell me that she called my loctician and my loctician said she don't know who I am!!! WHAT!!!

The lady was like, are you sure you got your hair done with a SL technician and was drilling me with question about when and where I got them done ...

I was a little upset, because I felt the lady was inadvertly calling me a liar! So, when I got off with her I called My loctician right away. She told me that the lady from the Headquarters never called her!! That she probably called someone else thinking it was her. My loctician said it isn't the first time they messed up like this. She proceeded to tell me of other incidents that they messed her over with. I was shocked and suprise!! It just confirmed that they are disorganized and need to improve their system!

Other than that, Here's my Anniversary card that I finally got after waiting 3 months!! But at least I GOT IT!! WOO HOO!!

Here are some 2 1/2 month hair pics of my progress -- Every month just keeps getting better!:

I tried to change poses on this last pic but, the camera caught me with my mouth open LOL!
