Sisterlocks Loc-versary: Seven years five months

 It is my seven years and five months Sisterlocks anniversary.  It is also Holiday time approaching New Year 2020.

I am still trying to find my niche as far as a corporate position or my foundation as an established artist via comedy and/or painting.

Half of undergraduate education is from Clemson University.

The other half of my undergraduate degree is from University of NC at Charlotte.

I enjoyed networking in December 2019 with both circles.

Sisterhood Anniversary: Seven years 4 months

 On this seven years and four months Sisterlocks anniversary, I am focused on hair color (liquid chalk) and body (weight loss).
After and before (shrinking core)

Usually, I post my favorite products around this time of the year, but not this year.  However, I will post some Holiday hairstyles in the next article.

Halloween Edition: Sisterlocks Anniversary at 7 years 3 months


It's been 7 years and 3 months since my Sisterlocks were established. The longer length allows for lots of creativity.

Obviously, I enjoyed Disney's Maleficent movie.

Cardi B inspired: Money and Power (Thanos glove)

Before Cardi B, Janet Jackson was my favorite artist.

Like Maya Angelou and Angelina Jolie's Maleficent, I rise like the "Phoenix."

My Sisterlocks at 7 years 2 months

I made it through my birthday month! I learned a lot about my hair in terms of hydration.  If it will not bend and stay in place then it needs hydration. A "dry curl" spray into the palm of the hand then applied to strategic areas works well with instant styling enhancement. I also applied full makeup with contouring.

 Because I started preparing for standup comedy, I applied strip lash extensions to see how I felt about performing in them. The Faux Mink version were light, quick to apply, and felt good.

So proud that I fought for justice for the young lady on my left. I unsilenced her. I unpacked 1990 and pieced it together. Through modern day counseling practices - I regained my confidence in my decision making. I reaffirmed that I was enough just the way I am. Welcome  Comedienne B'exponential!
