Happy Belated Anniversary to me! December 8th 2009 marked the 3rd year of my wondrous Sisterlocks journey. From tons of questions and almost obsessive attentiveness to my hair, to now barely looking at or "messing" with my hair before I walk out of the door, I look back on my decision to be SL'd with absolutely no regrets and no plans of ever going back. Even though I've been unemployed since September 2008, it seems like I've been busier than ever. In addition to an already full plate, most recently I've gone back to school for a Microsoft certification(s). So nowadays when I
do take the time to look at my locs, I'm so pleased. This is one of the best decisions I've made in my life and it gives me a profound feeling of pride in the sense that "Yaaay, I did something r
ight!"
To Dr. Cornwell, all those SL-ers who've gone before me, those just starting out and those yet to make the decision - YOU ROCK!!
Thanks for stopping by and celebrating with me ...

Hey Lady, U look mar-ve-lous. U should be doing commercials and advertisements for beautiful, gorgeous hair. Thanks for the updates.
What products do you use/recommend, your locs look GREAT. and how did you achieve your look in the photos?
Happy 3 Year Lockversary!
Your locks are so beautiful!
@MsJamison - what a great compliment! ... and that's definitely an occupation I would enjoy - not just saying that cuz I'm unemployed either - LOL!
@Anonymous - thank you for the lovely compliment as well. I use either Lottabody setting lotion/liquid or Taliah Wajiid's (sp?) LockItUp setting gel. I twist a small few locks together and then roll them all or part way (depending on how tight I want the curls) on SoftSpike curlers. It's a really simple routine that works for me and my curls last very well until I'm ready to wash my hair again -- about once every 2 weeks.
@BrownButtahFly - I am so flattered when the SisterLock "vets" visit and leave a comment - LOL! It's been so much fun following your journey & I really appreciate the compliment. To you and all the ladies here -- keep rockin' those locs!
From your photos it's hard to believe only 3 years have passes. Your locks have matured beatifully in such a short time. I agree with Ms. Jamison...your locks are a walking advertisment. YOUR LOCKS ROCK!
So lovely. Keep doing your thang.
Indeed your locks are beautiful. Happy 3 year locversary!!
oh wow - look at your hair! Absolutely fabulous!
LOOKING GOOD! Keep up the good hair! :)
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful! Michelle, it's been just splendid watching you in your journey. Wishing you all the best!

Maryee, thank you so much! Believe me, I appreciate everyone who takes the time out to stop by my blog AND leave comments, but especially a "vet" like you. :-) As they say, "YOU da one", and I thank you so much for being one who has paved a most gracious path for us to follow.
Bless you, dear! :-)
Your hair is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for the blog and the inspiration.
