Memorial Day Weekend in Detroit Brought Record Temps

Finally, it felt like summer in Michigan. The recordbreaking heat, although long awaited, was a total shock to many of us Michiganians. We went from weeks of being in the 40 -50ish degree mark to 90 plus degrees. Wow! It was HOT, HOT, HOT!!

I for one LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't wait to try out my new lactose tolerant existance at....yes, you guess it....Cold Stone Creamery. I, along with my family and children's godfather, Alex, enjoyed our own ice cream creations in fresh baked waffle cups! My waffle cup was dipped in chocolate in nuts...yum!! And I ate it all right there at the store.

How'd did I feel? Well, I was pleased that my stomach was NOT erupting like Mount St. Helens...but, I did has a bit of gas and by the time I got home I did have to poop. All in all...I'm STILL very pleased with having completed the Lactagen 38-day regieme because I was NOT in any pain and my gas was NOT foul. Furthermore, I went on to eat some of my children's ice cream that was left over a day later and I had NO violent gas or urges to "sit on the throne." I just ate the ice cream and went about my day. TOTALLY UNLIKE my experiences BEFORE Lactagen! I trust that first response was about as surprising to my system as the 90+ degree temperatures we experienced this past Memorial Day holiday. Most everyone had a sunburn story from Memorial Day weekend. Florida had nothing on Michigan by way of heat index THIS Memorial Day 2006!!!

Go Lactagen!! This product rocks!

Length to Short Bob Sisterlocks Hairstyle

Well, it has been about 2 years since my last post... (seems I'm mostly on my personal Facebook page and Google+ not to mention working towards completing my doctoral degree expected 2015 WhoopWhoop... but, I digress...) Here's what up... As the title suggests, I have gotten my length of 9 years cut into an Angled Bob. Now, while I had envisioned my Bob having a definite wedge from the side view... I guess my hair is just to fine to REALLY STACK HIGH naturally. That being said I do like my cut, but I was tickled by it because truly 'all things old become new again'. What I mean is that I HAD a permed Bob with a very short cut nape of my neck upon having my Sisterlocks installed back in 2005...and looking at my hair in 2014 it seems that I have started where I had come back then! (See the pic) Of course, THIS TIME the hair on the top of my head is chemical-free!!  This is ME with all my daughters...we all rock natural hair. My two SL'd daughters-- 2girls

Avoid Fat Sisterlocks Ends

"I want Sisterlocks like yours... I hate my fat Sisterlock ends!"   This typically happens to Sisterlock'd ends of hair with a thick soft wavy texture. After it occurs, the only remedy I have learned of to date is to CUT OFF THE OFFENDING ENDS. To avoid or control the normal swelling expected on your journey to loc maturity-- particularly, of the thick soft wavy hair type, follow the next set of rules: 1. BAND YOUR ENDS EVERY TIME YOU WASH YOUR HAIR. You may need to do so longer than the regularly prescribed time period until YOUR particular hair type locks. 2. DON'T wet, spritz or spray your ends with anything (Sisterlocks Moisture Treatment product included) unless they are banded. 3. When you shower, at the very least-- WEAR your shower caps my loc'd thick soft and wavy sistahs! Natural Journeys family, please share your fat loc'd hair end avoidance tips!
