Surprise! I have a new Sisterlocks consultant now! I know- you are thinking- What? How? Okay, here's the short story. I met this Sisterlocks lady at a restaurant about two years ago- BEFORE getting Sisterlocks. She gave me her business card. It said Registered Sisterlocks Trainee. Then I could not find her on the Sisterlocks website. Then I called her, and she did not realize that her name had dropped off the Sisterlocks registry. So I held on to her business card, but I felt uncomfortable not selecting someone from the Sisterlocks.com webpage. Well, as soon as I settled on a recommended Sisterlocks consultant, I tossed this inactive Sisterlocks lady's business card in the trash. Of course, everyone knows my Sisterlocks journey went sour, and I could not remember if I still had the lady's card or not. Anyway, I could not find it, then I ran into one of her clients. Her client gave me her number, but I forgot to save her phone number. Good Lord. I had lost her phone number again. Then finally, I met another one of her clients. I got her phone number for a third time. I made sure that I saved her number, and she completed my Sisterlock retightening session today. Oh my God, I feel like I hit the lottery. My head doesn't feel tight. She did not go through ripping my locks out. It was just perfect. I even taught her a few things for dry setting her own locs.
I think the fact that I knew my hair, my locks, and what is working for me probably made all the difference in the world. I even showed her how to repair a lock with the invisible/transparent thread. I actually think that she may be able to team together with me to get full head installations completed in less time. It is soooo great to have someone else to finally start taking over my hair. It is great that she was open to learning about what I have learned. God may not come when you want Him, but He is always on time.
My year of finger twisting was great because it allowed me to learn my hair. My locs naturally did not want to stay twisted so every time that I washed them they were becoming looser at the roots. Of course, some of my locks did fine with finger twisting, but for the majority of my locks, hand locking myself or having someone else interlock them seemed as if it was becoming the best solution.
As you can see, I am not too scalpy in the back of my head. So even though this consultant is inactive; I am the most please since I began my Sisterlocks journey. So how do I feel about consultants who are inactive with Sisterlocks? NO problem for me anymore.
