I recorded this experience to make into a video for my youtube channel, but my tablet is being less than cooperative and I am having fits getting the videos compiled. As such, I will record shampoo number 3 (shampoo number 2 will be performed by my consultant at her salon).
I shampooed my hair at slightly less than 2 weeks since 2 weeks would have been the day after Thanksgiving. Instead, I shampooed my Sisterlocks the day before Thanksgiving.
Braiding and Bundling- I put my hair into 12 two-strand twisted bundles and used silicone elastics to band my hair.
Shampoo- 7 oz of water diluted with 1 oz of the Sisterlocks Starter Shampoo
Shampoo #1- focused on my scalp, not much lather, rinsed
Shampoo #2- focused on my scalp and then squeezed the solution into the length of my locs, more lather, rinsed about 4 times
Drying- used my Turbie Twist to dry my hair for about 15 minutes
Styling- roller set using approximately 20 satin-covered rollers
Slippage and Unraveling- I think that I either lost 1 loc to slippage or the hairs were loosed from a nearby loc. Said loc is in my temple area which was an area my consultant was going to keep a close watch over anyway.
Aftercare- I did liberally spray my scalp using the spray my consultant advised me to purchase/use.
Overall Thoughts- The process was not as daunting as I imagined. All in all, I feel I had a successful shampoo! My scalp feels clean and my hair had a nice sheen.
