ENDS

Hey everyone,
As I have mentioned before I have some perm on the ends of my locks. When I installed them I cut some length off because I really wanted to start with all natural hair. In the end my consultant said its probably best to leave some perm on the ends.
Here's the thing I love the way ends look when they are thick and rounded. I'm worried that when I cut my permed ends off the balls that are suppossed to form won't. I have some locks in the back that's already forming with the balls however, my hair was so short in the back it was mostly natural. The middle of my hair with the most perm is not really doing anything. So I'm worried my locks won't turn out the way that I want them 2!!!! To get a mental picture Kalia-Dewdrop and cheleski68 -Lockin and Poppin (hope you guys don't mind me using your names)have the thick ends that I would like.

Retightened AT LAST!!

As you can see from my last pics I was in desperate need for a retightening. Due to finances and the holiday season I went 2 months without a retightening. The pics show the side, back , and front of my hair. They're always so stiff for the first few days so I try not to style them or I'll end up with a headache for the entire day.
I have been braiding my hair to get the crinkly look because I don't like the way my hair looks when it's straight. Mainly because I still have some perm on my ends. I have read some other blogs and a lot of people curl their hair with rollers. I would love to do it but I think my hair is too short to pull the look off. What do you guys think? Should I try it at least?

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy New Year everyone.
Well it's been a while since I last updated. I've been locked for four months now and I am serious when i say everyday I fall in love with my locks a little more. I'm starting to see the changes as some of them lock up, some unravel, and others look the same. All in all I'm loving it though. I'm not even tripping over length anymore. Don't get me wrong I CAN"T WAIT FOR THE LENGTH!!! But I'm having such a good time watching it transition.
I went home (CT) over the holidays and I got mixed reviews concerning my hair. Most people kind of looked at me sideways and said the usual "Why did you do that to yourself?" I look at them the same way and say," what did I do?" They kind of laugh it off after that. I say hey u don't have to like it because I love enough for the both of us!!
How about this one, "You don't really have dreads they are just tiny braids you got jipped." When you do something different people always try to find a way to put you down. I don't discriminate locks are locks I have come to appreciate each and every method but I chose the sisterlock method for myself and I have NO regrets.
I love being a LOCKED DIVA!! ;)

By the way I'm on my way to the gym in the pics and I wear a stocking to pill my hair back.
