18 months...
almost 19 months...
Pictures between 16 - 17 were lost due to a broken phone. Anywho, I will be 19 months loc'd in 3 days from today. I can get most of them into a crooked ponytail and that is enough to make me smile. I still wish they were a few inches longer but I'm ALOT happier these days with my locs. I think in a year from now I will be more satisfied. I've trimmed them, styled them, decorated them, and I feel much more comfortable in my skin. I feel like they are shrinking! They seem smaller to me now that they are almost fully mature. I feel more beautiful with my natural hair than I do with hair weaves... I just don't like how they look on my face anymore. I'm not sure what it is.
This picture was taken after a job interview... (sigh). One day I will be able to capture my locs into a neat bun and hopefully won't have to wear weaves anymore to look "professional."
Welp, Happy Halloween!
