"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT HAS BEEN 3.5 YEARS"



I can't believe it has been 3 1/2 years that I have had my locks. I love them more and more each day. In these photo's this is me with my infamous roller-set (I am so addicted to the roller-set and twist-out). Thanks for visiting my blog and celebrating my 3 1/2 year Sisterlock anniversary with me.

Oh by the way my husband told me to stop taking pictures of myself and let him take the pictures and I told him I am so excited sometimes to get pictures posted on my blog that I can't wait for him to come home ((((Laughs))). But to get him more involved with my love of blogging I may have him start taking the pictures and I have to learn to be patient.

Thank you Jeannie! I know you are so excited being a newly locked Sistah. That is why I love blogging because when you are newly locked you see the potential of Sisterlocks when you visit other peoples blogs, it was a great inspiration for me as well.

Thanks Tammy.

Ms. Stella- Thank you and I am overjoyed! Getting Sisterlocks was one of the best decisions I have made in my life.

Girl those locks are "saying something!!" I can't wait till I am were you are. Those curls won't wait. Do you use any setting lotion to help your curls hold? I have soft spikes and get a nice curl, but it only lasts one day. They fall pretty fast so I don't often roll them. Congratulations on your anniversary.

Abena Abena said...

You asked me what I use for my roller-set. I don't actually use a setting lotion, I spray it with Infusium23 and the Sisterlock moisterizing spray and roll my locks with sponge rollers. I think the sponge rollers is what keeps the curl tight and lasting long. I have heard of some Lock Sisters saying that Lotta-Body works well for their locks when they are setting them, so maybe you can try that out. Also, I will lift the youth up in prayer, I know what you mean by what they are going through.

Thanks Maryee,
