Making the decision to loc my hair was the start of a new journey that I was eager to begin. I was in a place in my life were change was necessary for me to discover who I was and my purpose, as mentioned my previous blog. Now I had done enough research to learn that Locs can be simply a hair style or they can be much more. I knew they would be more for me, but I was not aware to what extent.
I had just turned 30, and was over living my life to please other; being concerned with what others thought of me. I was so ready to move in my own life the way I saw fit. I knew this meant completely accepting who I am.
Sources say, documenting your loc journey gives you something to look back at see your growth. Boy when I tell you, that is no lie! Watching my very first YouTube video brings tears to my eyes. I can remember the nervous feeling in my stomach, the hunger I had for growth, and the insecurities living deep within that I was trying so hard to overcome. Don't get me wrong, I am human, and I do still have insecurities. However, through growth, self acceptance and self love, I am now able to manage them.,
While watching other YouTube channels that focused on locs, and watching documented loc journey's I was inspired by their growth, and wanted to experience my own. I had no idea, I would be an inspiration to someone else, but I was, I am. I have been told time and time again, that because I am able to accept my frizzy unruly hair in the "ugly stage", it makes it easier for them to.
I used to look at others for inspiration and now I'm an inspiration?
Today I am still connected to a lot of my subscribers, and have even gotten a chance to bless their locs. My clients are also able to check out my videos for inspiration. This journey has been nothing shy of amazing and I can't wait to see what's next. Click the link below, get caught up, and subscribe so you don't miss the next upload! I have so much more in store, this is simply "The Introduction".
