My Lochead birthday was so much fun!

I'm pleased with my results for now and I'll try to resist becoming impatient during the next 6 months, as my hair will probably go through a few changes.

There are many wonderful blogs here on natural hair and so many well informed ladies that I can't help but stay plugged in. So I hope my followers will too. Although, I'll only be adding monthly picture updates to my blogspot, and not much else. And of course the occasionally comment will be left by me on your blogs.

PS To all my friends who enjoyed Maxwells concert tonight in Clearwater, LF without me, I forgive you. But please Blog about it in detail and don't forget to tell how well was Chrisette Michelle's set.

Happily waiting my lock date 7/30/2009

Check out the little brother's HAPPY DANCE (over in the side bar! That's how I feel! Well, all consults are over and the loctician I've chosen for install has me scheduled for Thursday @ 2PM! So look for pictures next weekend!

Hey it's my hair, Mom let it go...

I can't believe this, my Mom is obsessing over my decision to lock my hair. I'm so annoyed by her comments. And get this she says "She's not ready yet", what is she bracing for, its my hair!

I wished I had known she had such deep feelings for my hair, I would have offered her the pleasure of paying for all those 8-14" long weaves I wore in the past. Why is it that our Mothers don't get it? Or at least mine doesn't. I've read on others' blogs that some women met opposition from the men in their lives but "not the Mama". What's up with this???

Create your own

Its a shame but, this is how I wear my hair 90% of the time. So its a good thing I'm getting locked.










Can anyone tell me what is my hair's texture, type or curl pattern?











Hey what can I say, fros are easy.

R.I.P. Michael

Truely the half has not been told about all the joy and good MJ brought into the lives of others while he was on this earth. What will it cost the US Congress to honor the resolution of this American Icon and Great Humanitarian? Nothing! So why let a few ignorant Congressmen silence the respect of paying homage to someone who gave so much of himself to the world. Please be mindful and vigilant of this issue, don't let his missed childhood me in vain. We owe it to our generation to advocate for this resolution to be passed, yes its up to us! Why, because #1: many of the esteemed chamber of Congress (being old) have no idea about MJ's music and major relief efforts combatting worldwide hunger and medical crises. And becasue #2: the generation to follow (bing young) knows little about how celebrated and accomplished MJ's music is globally.

More on this is sure to come in the near future. I would like to hear your thoughts too.

About to be locked up...

If I don't stop harassing every women I see with locks someone is going to have me locked up, instead of my hair. Seriously, I've never been so obsessed about hair in my life. It seems that from the moment I decided,"this is it, "by the end of the month I'll be locked", I can spot every "natural do" within a 5mile radius. It's really getting bad y'all... so bad that while in line at the grocery store my 11y/o son begged me not to say a word to the lady ahead of us (he noticed before me she had traditional locs). I hate to say it but I shamed my son right on the spot, I couldn't even help myself. By the time I paid for my food I knew this woman's entire hair history. Thankfully she was in the mood to talk hair, but I'm going to chill because my luck may run out soon and someone may not be in the mood.
So for now I sit here still happy, nappily waiting for my lock appointment.
