having finally gotten sisterlocks after years of wanting but not being able to (mostly because there was never a consultant where I was living), I’ve decided to try and blog a bit again about the experience of my natural hair. But natural hair is not a new phenomenom to me. I have had most of my life–since I was about 17 years old.
this photo is of dr. joanne cornwell, the inventer of the Sisterlocks way of locking hair. her hair is long and lovely, albeit, too long for me! but i think she has done a nice service for women with spiral hair in creating such a wonderful styling option for natural hair.

Yes her hair is way to long for me. Looking at the picture I wonder if she dyes her hair. Just a thought.
From the beginning I knew my hair would be all scalp at first. I think I’ve conditioned myself to see my hair as lush and thick, but sometimes when visions of grandeur fade away – I want to gasp at how thin and scalpy my hair really is.
