September Re-tightening::Bunching Update, 2nd Retie with New Consultant

I asked myself how did I skip my August re-tightening post...then saw it in the draft, then remembered that I made a change that was totally my fault and I ended up editing my August post and it auto-saved, so I just took it down...sigh. Then I just looked and realized my September post was never posted. I have been full steam in a very productive season and I am now in a small lull. Quick Recap: I am seeing a new consultant (watch this video to learn why). On to September Age of my Locs: 1 year, 10 months, 10 days (or 22 months 10 days) Weeks since last retie: 5 weeks Length of retie:  8.5 hours...this has been the biggest adjustment to switching consultants. For those of you doing research on Sisterlocks, know that that timeframe is extremely high. I am used to 3-3.5 hours. Slippage/Bunching/Loc Repair: My super soft temple area locs, and only 2 from the nape area! Whoot!Whoot! The majority of my nape locs have made it through 2 re-tightenings! More about bunching:
