Month 1

So were into the second month and Ive been officially locked for 1 whole mth now ( I didnt take anything out or restart I swear!) and you know what? it feels so good lol. I get up, then wash and go. Seriously who has time to sit around and press their hair (NOt I) anyway I just wanted to update and show you the process as I go along. I found that my hair is very soft especially in the front and unravels constantly especially the front so ive resorted to braiding a few locks here and there but hey I still look cute :P Ive also loosened some big ones and made them smaller I like how the smaller ones look and feel.

Day 1 mth 1

Ok well the differences may not seem like much but if you look closely my hair is starting to dense up a bit. It's not as loose and Ive been interlocking with a copper tool I made and wrapped with a plastic strip. It works awesome for my hair when I can locate it lol. I can't wait to see what my hair does 6 mths from now.

Here are a few more pics with different angles Ive also noticed that my tips are turning golden brown dont know if thats just naturally occuring but I really like it. I think when I reach my lock anniversary I will treat them to some henna and we'll really see the magic~enjoy:

I know I have to embrace them but enough with the frizzies already Oy veh!

3 weeks later

1st day week three


Yes so I decided to wash and interlock 2 weeks in because honestly I can't wait 2 months. When my scalp starts to itch, I need to wash my hair you know what I'm saying? Anyway just wanted to update with some pics for the matte progression. As you can see my hair is starting to curl here there and everywhere with loose strands all over the place. My hair keeps unraveling from the twists but interlocking the roots seem to help keep them somewhat in place. So far Ive been having some trouble with two headed dragons but I guess it's inevitable after I wash my hair. I think when I start seeing some condensing I will consider lopping these little monsters at the ends off or maybe I'll just leave them be and see what happens. I'm a little impatient but I'm trying not to sweat the small stuff life is way to short for that. =)
