My hair is getting thicker. It's more so in the roots.
Slippage has been reduced by a lot. I have 2 locs which are impervious to the concept of locs. One of them I've even dubbed Houdini. No matter what I try (including making knots in the loc to reduce slippage it always manages to escape completely. So frustrating when all of the other locs have stopped doing it and have started to thicken.
My scalp is oily? I mentioned a while back that I haven't t been using anything in my hair after washing it. Even so, my 'dry' scalp is rarely actually dry. There's a enough oil to coat the scalp and add lustre to the strands. To go from an itchy, flaking scalp to what I have now is nothing short of a miracle.
I haven't seen any budding. . . at all. I thought for certain that by the end of month 3 I'd be budding all over the place. Not so. I barely get a little bud that hangs on to a strand or two of hair then breaks off within a few weeks. Not as disappointed as I thought I'd be but I must admit I've lost some of my initial excitement.
I have had to abandon the sisterlocks course in November due to a death in the family. It's been a long journey back to where I am now and I've still got a ways to go. But as they say, life goes on.
