11 months - September

First set of pics from 11 months - I tried out this hairstyle that I saw my friend wearing. I thought it was so cute! It's easy too! Flat twist up the back and a few on the side. *note* I thought I would have to use bobby pins, but my friend told me that she just tied her hair to hold it together, so that's what I did! Leave the front out straight, curled or a braid out. I wore this style for a week and everyone gave me compliments! The last picture in this group is how curly and fun my hair was after taking it out of the style. I love the curls too so I wore those for a couple days:

Second set is a group of texture shots and a couple pics from when I tried out pipe cleaner curls:

Tres, Trois, Tre

3 months! :-) still loving every minute!

SO my favorite shampoo, by far, is LUSH Big shampoo! it.is.AWESOME! It is made up of 50% sea salt - amazing!

At first I was WAY skeptical of this shampoo! One, was the price...$21 - eek! The other was the container size, ummm it's tiny!(11.7oz - about the size of those small containers of ice cream!) And third, I was confused on how this stuff would lather up, let alone, work! Boy were my "worries" subsided when I rubbed a SMALL amount into my scalp and went to work on my locs! Umm, great!

That picture up top is the best one I could find so you could understand the texture! LUSH uses some amazingly HUGE chunks of sea salt, that dissolve into your head and works wonders! I could tell it worked while in the shower! The sea salt tightened up my locs almost instantly! And never left my hair dry, dull nor brittle!

The lady at LUSH gave me a sample back at the end of November and I am still using it! Seriously, a little bit goes a LONG way! I wash with it about twice a week and rinse each day to give my locs life!  My hair is WAY plumper and more at the top are knotting up beautifully! - WOOT!

Here are some texture pics of my hair at 3 months! can't believe it's already three months! I'm loc'd and LOVING it! yay! *Fist pumpin like champs* for my fab hair!

2 months!

So! It's officially 2 months *grin* I am LOVING my hair each and every day! My hair REALLY fits me! I wish I started sooner, but of course! Each day I look in the mirror and smile at the progress my hair is making! I love the fuzzies! LOVE them! They give each loc character!

Day 1, 2 weeks, 2 months - back of head comparison

I am excited that my hair is filling in and getting thicker because I can do different styles! When I first got my hair done, I could only pin it up with a bobby pin or curl it with my curlers.  Now I can gather the front and pull it back and it has volume, lol! (It's the little things that make me happy!)

So since my last post, I haven't used any products on my hair and haven't done a retightening! Over the past 7 days I've washed/rinsed my hair in the morning and I LOVE the results! I think I will continue to do this! It makes my hair fuller and I love the little curlies at the ends of my locs :-)

I think I'm going to go through the end of the year with out a re-ti, or product(Sea salt loc tightening spray)! My hair just likes water, so it should be cool! Um, that's about it for now! No budding or anything like that to report, but all in due time!
