Just kidding... Lottabody DOES Work on MY Sisterlocks!

Hmmm, well, I guess I figured out my Lottabody to Water ratio... 
I sure needed to because as you can you see, I have a half bottle of the stuff yet to go... and this large bottle WILL LIKELY last me for the next 9 years... lol!

Cute! I apologize if I missed it....did you use the lottabody at full strength? (Sisterlocked for 2 1/2 years and I am finding that the longer my locks grow the quicker my curls fall)

Good point on the length factor... but I truly had tried full strength (not loc for loc just as a misting over my hair while rolled). In this video though, I still have diluted the more blue solution in the foam pump bottle...

Seems to me that I have found with my hair now SHORT in the back and LONG in the top, my hold is a function of my hairtype and its thirst for water manifested thru humidity. In the winter, my hair at its longest point would hold curls NO PROBLEM! Don't let me put setting lotion on it too in the winter...I'd have curls until I'd wash it.

I'm not negating your point though... my SHORT SHORT hair in the back of my head KEEPS A CURL even sleeping on 'em using Lottabody. Thanks!

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!
