Are Those Sisterlocks?

This is what my hair looked like as I prepared for a meeting to meet our new Senior Director. After the meeting, she spent some time with each of us. She and I talked about work then she asked me, "Are those Sisterlocks?" I was stunned, after I confirmed, she then went on to say she was introduced to Sisterlocks while living in another city where many people wore Sisterlocks. Guess where? Shout out to the Denver SL community for representing!

Then she further indicated that she has thought heavily about getting SL in the past and may now seriously reconsider. So, I hope I don't overstep my boundries by putting together a care package that will include a Sisterlock Journal for her. (((Lol))) Yes, she is a AA and a highly educated, intelligent and professional sister.

Creyole,

You are so kind hearted and considerate. You alone inspired me to go this route, so I think putting together a care package with a Sisterlock Journal will more than seal the deal for her to be on her path to Sisterlocks.

I wish you well in your new endeavor. I'm sure it will be a great experience and well worth it! Isn't it nice when someone recognizes our beautiful Sisterlocks?!

Score points for you!! It'll be great if you're the one who helps her transition into SLs. And what a great lock model she'll have!

Oh I don't think that would be overstepping at all. It would serve several purposes but most of all she will remember how thoughtful you are and the gentle nudge you provided in the right direction, which may inspire her to become someone else's gentle nudge (-:!

Honestly I have been considering making the SL journal subscriptions gifts for the women in my family. You may have just nudged me to to do it (hehehe)!

Each one teach one,
