February 2017 Sisterlocks Re-tightening (1 Year, 2 Months)

My February re-tightening was Friday, February 3, 2017.

Here's the video of my fresh and clean grid.


  • Age of my Locs: 1 year, 2 month, 22 days (or 64 weeks, 1 day)
  • Weeks since last retie: 5 weeks
  • Length of retie:  3 hours
  • Slippage/Bunching/Loc Repair: My temple and nape locs we re-established.
  • Length: no major changes
  • Fullness: no major changes
  • Buds: no major changes
  • Sealed ends: none
  • Other noteworthy items
    • The locs I accidentally cut:  all 7, plus an additional 2 were re-established/established...AND ONLY 1 SURVIVED since my last retie, so they were re-re-established
    • Are any of my locs fully locked? Nope
    • My consultant gave me the green light to use a small amount of light oil on my scalp if it gets dry. I must admit- I am concerned on this subjective term and how I might interpret the amount. So unless it is really dry on a consistent basis- I will hold off on using oils.
    • I also picked up a great smelling conditioning spray!

Exercise Friendly Style- Loc Hawk

Yesterday's post retie style just felt too "poofy" so I separated the ponytail into two to ...wait, that was confusing to type...into, two, to...REWIND! I split the ponytail and made two stacked ponytails. What do you think?
