Hi Everyone,

I'm finally back with some pictures of my first shampoo and some updated pictures of my 2 week old SLs. I have washed my hair twice in 2 weeks, staying with my regular routine. I have that routine because I have dry scalp and absolutely don't want the "flakes" in my beautiful SLs . . .so far so good. During my second shampoo, I experienced some more slippage with about 4-6 locs and some that totally became undone (about 4 locs). I'm staying patient and inspite of the slippage and undone locs, still enjoying them. I have to remind myself that slippage is expected. I guess it doesn't seems as such a big deal since my hair is thin and blends in with the other locs even without being locked. I do think I will try braiding and banding for my next shampoo to see if I get less undone locs and slippage for the end result. I also notice my hair settling in and growing already. In about 2 more weeks, I will be going for my official follow-up appointment and semi-retightening. Notice the texture in some of the pics. Just imagine . . .I would have never known the joys of my beautiful and unique hair texture had I continued putting that creamy crack in my hair when I didn't need it. Thank God for natural beauty and what he created in me and so many others.

BANDING BEFORE WASH

RIGHT AFTER FIRST WASH

Until next time . . . . as always Be Blessed and Be Encouraged!!!!!
