I had a awesome time at the Oklahoma Naturals event here in Oklahoma City. I met so many naturals and I truly believe the natural revolution is finally taking over in the Midwest!
I also talked to YouTube Sensation Beautiful Brown Baby Doll who is also known as Dr. Nina. Nina is just as beautiful in person as she is online :-)
I was also a speaker and my topic was Understanding Sisterlocks & Brotherlocks
My good friend Shirlene owner of Go Natural 24/7 was in the building.
I want to thank Attallah & Diane for helping me at Oklahoma Naturals Event! You two were awesome!
It's so amazing how time flies! My Sisterlocks are still on a wonderful journey. I took pictures of my locks after washing to show the length. My locks started uneven so it doesn't surprise me that my locks are still uneven! My locks seem to grow on the sides faster than my mid section. So I will eventually cut my locks to make them even some time down the road.
I'm looking forward to year five and cant wait to compare my growth.
You can check out my 3 year pictures in the archives marked November 2010.
So after I finished my awesome client's retightening I wanted to put her 2 yr old Sisterlocks in a funky updo that took actually less than 5 minutes! This Queen loves to style her Sisterlocks so she was more than happy to get it Loc Rockin!
My client loved the finish look and gave me a high five lol!
I took some before & after pictures with my cell phone. Let me know what you think!
Ok it's not how it sounds... I mean I bumped into a guy with long locks here in Oklahoma City! Let's call him "Mr. Locks"
I happened to be out eating Sunday brunch with family and our waiter comes walking up but this is not what made me do a double take! It's when he turned around to get the drinks my eyes and mouth popped wide open lol. My family knew what I was looking at because I'm all about the locks.
When he came back I asked him how long has he been growing his locks? Mr. Locks stated he had them since he was a little kid. He always had his locks and he has NEVER cut them! Mr. Locks also said he does NOTHING.... his locks just lock up on it's own. No palm rolling & no twisting here.
BTW he was a awesome waiter and we gave him a awesome tip ;-)
After watching this preview of the MJ Immortal World Tour I was blown away. I have VIP tickets to see the show in Las Vegas at the end of the year and I can't wait!
I'm already a Cirque du Soleil fan as I have already seen the Mystere, Zumanity, and Alegria. So I know how awesome these show can be but after reading the reviews I believe this MJ Cirque du Soleil production is a showstopper!
I want to thank everyone again for leaving a review. The names were put in a bowl and my son Chris reached in and pulled out a name and the lucky person is drum roll please
Congratulations Jahnel P.!
Remember each month a lucky Sisterlocks or Brotherlocks winner will receive a FREE retight!
***UPDATE*** Due to business expenses the reviews monthly drawing will no longer be a free retight. Beginning 1 October the winner will receive a 30% discount on a retightening! Which is still a awesome prize! YAY!
Alright ladies I was looking for a easy quick style to do and I went to my favorite place to find styles which is Chescalocs Channel on YouTube! Chescalocs curls are from pipe cleaners but mine are from a twist out. So it dosen't matter how your curls are started! Curls can be from a braidout, twistout, rollers, pipe cleaners, or wrap a locs!
Chescalocs locks are bigger, fuller, and longer than mine so I will say my curly bun is definitely a modification curly lock bun specific to what I'm working with lol.
After taking these pictures I noticed I have different colors flowing throughout my locks so I will add a disclaimer "No extensions were used"!
I have attached the Chescalocs video and I recommend subscribing to her channel if you have not done so already.
I was shopping at a health store in Little 5 points, ATL, GA when a gentleman walked by me with a head of long gorgeous locks! This King has been growing his locks for over 15 years. When I took the picture he was amazed by the back of his head. He stated he has not seen the back of his head in a long time! We laughed at that revalation and I thanked him for being so nice to let me photograph him.
When I visit the ATL the men never disappoint when it comes to natural hair...I would love to see more men rock the locks here in Oklahoma City! :-)
