Month 4

I went to get my 4th month re-tighten today.  I was very happy because I waited 5 weeks since my last Re-Tighten....  I will never do that again with intention...  LOL..

I sat in the chair for a little under 2 hours, and Wallah... my locks were groomed just as I like them!!  I am totally feeling my SL's and feeling myself!  Looking Naturally Fierce as a Diva Should!  LOL...

Here they are....

Braid out (After Washing)... 

He loves hopping in Mommy's pictures - See the length when it's stretched...
about 2 inches past the stopping point

I have no idea why I am not smiling...  I love the hair... Trying to be serious I guess...

Side Shot..

  Well, there they are...  They definitely look fuller than when I first go them.  (At least to me, my hubbz said he can't tell).  And I have some growth...  My son says my braid out looks like like a Jheri Curl... LOL...  I guess I naturally have what some people pay for...  

Well gotta go... See u in a few weeks.  

Week 17

Wow, it has officially been 4 months that I have had my SLs.  I am learning me, as well as my hair.  When you hear that SL is not only a hairstyle, but a lifestyle, it is very TRUE!  So, with those 4 months, I have learned one very important thing....

I prefer my hair within the first 1 to 3 weeks of the re-tight.  After that... it's no bueno!  Month 3 & month 4, I have been stretched to week 5, and I don't like it at all.

I am also learning that in my early stages of my SLs I should do more free-style and less styling.  Well, I have been styling my hair since day 1...  I have always liked some type of style in my hair.  So, I will work on the freestyle thing because I definitely do not want to ruin my SLs.  I may have to tighten my hair every 3 weeks instead of 4...  We will see...

Here is a picture of my hair in a semi freestyle...  It was curled with Pipecleaners, and this is about 3 days old.  You can't tell my length, but you can see my thickness.

Time to go... I will update picture after my retight on Sunday...
