Now, I do have 2 dilemmas... I sweat alot... Yeah. I'm not proud of it, but there is nothing I can do about it. I workout in the evening when it's cooler, but I still sweat...
1. So my first dilemma is that my SLs are slipping and I have few that appear to be unraveling. I just got a re-ti a little over a week ago, but you can't tell.
2. I really want to wash my hair... My Locktician told me to limit the washes to 1 - 2 times between my re-TI to reduce my slippage. My hair is already slipping because of the sweat. I am afraid that the extra water, from washing, will cause more slippage or unraveling. :-/
Here is a picture after my workout...
This is a HOT day, after a 2.5 mile brisk walk/jog... |
My hair shrinks and the curly q's are curly... Well except for my top that is straight... |
See my edges, no definition... This is 1 1/2 weeks after my 1st re-tight.... |
So I have scheduled an appointment with my wonderful Locktician for Sunday... And hopefully she can give me some ideas on how to manage my hair better while working out, a simple rinse in between washes, and she can fix the unraveled locks...
I'll update ya soon...
Be Blessed!
I have had and still sometimes have the same dilemma. It's going to happen and it's common.
ReplyDeleteI was told by my loctician that it will be a while before slippage becomes a minimum due to growth of the locs---length and developmental wise.
Just be patient. I had a slippage this time and my loctician said it is mainly because I work outside in the heat under a helmet. So, you know I'm sweating all of the time.
Yeah, this is crazy! LOL! I have lost a few locks... I am going to my Locktician tomorrow...

ReplyDeleteHi! Just came across your blog and am perusing through. When I work out, I put my hair in two pony-tails, or pin it up some how. I also became concerned about unravelling locks (and 11 months into the journey, I am still concerned about it). Hope this helps! :)
