August 2006 Model Profile

Greetings Rockinlocs and welcome to naani MODELS!  We were so happy to see that someone of such significance in the online locking domain agreed to share her story.  In addition to your expertise, we love seeing fresh faces around here and it looks like that in addition to yourself, you've brought a few recruits.  Now before we get into that, let's get down to the basics....

What did you like/dislike about your previous hairstyle?
LOL...well, I really can't remember much about what I liked about it.  I guess (what I thought) was ease of styling and the fact that it was (what I thought) was long-ish.  What I disliked about it was the fact that it broke off after it got to a certain length (usually right at the shoulders) and I didn't like all the money I spent on my hair back then.

How long have you been natural? 
I've been natural for 5 1/2 years

How long have you been growing dreadlocks?
I've been locking for 5 years

Why did you decide to go natural? 
I grew weary of the damage my hair was undergoing first and foremost and my first (positive) reaction to natural hair was via Sisterlocks (tm).  But as I read more, visited more sites and pondered the whole thing more, I realized that it was time to stop hating what God gave me and start learning to love it!
