I Tried the sponge rollers on my hair, and it came out pretty cute, especially since i had dyed it red the night before, then after a day or 2 the curls kind of dropped. But theres the before.....

the result the next morning was.......

I actually got a lot of compliments and maybe some potential converters because of how "funky" it was, only thing was, I was sad when the red color faded after a while......Considering i used Texture and tones...but i ended up dying it again a few week later....Thats the pic way at the bottom

RE_COLOR W/ Dark and Lovely

My 1st 21st LOL

2011-09-06T18:14:00.000-07:00

So, August 12th was my birthday and i turned the BIg 21!!!! I was beyond excited....I celebrated in Las Vegas with a few f my prophytes and my god-bro and his friends. I was really pleased with my hair though, i pulled off 3 different looks, which made me happy!!!!
The first night i crinkled my hair by cornrowing it the night before and let it sit for about 6 hours then took them out, then that night i did a side pony with bangs out, and then the next 2 days, i did a high bun. Which usually takes some time to get right, but my hair was on my side for my bday!!! :) needless to say, I was beautiful and so was my hair.

Beauty Re-Defined...My Sisterlocks

2011-07-05T18:05:00.000-07:00

After Spending an Hour or so on Facebook, I began to admire the pictures of one of my very popular Facebook friends. She's gorgeous, guys constantly compliment her because of her model-like pictures, though she doesn't necessarily have a typical model body, she has a video model figure. But as I look through her pictures, I think about whether or not I will ever get the attention she receives, not because Im insecure, but because I realize most men, though they complain about women wearing weaves, would rather have one who wears one, than one who is natural, and more specifically one who has locks/sisterlocks.
But even still, as I have accepted this, I refuse to believe that I have to in some way, compete with the "regular" girl, with the "regular" hair, and "regular" features that get them so much attention or put myself in situations where I will be perceived as equally beautiful by doing showing more or straying away from my "natural" look. If anything, by my hair being how it is, subconsciously I'm sending a message to my next "suitor". A message that implies...."It takes more to impress me than the average girl, while I've been told, I was beautiful and gorgeous, I need more...challenge me mentally and intellectually, show me you appreciate a woman who can defy the typical ideals of beauty"
It took a while, but I love the 1 thing that makes me not average. Its been a struggle....but its made me into a stronger woman.

So,Ive recognized that many people get offended when i ask them if they have sisterlocks. At Venice beach one Day this "brotha" selling heAD wraps, had the nerve to tell my mom, and my sister and I that we didnt have REAL locks becuz they werent done properly......sO wHAT DeTeRmInEs real lOcKZ?

No MatteR HoW ThEy WeRe DoNe And if anything, he should happy to find "sistahz" embracing their TrU natural beauty. Its so funny how ppl get caught up in HOW things are done, Rather than the ReSuLtz....... I ThOuGht by gettin LocKz I'D escape the HatErz And DraMa....

So YoU MayBe wondering where I've been, Well, let me tell you! In the span of one month, I lost my Goodwill job, started taking my El Camino College classes Astronomy 20 and English A for fall and I began my first year as a high school Senior. Although, I lost my job, I think I'll do fine without it, because it allows me to spend more time to focus on school and college applications to my top 4 colleges, Loyola Marymount University, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, University of Arizona, and San Diego State., and spend more time with my friends and boyfriend LoLxx. But I really need help with is.... How Im going to where my hair for my senior pictures coming up in a few weeks, and I need some help, with these baby Lockz i feel like I cant really do much. NeeD IdEas ASAP!
