Another SDA Sister Locked Up!

What you say??? What you say? Finally, after months of following blogs, researching locks and meeting several of the DFW SL ladies while out and about.... she did it! And guess what, she did them all by herself, well with just a little help from your 13 year old with parting. (SDA = Seventh Day Adventist)

I was so proud to see her when she showed up church sportin those baby locks! KR also locked her husband's hair almost two years ago and then two weeks are another one of our church members liked hers so much she asked her to do them for her too.

I went with a freestyle today only beacuse I'm crazy during this time of year and can't find time to put my Wrap-a-locks in. I miss my WAL

KR - Big Shout out to ya!!! Maybe you'll join us in Blogdom. hint...hint!

Thomasa II

I could not allow my friend to go into labor and delivery with "lock frizz." Most of us know how pregnancy can take a toll on our body, soul & spirit and we sometimes cannot do all of the Supermom stuff we always do. Soooooo.........

Today, I made Thomasa come in for a long overdue grooming. And look at the outcome, after three 2 1/2 hours ..what a difference! Her DH even called me when she returned home and told me how much he loved her new look! I was very pleased and proud my self.

I made her commit to coming at least every six months or so since she does her own retightening. Look at those beautiful locks that were hiding underneath all the frizz!

Remember Thomasa?

Many ask about Thomasa, she being the dedicated teacher she is, does not have enough time to update her blog and hold down her motherly duties to their 2 1/2 children. Yep, she is pregnant and her family is soooo excited!

Anywho, here she is 1.8 years later sporting her Braidlocks. I told her she will need a grooming soon, she can hardly keep up with her retightenings because of the hair growth resulting from the pregnancy.

Her hair is really spongy so it appears to be shorter than it actually is will pulled downard. So there you are

For those of who do not remember Thomasa, here is the pic of the braidlocks from our install day.

Thomasa Got "Locked"

Some of you may remember my buddy, Thomas Henry.. she was at the last DFW Sisterlock Gathering in December.

Well, after we left she was pumped up about getting her locks. She's been natural for five years and ready for the next stage but couldn't decide if she wanted Sisterlocks TM or Braidlocs....

Drum roll please....da da da boom shackle lackle lackle BOOM!!! She decided on Braidlocs and did all of the research on her own. Now, since this is my blog and I try to remain humble, this time I need to brag a little on myself...I did them for her!

Yes, we were up for seven hours on Saturday, February 4th from 6:30 PM to 1:30 AM watching movies, eating popcorn and having good ole girl time. When we were done she loved them!!

Thomasa is a elementary school teacher working on her Masters in Administration to become one of Dallas' community leaders as an outstanding Principal. This life style is well worth it for her and I'll save the rest of her story so she can debut on her own blog...coming soon.

Let's welcome Thomasa to our sisterhood!!
