About Me

My photo
I am embarking on a new journey to truly know the core of me. I no longer fill the need to fit in or fit some status-quo. Just to truly find the true beauty in me and be loved by my family and true friends.

A lot of Decisions

I have been out of the loop for awhile because I had to make some big decisions. I went to a consulation in Smyrna and I thought my consultation went fairly well. The consultant put about 10 test locks in my hair with knots at the end. I DID NOT like the feel of that in my hair. I really didnt like how the consulation went. She told me she didnt believe in backcombing and that was the reason for the knots at the end of my hair and I was not feeling that at all. I still set an appt to get them installed because I figured she know what she was saying. I kept having this feeling for weeks...oh, I went in for this appt on 8/13 andI scheduled to have my locks installed on 9/18 & 9/19. Something just wasnt sitting right in my spirit. So I went to the 1st lady I met to inquire about sisterlocks, she is in a shop, she has sisterlocks and I have seen her work.. I was just trying to stay close to my area in Marietta but that is not the issue. After reading blog after blog, speaking with people about locks...this is an investment and I want to make a great investment in the person who will the creator of my locks.

i went in for my official sisterlock consultation on 9/18/08 and that was a true consultation. She explained to me about my hair, the density, texture. She explained to me the locking process and the different types of hair. She asked me questions concerning Why I want sisterlocks, and my plan for my hair. She was informative and she has sisterlocks which are beautiful. Her locks are 5 years old and she has a true love for doing natural hair. I am scheduled to have the birth of my sisterlocks on 10/22 & 10/23/08. I can not wait. This is also my new birth. My bday is 10/15 and I think I am starting 36 beautifully.

I dont have a camera yet. But I did take some pictures of my old hair..oh by the way... I had my new locktitian cut off all of my permed end about 10 inches and i have about 3 inches of new growth...I was not sad when she was cutting it...for the first time in a long time I felt free..............
until later......stay blessed

Welcome to the world of Sisterlocks, Jacqueline. It is so important that you let your inner spirit lead you. You had a feeling that just wasn't quite right and you took that feeling and made another choice. My consultant here in Chicago is a trainer for Sisterlocks and it was important that I had that inner spirit to guide me. On my initial consultation 3.5 years ago it just felt right...I had plenty of time to change my mind because she did not have any opening until several months later. I didnt change or waver from my decision and look where I am now! My consultant has such a warm spirit that I was immediately comfortable with her and her work. Pls keep us posted..Happy locking!!
