Okay so I know its been a while since I've made a post but I've been a little busy but i'm here now to give the updates.
So I had my first re-tightening and it didn't take very long which was great. One thing I have to say about my hair is that its growing very well. My consultant even said that it was getting thicker!! Which for anyone that has thin hair is always great to hear. The biggest issue I have faced with my hair is that it gets really dry sometimes. As most of you probably already know when you are starting sisterlocks you can't use any products like oils and creams on your hair. My issue with this is that my scalp gets really dry so one thing I started using was this,
Okay so this Cortaid Spray really helped with my hair because when my hair gets really dry I get dandruff really bad so I really have to keep it moist. I usually spray it every morning and I'm good for the rest of the day. I really love this stuff. So if anyone else out there has a problem with dryness on their scalp and patches of dandruff when it gets too dry then you should definitely try this.
So next week or so is my next re-tightening and I will definitely post pictures then because I forgot to take pics after the first re-tightening (Sorry).
But as far as my one month review I could not be happier with my decision to get sisterlocks. People have come up to me asking if they are really tiny braids and how nice they are and it usually takes a few minutes to really explain what they are but I absolutely love them. People always seem shocked when I tell them how much I paid for them but I actually got a really great deal and so I guess for me so far its all been worth it. This next re-tightening is when I have to start paying for the re-tightenings so we will see if I'm singing the same tune after a few months of payments. But I did make sure to budget that when I first made the decision to get them do hopefully I wont have any regrets down the line.
I'll be sure to post after my second re-tightening. :)
