6 months!!

Wow, it has been six months! My journey has been a learning experience. I have seen many different textures of sisterlocks. But have not seen one that looks like mine. :) The sisters that I have had the pleasure to meet have embraced me and shared with me their personal journey, daily routine, and the maintenance. Once again I am truly happy with my decision. Next Saturday there will be a Natural Hair and Beauty Expo in Orlando, Fl. at the fairgrounds. I will be attending (with my natural sistas). I hope to learn more about caring for my hair. My retighten in also on Saturday. Well, I will post pics next week from the hair expo and my retighten. Until then take care and LOVE YOUR NATURAL HAIR!

4th Retighten

Hello Everyone,
I had my 4th retighten today. I had alot of slippage in the back. I have been using too much moisture spray on my hair. My consultant (Sabrina) told me, instead of spraying it directly on my hair, to spray it in my hands and then apply. This time it took 3 hour and 40 minutes. The 2nd retight was 2 hours 30 minutes! I will add pictures later.

Castor Oil for Sisterlocks

Hello Everyone, I have been visiting other blogs today and have come across some information that I feel is worth sharing. I hope that you find this as informative as I did.

Castor Oil for Sisterlocks!
Benefits of Castor Oil!



Castor oil contains Omega-9 fatty acids which help moisturize the hair and the scalp preventing both from becoming dry.


Does castor oil help hair grow?

To my surprise YES!. Regularly applying castor oil to your scalp and roots to eliminate dry hair and promote regrowth of hair within months. It will also help to thicken hair that is thinning out. This oil is the best for going deep into the skin. It contains anti bacterial properties in it as well.


Helps reduce and prevent damage. Also can hide the appearance of damage while trying to improve your hair's health leading to thicker, fuller hair over time.


You can also experiment with adding some castor oil to your conditioners for a deep conditioning treatment. You'll have to experiment with the amount of castor oil to use to avoid greasy hair. I would start off with a small amount like a teaspoon or so.


Castor oil is versatile in that you can mix it with essential oils. If you are trying to improve circulation I would add cinnomon essential oil. This is a very good oil for blood flow, just a few drops though, cause it can "fire up" the skin pretty good.

I use castor oil on my hair and body as well, my breast in particular. It keeps the breast firm too.
