Month 11 Retightening and Updates

It has actually been 10 months and 23 days, but Month 10.75 was just didn't seem like a good title...that looks like a fast food order amount.

Weeks since last retie: 6 weeks, 3 days

Length of retie: 3 hours

Slippage/Bunching/Loc Repair: my temple locs were re-established, no bunching and 2 locs had some slippage in the middle of them (Weird, right? But my consultant says that happens sometimes)

Length: The majority of my hair hovers around my chin, neck and collarbone.

Fullness: no noticeable changes

Buds: The majority of the back of my hair has buds

Sealed ends: none

Other noteworthy items: My consultant said my hair is coming along. I asked her to ballpark how long she thought it would be until I am fully loc'ed...she said 3 years (So two (2) more, right? Surely this first year counts and not a total of four (4)!).

Also, I say "my consultant" but I actually bounce between the two consultants who tag teamed my establishment. They are both awesome and I trust them both equally.

Here's the video showing my grid and post-retightening hair. Stay tuned! Next month I will be posting comparison pictures and a year 1 montage to mark my 1 year anniversary of having Sisterlocks!
