I've Hit The Wall

I always wondered if I would always love my sisterlocks. In the begining I thought I would always see them and smile. However, I've hit that proverberal wall. I am frustrated with my sisterlocks. I still love them but I wish I could do more with them. I've been loc'ed for 5 months and most of my ends are still loose. When will these bad boys seal? I hate my loose ends because they stick straight out instead of curling naturally. Yes I know I can rod my hair and have curls but sometimes I just do not feel like it. Actually, I've stopped rodding for the most part, because I felt like I was curling my hair too much and not proudly rocking the free style. But let's face it when you have short locks styling options is something that you can't have. If you have any suggestions , please let me know. I guess I got the sisterlock blues .... eh put it's all apart of the process. Every love affair has its issues, and we (sisterlocks and I) are have some issues. I'm getting baptized tomorrow, should I band my locks (LOL). Naw I wont be that vain, but my head will be submersed in water for a few seconds. I have no plans of getting rid of my sisterlocks anytime soon...... so I just need to get over it. I just wanted to vent.

Not to worry... I think we have all been there at one point or another in our journey. I recently felt the same way about my BL's. I just got sick of my hair for a couple weeks. Didn't plane on doing anything drastic, but just wasn't feeling them. I got over it and we're good again. There are and will be plenty of ups and downs through-out the journey... just be resolved to hang in there no matter what.

Oh Yeah, I have been there too.....many times. Starting SL from a TWA is hard b/c you don't have many styling options.

I became the queen of headbands and earrings and called it a day. Some times I would fluff my hair straight up and out and headband! I can actually roll my hair now and most days still wear a headband. I'm at 5 months SL.
