I Cut My Hair! I'm getting [Dread] Locs! UPDATED - Pg 39!

Three coworkers and I tried to see it yesterday. By the time we got to the theater, each showing between 4:00 and 10:00 was sold out.:mad:

I'm going to try again today. This time I'll purchase the tickets on line. I should have better luck that way.:wizard:

Well? Were you able to get a ticket? I hope so! It was Number 1 at the box office this weekend! :thumbsup2



Hey Glenda, looking good!

Thanks Nie, I needed that! I went on Youtube and looked at other people's locs. They are soooo long. I hope I get a growth spurt soon. It's been fun having short hair, but now I want a little more length!
 
Thank you! Hopefully the next time we see each other at WDW, I'll be fabulous! :snooty:

Girl you are FABULOUS anyway!!!! :cool2:

Wish I could see the color better in your pictures, but I'm sure it looks great!

Hope you are doing well :goodvibes
 

cute video!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!

Thank You! :cutie: Like I said before, I may try to add more color this weekend. We'll see!

Yes, it was great:cheer2:

I'm going to see it again this weekend.:yay:
The next time I go, I hope its with a BUNCH of friends so we can all laugh together! :lmao:
 
Good Morning Everybody! It seems that the closer I get to washing and retwisting my hair on the weekends, the more I touch it, and keep trying to twist stray hairs around surrounding locs. My hands are in my head constantly. So when I got home yesterday, I wondered what would happen if I tried to braid my hair. I had no idea if it would work since my hair is so short.

Well, here are the results!

Now I'm sure you've noticed how weird my ends look - and how some are sticking out. Well, it wasnt untill I was actually doing it, that I realized that I had NOTHING to put on the ends! Fortunantly, I had some black pony tail holders.

Ideally, I should use those tiny black rubber bands that comes in a bag of a billion - but those pony tail holders were all I had. Here are more pics . . .

I think it took me about 30mins. It wasnt that hard to do. The only thing that made it a bit difficult was how short my hair is. When I went to grab another loc, sometimes the one I was holding would slip out of my fingers.

I think this is great for a first try! (Don't be too hard on me!) This week when I buy the hair color, I'll make sure to get the rubber bands. Hopefully I'll have this perfected in a few months, so I can keep my hands out of my hair!

Hope you all like it too! Please Post!

I have to say I like your hair better not braided, although it is so nice to have options :thumbsup2
 
:thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 I think the braids look great!

Great! Thanks! I needed to come up with something other than a decorative scarf, or hats!

Yes, I do like my hair "out" more, but I needed a decent option to keep my hands out of my hair, and leave it alone! Thanks for letting me know! :thumbsup2
 
Hey girl sorry for not stop by but i was sick and couldnt get online. I use the same hair dye for my hair it last a long time I use jet black so i only have to apply once but my friends that use the color has to apply atleast 3 times to get it the color they want it to be. It all depends on how light you want it to be. But i love the hair cant wait to see more. :grouphug:
 
The braids look nice.

Thanks DJ! :goodvibes

Thanks so much for the tip! The woman who recommended that rinse, told me the same thing after I told her what happend. This time when I use it, I'm going to sit under the dryer, even though the directions says you do have to. Hopefully it'll show up better! We'll see . . .
 
Look at you:thumbsup2 You are adding color and twisting. You are becoming pro.
 
Hey GMax! The braids look great!! You have such an awesome smile that you look great whatever you do with your hair!! :thumbsup2

LOL at you always having your hands in your hair. :lmao:
 
Hey everybody! I did add more color to my hair. This time, it did show up a bit better. HOWEVER, I still don't think it will come through in the photos, so I'm not posting any pics. Insted, I'll just post when I do it the next time.

When I was food shopping this weekend, I saw a woman with short locs that looked AWESOME! So of course I stopped her to chat about her hair. This was her second set of locs. After talking about her hair, I asked what she thought of mine. She said that she'd spotted me earlier in the store, and thought that they were beautiful (Yeah!). She thought that I was doing a good job on my own, and that doing it myself was good, because I was putting my own energy back into my hair. :cutie: So needless to say, I was greatly encouraged by someone with years of experience! Now to some replies . . .


Look at you:thumbsup2 You are adding color and twisting. You are becoming pro.
Thanks Lan! I must admit that I am very happy that I don't NEED to go to the shop anymore!

Thank You! :hug:

LOL at you always having your hands in your hair. :lmao:
Yes! It's sooo sad! I read about other people with locs doing the same, and I thought it was crazy - now I do it too . . . :rolleyes:


No matter how you wear your hair....you look GREAT! :thumbsup2
Thanks T! Hopefully I'll get to see you soon!
 
Congrats!! That is always a plus when the family likes what we are doing.
