#ConfessionsOfALocdGoddess: Kids and Chemicals 

One day, my husband and I were talking about hair, and what my plans are with my daughter’s hair.  Since he was with me through my loose natural phase, and through my loc phase, he asked me how I would want our daughter’s hair to be. He first asked me if I would loc her…

My Review on Having a Personal Trainer

I have finally finished my 6 months of personal  training!  I wanted to do a review on it, because I have a new-found positive perspective on it. Before, when I would get serious about being in the gym and working out, I never considered getting a personal trainer.  My main thought was, “I can do…

I’ve been watching some loc videos and getting lots of wisdom and encouragement and came across this question: What do your locs do for you?  I decided to give my answer a try lol. When I first started my locs, I did not have a very significant story behind them, or specific goal I wanted…

No Scale Victories
