Back after two years with a Sisterlocks update!

After a two-year hiatus, we are back!

Life has been lifing – and has left no time for blogging or posting videos, but we’re aiming to put that right with more regular content.

Some of the highlights, while we’ve been away, include moving house and getting engaged (and at the time of writing this post, the big day has already happened – so look out for a blog post and video about the wedding hairstyle – coming soon)!

On the Sisterlocks front, my hair has grown a fair bit and overall I am happy with the way it is flourishing. 

What’s new?

  • I now wear my Sisterlocks up (especially when it’s hot, or when I’m at the gym)
  • I have a fabulous, new Sisterlocks consultant
  • My retightenings are every three to four weeks
  • I use other oils when travelling, when I forget my usual hair oil
  • I’m buying some off-the-shelf products – like shampoo
  • I’ve made changes to my henna mixture (blog post and video coming soon…)
  • I’m applying henna more frequently (to keep up with those fast-growing greys!)

What I’m continuing to do

  • Sleeping with a satin bonnet at night
  • Making and using my DIYS – especially my post-gym spritz to freshen the hair and scalp
  • Using my DIY amla oil regularly, especially on my thin edges
  • Low manipulation – as much as possible
  • Zero styling (except for the wedding)

So all in all – I’m still loving the journey and sharing it with you.
