What did you like/dislike about your previous hairstyle? I've worn a relaxer since I was a child. I don't like that my hair thinned and broke off over time as a result. I tried to give it a "break" once a year by getting it braided, but that only stopped the thinning for a short while. Likes? It's hard to say. Having had a relaxer so long I really forgot that my natural hair was NOTHING like the relaxed stuff.
Was your hair natural before you got Sisterlocks? Why/Why not? My hair was partially natural when I got Sisterlocks. You have to have about 3 inches of new growth in order to get Sisterlocked. My ends are still relaxed.
If you went natural, what method did you use (i.e. cold turkey, growing it out...)? Why did you choose this method over others? I grew it out-first with cornrows, then with micros. I wanted to hold out a bit longer so I had some more new growth to work with but I was too excited and after 6 months of braids I got Sisterlocked!
How long was your hair natural? How long have you had Sisterlocks? Not really sure. 3 or 4 inches would be my guess. My Sisterlocks are 4 months old at this point.
