Loc Meeting in the Ladies Room

Okay, really this meeting was out in the heat that's why we all look so shiny. BUT, I had the awesome honor of meeting Chocolocs (middle) and Creyole (right) is one of my loc idols. Creyole's sisterlocks r growin like a weed!!!!!!!!! Just beautiful!

Chocolocs was visiting my city for a wedding and chose to worship at my church with the family prior to the wedding. Someone pointed out some FIERCE sisterlocks to me in the congregation and it was her. After church, I tracked her down (Creyole was already talkin' to her) and we had a great time discussing our hair freedom. She couldn't believe that I did my own install and that my microbraidlocs evolved into locs.

I scolded her for not updating her blog because her hair has grown so much since her last photos on her blog. She promises that she has some pics instore for us so I can't wait to see them.

It was a pleasure to meet you Chocolocs and continued happy lockin.

I haven't posted any pics of myself to this blog until now, because I'm having camera drama. I'll download some pics shortly of the beginning of my journey. Unil then, check out Creyole's blog http://creyole.blogspot.com/2007/12/another-sda-sister-locked-up.html to get the 411 on my hair journey.

I will give you the jest. This pic was taken circa 4 months braidlocked. I am a die-hard do-it-yourselfer. I've been doing hair seems like since I was born so I decided to do my own install. I have approximately 430 babies on my head. This style was a braid out bang and bun updo.

I wish I had locked 20 years ago. I love my hair and the evolution it brings not only in and of itself, but IN me!
