3 Years Locked! April 2004

April 2001 - Beginning

April 2002 - 1 Year

April 2003

Sorry I'm so late with these updates. I had a slight "run-in" with my "trusty" digital camera and I had to resort to other measures to get these photos.

So, it's now been three years since I started my locs. I can honestly say that I am really lovin' my locs and the freedom that comes with them! I've probably said that before, but it's just how I feel. I still don't do much styling like I used to. I also try and let my hair be for the most part...I don't tighten it nearly as much as during the earlier stages.

My routine is pretty much the same...shampoo once a week (if not every two weeks), a little oil and every now and then I'll spritz them. It's pretty simple...nothing major, nothing fancy. My hair has grown out from when I cut it some months back. I KNOW it would have been a lot longer now (especially the front) had I not done that, but it's done and it's growing back, so that's cool.
Well, enough of the chatter, enjoy the pictures! NOTE: You may notice I have a lot of shots of the right side of my head...there's a reason for that (and no, not because I think it's my "best side"!). Due to the way I had to manuever things to get these shots on a camcorder that was hooked up to my computer, most of the shots had to be either face-forward or that particular side. It was easiest for me.

 

Locs in motion...I know, I know...but I just HAD to!

I can finally do a REAL loc puff!

James and Momma. The little man is 16 months in this pic! Notice his one lil' loc in the back...that is one of many that are soon to come (more on that a while later!)
