November 2016 Sisterlocks Retightening, Updates and Comparison Pics

My locs are 1 year and 4 days old. If you wonder how I am tracking the time, I use the same logic as I would do for a wedding anniversary.

From now until next year, all these posts will be labeled Y02 for Year 2, even though my locs are 1 year and 4 days.

Age of my Locs: 1 year, 4 days
Weeks since last retie: 6
Length of retie: 3 hours- that was fast...I think normally it has been 3.5 hours
Slippage/Bunching/Loc Repair: my temple area locs and one on my right side sideburn
Length: My locs are growing!
Fullness: The volume of my hair has increased beyond my expectations!
Buds: Several
Sealed ends: n/a
Other noteworthy items: My consultant said I will definitely need a grooming once my locs settle (which she would estimate to be in 2018). #teamSlow2Loc She also told me that I could probably switch from the Sisterlocks Starter Shampoo to the Salon Shampoo! Whoohoo!
