Whatch this 4 year sisterlocks journey video, and get a bit of the good, and the bad of the decision to wear sisterlocks.

    I am so sorry for your loss and I completely understand. I lost my little brother last month and it was unexpected and learning to live life without him is challenging and it hurts so much. I miss him. I had a hair apt this week with my natural stylist to do my normal braid down but I had a consultation for micro locs. She held me as I cried and told me that lately people have been coming to her for a major change with their hair after a challenging life event. She then washed my hair and she carefully took care of me as I cried. Her care was intentional and compassionate. It was a therapeutic experience and then later we had the consultation. I left her shop feeling empowered and supported. My loc day begins at the end of February and I cannot wait. Yes, grief is so hard. Sending you hugs and love. I hope your family member and my brother met up there and became fast friends. ❤ New subbie. God Bless! 🙏🏾

      I am so very sorry for your loss. It is so kind of you to share. I’m not sure if I said it in the video (I can barely say it out loud), but I lost my baby sister. I’m glad you found a kind and understanding consultant. I hope you find communities of support to help you with the grieving process. I’m working on this very thing right now!

    First of all, so sorry for your loss. I know how that feels since i also went through the same once i finished my first year. Your hair is lovely has grown a lot and is thicker. I am in the fourth year now waiting to see how may hair will look once i reach year four. It a lot of confidence when i was beginning and i believed in the vision of how it would look like in five years. Having a vision is essential. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and i hope you will be well

    That's funny you wished you colored your hair prior to install. I did a fresh color (blonde) prior to install against my SL consultants wishes but, I wish I didn't. It would've given that hair to grow color free and be stronger. I have fine thin hair but, with SL it's no longer that way. I'm almost 4 years and had my first trim because my hair was uneven due to the locking process and color from over the years. I still love my color but, all my original color is gone.

    • @CristaStylista
      @CristaStylista  8 місяців тому +1

      Personally, I like the look better without relaxed ends, but I understand if letting go of length is difficult for some. Hair is so personal, I’d do what makes me most comfortable.

      Thank you for taking the time to make this video as you work through your grief. Sending prayers your way for comfort. I understand exactly where you are in your grief and it’s good you are working through it. I had not heard of the Hers Minoxidil for women. My dermatologist told me to use Rogaine for men because it’s 5%, but I’m happy to hear there is a minoxidil for women that is 5% and I’m hoping it does not cause the facial hair like the Rogaine does for me. How do you use the foam though? Do you use it in only the section that is thinning and do you do so only on the scalp without getting it on your hair?

      I don't love braiding and banding, but I do love a good braidout! On a regular washday, I think I'll braid the edges, and do big twists for the rest of my head. I'm not a fan of washing loose-so heavy.
