Day 143

Dear Carey almost kinda sorta practically had a fit because I didn't write about Brunsli's response to my questions in Day 137. Dear Carey, can't read Brunsli's blog because blogger blogs are blocked on work computers.

Well, Dear Carey, let me tell you about what Brunsli said about her hair. I asked Brunsli if her hair felt like yarn or fuzzy braids. Brunsli said her hair feels like yarn, not the cheap stuff but the good yarn like the soft yarn Sandra buys for many of her knitting projects. So, that means Brunsli's hair is really, really soft, like I thought.

I also got a soft and bouncy confirmation from Brunsli's husband.

Krystl, another Sisterlocked blogger, commented on my blog and she too, says her hair is soft.

Both women have soft hair and said that the feel of one's hair depends greatly on the texture and the care given to the hair.

So, I could either come out with soft and bouncy hair, or hair that isn't so soft. It all depends on how I take care of my hair.

Now that I have an idea of what locked hair feels like, I'm like 98.7% sure I want Sisterlocks.

Everyone with blogs chronicle their hair journeys usually start the few weeks before the locks are installed. There will be an 18-month period between my discovery of Sisterlocks and actually getting them installed. This is a permanent hair change and one that I want to ensure that I truly want.

Now for the reason, it will be so long before I actually get Sisterlocks. Well, at the moment I'm in school and I don't have 3 days to devote to my hair unless I take a break from school and I want to finish school more than I want to do anything with my hair.

(Betty don't do it!. [I'm watching Ugly Betty and her baby daddy boyfriend asked her to marry him.] Yuck! Betty, go to Italy with Gio, the man who also has deep feelings for you and doesn't have a baby mama who will make your life miserable! Plus. you have an all expense paid trip, first class plane tickets and five star hotels at risk here!)

Now for reason number two. I currently live with my mother because going to grad school and living in California is undoable otherwise. She specifically said that she will not let me stay with her if I lock my hair because she will not live with a Rasta chick.

I can't wait to finish school.
