| Monday..... December 2, 2002 I am feeling somewhat confused right now....a LOT of changes going on in my life....and naturally...when something feels out of sorts my hair is effected...sigh.... Okay...here's the thing...I had been working like a field hand to keep my locs looking well groomed and...well...nice...it's simply a matter of personal pride for me...But this past month or so I haven't been doing much of anything to them... I mean...I waited almost THREE weeks to wash them after I got back from OKlahoma with the kids...now I NEVER do that! I also haven't latch-hooked them at all since about two weeks before I went to Oklahoma...I took the latch-hook with me...I intended to do them there...but I just didn't ....FEEL like it!! So all I've been doing is wetting them down in the shower...misting with a little herbal tea spritz...applying some shea butter moisturizer or olive oil....and that's it! I roll them sometimes...and yet I cannot believe how much hair is growing in from the roots...and I cannot believe that that hair is already LOCING!! How the hell did THAT happen???? I always pride myself on knowing exactly what's going on with my head...but right now I am pretty perplexed...sigh....I'm not unhappy with what's happening..I am just....confused....lol.... Several months ago...when I had jacked my hair up, I KNOW I broke and weakened a LOT of rootbeds....I lost a lot of hair in the process...and now..that hair is growing back in...thick...lush...locing...I keep wondering if the hair is doing this because I'm NOT manipulating it????....or is it because right now I call myself experimenting??? Okay...here's the great experiment....I have been kicking it with a lot of Rasta's...and in the process...I've...GROWN...I cannot explain the growth...but the point is the simplier things in life mean much more to me...and maintaince on my hair is NOT one of my priorities....lol....I think meeting Moyo...and seeing his 26 year old locs just doing their thang has given me a greater appreciation of what I am doing....I am growing DREADLOCKS....for real....honest to goodness dreadlocks....I mean..right now I have locs...but what's growing in now are real dreadlocks....I wonder how they will turn out....hmmmmm..... For some reason...mini-me has been VERRRRRY quiet lately....lol...I wonder what's up with that????....I keep waiting for her to pop up with something wacky...but it's just not happening....yet....it's been so quiet lately....almost TOO quiet....I just don't... trust her.....lol.... I've posted this question about what's happening to my locs at LadyLocs....and no one could really explain what is going on...can it be that I have finally reached that utopian state where I don't have to trip AT ALLLLLL????....oh my....stay tuned....ya'll say what??? Have I reached ZEN....lol.... ....just me...daez Thank you God for giving me another day of life....AMEN..... |
