Beginning stages 2008
Mar 4, 2009

I started my loc journey in August 2008. I've been natural since July 06. I was tired of that creamy crack in my hair, so I decided to just deal with my natural hair. I' m so happy that, I made the choice to go natural. I feel like a brand new person. I feel rejuvenated. After looking over all my beautiful sisters albums. I decided to create a fotki for myself. Please feel free to give me any advice and post a lot of wonderful comments hehe!!!! Stay Bless and Be safe my beautiful people.

My Growing locs three and a half year journey!!! I will wait 2 mths before I start re-twisting my locs again, don't have the patience anymore to re-twist my hair, I will be free-forming for a while. I wash my hair every 2 weeks and just braid my hair so I can get that crinkly look. Or if I'm going out I will try different styles in my hair as you can telll on my photo album. June updates are coming soon,so look out for my new hair color!!! Peace, love and blessings my beautiful people!!

Transitioning from a texturizer to natural hair, it has been 14 months since the last time she had any harsh chemicals in her hair. I made a huge mistake in placing a texturizer in her hair. I wish I had more knowledge of taking care of natural hair back then, I would've never placed a texturizer in her hair if i knew back then what i know now. The products I use on her hair are:Aloe Vera Juice ,Extra Dark Jamaican Black Castor Oil, Coconut Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, , Healthy Hair Butter by Carols Daughter, Shea Moisture Line: Retention Shampoo, Raw Shea Butter Restorative Conditioner and the Deep Masque Treatment. How I maintain my daughter's hair, Every two weeks I alternate between using a shampoo or a conditioner. I do alot of hot oil treatments once a week or before I shampoo her hair and,.I moisturize her hair daily mixing the JBCO and Coconut Oil. I try to maintain her hair with protective styles every 2 weeks or if it looks frizzy once a week, after I am done plating her hair at night she uses a satin bonet to sleep in to help retain moisture, Or at times I will spritz her hair with aloe vera juice. My Goal is to have my daughter maintain a healthy head of hair, and also for the length of her hair to reach to its maximum potential. So over the course of her journey I will be putting up pics of my daughters hair journey, so you can post comments or any suggestions on how I can maintain my daughters hair so it can grow to its potential. Don't hesitate to give me any advice as well ok, So God Bless and Be safe!! I bought some new oils that I will be trying on my daughters hair, Hempseed oil, Grapeseed oil, Sweet Almond oil, Coconut Oil and my favorite Jamaican Black Castor oil. More pics are coming soon, I will try to do some comparison pics in the future. I will be doing acv rinses on my daughter's hair, I've noticed that she has alot of product build up in her hair, I didn't realize i was putting too much protein in her hair, The shea moisture products i bought for her all contain protein. Thanks to shlinda1 on youtube who provided this wonderful info!!
