I don't feel like...

I have locks...if that makes any sense. I'm not sure what I thought it would feel like but I am pretty sure I'm not feeling it. I know these are sisterlocks on my head but when I look at them I don't see locks...I see something else. Don't misinterpret this at all...I absolutely love my sisterlocks...but I just don't feel locked. Maybe once they have grown longer and matured more...

P.S. I'm experiencing some shrinkage. I washed my hair earlier in the week and my hair looked long one minute and was shriveled up the next. I guess it's a good thing because it's part of the process but that does not mean I have to like it! LOL

Oh yes, I remember the shrinkage stage my hair looked like a dried out mop sticking straight out in the air (LOL), welcome to the teenage stage your locks are looking good and growing like wild flowers

Shrinkage just seems inevitable... I disliked it in the beginning as well but the shrinkage is ensuring your locks will thicken. Not having to worry about my hair on a daily basis was enough for me though...LOL!!

The length after being washed gets me every time....hehe!

Ha! My hair was SO all over the place for a year that I don't even remember going through shrinkage, but I had PLENTY of WTF's up with my hair days, let me tell you. Hang in there sis. You'll be aaight.

I remember that stage. Hang in there! You'll look up one day and this stage will be over!

thanks for the encouraging words everyone! it's great to know you aren't the only one who experienced the frustration. it is strange how i am loving my hair and yet it's making me angry at the same time lol. despite the shrinkage, however, people have noticed that my hair is growing!
