I should let you all know...

I should let you all know that I decided to take down my twists and put my locking process on hold for a while. Last week, I had decided that I wasn't entirely ready to loc; and I missed my loose hair. I'm really happy with the decision and am not in any inner turmoil over it. I just wanted to experiment a bit more with my loose hair, you know. Of course, I'll still be documenting my exploits with my natural hair on this blog.

Sorry to have disappointed other freeform lockers out there =(

In other news... I had a pretty kick ass twist-out for a couple of days.

I was in the shower for 2 hours detangling this yesterday! No breakage really... just all the shed hair for the past month. And my hair is longer. Woopee!

My goal is to really work hard on moisturizing and retaining moisture. I went to the health food store on Thursday to buy some vegetable glycerin and almond oil; so hopefully those will help out in the experimentation. Another goal of mine is to learn how to cornrow my own hair so that I don't have to rely on mom. My motivation to learn how to cornrow is the possibility of wearing my hair in the popularized "fraux-hawk". One of these days I'll be able to do it.... one of these days...
