Paper Bag Curls on Bradelocz

So I was in the mood for curls…

And I wanted spiral curls…

I asked a friend of mine about her spiral
curls and she suggested Spike Curlers…

Well, I didn’t have any Spike Curlers…

So, I resorted to an old fashioned method…paper bags! [Read more…] about Paper Bag Curls on Bradelocz

Cherie’s Update 2012

OMG!  I can NOT believe that it has been almost a whole entire YEAR since I last posted anything!!

Wow…well, I have definitely not forgotten about you nor this blog but life has been a bit hectic and I was trying to sort some things out in my mind about this site, which I will share in just a bit.

But before I get into all of that, I wanted to share with you an update on my hair! 🙂  So it’s been exactly 23 months to this very date since I RE-started my new Bradelocz journey…next month marks 2 years of my new set.

They’re coming along nicely and I’m learning some new things that I didn’t really pick up on the first time around such as what bunching really is and ways to deal with that (I’ll talk about that in another post).  I have also been trying different things in terms of whether or not I wanted to use shampoo or to “no-poo” or if I should shampoo and not condition but instead, use a moisturizer.  I’ve still not found that one, “magical” product or procedure which is precisely one of the reasons I never get into making product recommendations when people ask me.

Not all things work for all people is what I’ve learned.

Anyway, I’m loving my locs and here are a few pics so you can see what they’re looking like these days:

How Important is Meticulous Parting For Starter Locs?

One of my Bradelocz customers asked…

“How important is it that the parts are lined up evenly, brick-layered or just wildly braided?”

And there really is no right or wrong answer to that because it all boils down to personal preference.

When I started my initial set of Bradelocz, I made the sections in the front as neat as possible.

But once I got to the back, I got lazy and began to randomly grab sections of hair with no actual sectioning – I guess what was referred to as “wildly braided”.

Cherie’s New 1-Year Bradelocz Anniversary

My oh MY how time flies!

I totally forgot that on November 11, 2011 (same as my wedding anniversary) marked one year being locked this second time around.  Seems like it was just yesterday that I posted 6 month updates (at least I “think” it was 6 mo)

But anyway, it’s been a very interesting ride this go-round. [Read more…] about Cherie’s New 1-Year Bradelocz Anniversary
