I literally woke up one day, looked in the mirror... and I suddenly liked my locs a little more.
I'm a little insecure about wearing my hair out and about when they're not manicured. I guess I just don't want to be a stereotype with dreadlocks. I want them to look "fashionable," "neat," etc. I know once they are fully mature and able to do a ponytail, they will look good with or without maintenance. (I prefer the free-form look). Some days I get frustrated and wear my old hair weaves when I feel ugly. lol
I finally have hair in the back of my head again. It would always break off whenever I wore certain weaves and/or relax and dye my hair. The only time it has ever grown was when I was natural. (It didn't grow with a professional either no matter how careful I was). Comparison shots:

I'm just glad my hair is healthy again. Anywho, it's my birthday weekend and I might take a break from this blog for a few months. The length has put me in a funk even though I know it's growing. (sigh) I'm just bored with the length. There's only so much to do with hair this short.
