Wrapping My Locks

I've been experimenting with different styles these days. My latest is wrapping light weight scarves around my head. I have a couple different colored scarves that match my shirts. Here are two pictures that showcase my new Sisterlock passtime.

Video Journal of My Sisterlock Journey

Here is a video chronicle of my two-year journey.

My T-shirt Line: No More Crumbs!

A few years ago I began recognizing my pattern of bad relationships and tried to understand why things were not working out for me.

I examined my thoughts and feelings as well as what I had been accepting from men and people in general.

I heard years ago that we teach people how to treat us. We accept positive or negative behavior based on what we think we deserve.

What we think we deserve is rooted in how we were treated as a kid and teen.

The reality is we accept pretty crappy treatment from people. Mostly because that's all we've know and it's familiar. We gravitate to people who are familiar to us.

Those people my treat us with kindness or with contempt. They may be emotionally abusive, physically abusive, or unavailable.

In the big picture the treatment we accept is learned but we can unlearn or reprogram our minds. That's what I did and to help me remember I created t-shirt.

I have proclaimed No More Crumbs. This means I will no longer accept the leftovers or crumbs people want to throw me. I deserve a very large piece of cake!

So check out the t-shirt and let me know you if you want one.

Update After Long Absence

It's been a long minute since I've posted anything on this site. I apologize profusely. Life has literally gotten away from me.

My Sisterlock journey has be progressing very nicely. I am now two years and four months locked and I'm loving every minute of it.

I have just recently started wearing my hair straight. Meaning no braid-outs which is my standard hair style.



I've been swimming this week so I didn't want to put a lot of effort into my hair. It's just easier to do a quick shampoo after I get out of the swimming pool and letting it air dry.

I spritz my hair with essential oil and water mix or Nature's Shine. I love that this last product has a coconut oil base.

I'm a little more carefree with my locks now that they are longer. It's just easier to not fuss over them.

They are growing so fast now. I am happy about that but with all this heat I hate all that hair on my neck.



The up-do pictured is simple to achieve. I found elastic comfort fit headbands made by Goody's that I double then put on my hair.

I have to bend over to arrange all my hair on the top of my head, then I pull all the hair through the elastic.

I tighten as needed to get the look I want. I put a flower in for the finished look.
