omg!!! you too?? when did you take yours down? my hair is so super coily i don't think the 5 weeks it took me was customary. :rolleyes:

what i find hilarious is that a lot of women say they love how fast their hair grows in locs but my hair is actually growing faster without them thanks to my new healthy hair practices. go figure :look:


i took mine down this past august after having hair shedding issues after having my daughter. took me 2 1/2 weeks and they were small lol. i did a few each night after work and puttin the baby to sleep NEVER AGAIN lolol but mine were 8 yrs old and mid back and i cut them to shoulder length and picked them out. im still natural now, tryin to keep it straight to help maintain length. im still having shedding issues but im sure its still "after pregnancy related" anyway, still tryin to learn the protein/moisture ratio and see whats good for MY hair lol..i get the urges to relax sometimes then it passes...anywho, here's to continued, happy healthy hair growing *Cheers* (Clinkin imaginary glass lolol)

I love your story and how you are taking to heart the "each one teach one" mantra.

BTW: I honestly never knew you could take out locs. How cool is that?
