A Major Setback

So, I had to take down my two-month old twists (which were just starting to lock) because my ever-present but normally benign eczema had been flaring up for the past month, leaving really disgusting and large flakes embedded in my twists. And in order for me to have the condition treated properly, it's best that I have loose hair (says the dermatologist). My twists were rather thick and so to apply my doses of cortisone cream I would need easier access to my trouble spots.

I'm not entirely saddened because who wants dreads with huge scalpy flakes embedded in them? No one? Thought so.

And in lieu of it all, my growth is astounding!
This is me after a good wash, deep condition, detangling, moisturizing, sealing, twisting, and twist out...
