I digress.
After a couple of weeks of consistent exercise my scalp was screaming for a wash. The problem? I was just too terrified to wash my own hair and to deal with the mess afterwards. I didn't have the time to travel to my loctitian (7.5 hours away) so I knew it was time. Six days shy of my two month lociversary, I took the plunge. . . and LOVED it. Well, at the very least my scalp was thankful!
Here's a pictorial of how it all went down. (p.s. I'm still working on taking self-portraits so I continue to ask for your patience and also thank you for indulging me)
 |
| Before the wash. The locs really held up this month. |
 |
| Suave Clarifying Shampoo (first time using and had great results) + Joie MyGel + Clips = Re-twist! |
 |
| The aftermath. I was a little bit overwhelmed at the though of re-twisting. |
 |
| During and after the re-twist. Couldn't believe how much more budding developed! |
 |
| Here we are the next day. Second pic is a little fuzzy but shows all the budding. Definite thickening up! |
 |
| More next day pics. Loving my locs! I was proud (and still am!) of my efforts. Seven days later the locs are crazy fuzzy but that's life. I don't own a hair dryer so I had to let my hair air dry. Maybe that has to do with the quick return of the fuzzies. Who knows. |
That's it for now.

I commend you for doing your own hair. I'm still too chicken and too lazy. lol. It's definitely growing!
Thanks again FoxyLocs! I appreciate your encouraging comments. Not sure if I would have tried it if I lived closer my loctitian but as they say necessity is the mother of invention or in my case adventure :)
