Jada's 3rd Retightening...My 2nd DIY








It's been roughly 5 weeks since Jada's last retightening and she was looking a bit rough and with it being Easter an all I figured what the hey let me retighten it and not just set it like i had originally planned. This will be the first year in 14 years that I have not spent Easter with my daughters but now that we're divorced and it is my weekend to work, I forgot about Easter. Well, I didn't actually forget but since the time will not be spent with me. For the first time I didn't have to buy dresses and Easter baskets and all of that. In any event, I am retightening her. To my pleasant surprise, it took me three hours to completely tighten her up and to braid her down. I guess the amount of time it took me to tighten my own hair gained me a little more efficiency with the Nappy Loc tool! She adamantly refused to be roller set even though it is Easter weekend! She drives me crazy sometimes but she wanted to make her daddy happy and wear cornrolls! You can see here the amount of growth that had taken place. She didn't seem as dry since i started moisturizing her weekly with the Sisterlock Moisterizing cream.......

I recently talked with my consultant about braidlocks for my daughter, so I think I may install them in May and take the retightening class in June. I still have to think about it some more though. Your moving fast with the retights!
