Loving life with Locks

Well this weekend started with a bang.  Along with old school friends, we celebrated our 30th anniversary since graduating from high school.  Yes I said it. 30 Years!!!

We had a cocktail party on Friday night, where we hosted our old teachers.  The ones that we could find, and who were still alive and well. You know I had to try make the locks look smoking.  The weather was not cooperating however.  The hair looked ok, but not as nice as it can look.  We had quite a rain storm in the early evening and it was very, very humid.  Nevertheless, I did get lots of compliments.

Then the next day we went to the beach.  It was really nice to reconnect with old friends, whom I have known almost my entire life.


For the beach, I just used a simple head band to keep the hair out of my face.  No fuss.  No makeup.  Au Naturel.

This is the high school crew.  Not bad for having graduated 30 years ago!!

This is my family.  They tagged along and had a grand time.  We do love going to the beach.

Baby Lock Survival

Remember how I had a few baby locks installed at the front of my head a few months ago?  Well, there is one survivor.  Of the four or five new locks, this is the only one that "took".

Not bad huh?  It is the only one of the new locks that did not unravel completely.  And not only has it survived, but it is growing.










It has been raining almost continuously for the past 4 days.  The rainy season is upon us now.  I did a pipe cleaner set last night, and this is the result.  Because of the high humidity, the curls didn't last more than just a few hours.  But it still looks OK.
