Today, Celebrity Hair Stylist Kenni, gave me a hair cut to live for. Assemetrical with a new millenum twist. Jazzy. Bold. Edgy and just plain fly! As i that were not enuf, i also opted to seize the opportunity to use her skills as a colorist. she gave me a dark auburnish brown with golden brown highlights. Awesome combo.
I know, where are the photos? To that I answer, “not yet.” As cruel or negligent as this may seem, it’s only because the process is not complete yet. However, for her portfolio, Kenni took “BEFORE” photos today and “AFTER” photos will be taken tomorrow afternoon–after the last two steps in the process are complete.
Before today’s time with celebrity stylist, Kenni, was over; she had a conference call with my loctician, Kendrell. Via speaker phone we discussed the vision for my locs, the cut and the plan for retwisting pattern.
Step 3 begins tomorrow afternoon in Hyattsville, MD in loctician Kendrell’s chair. She will dampen my freshly cut and colored locs, and retwist them by palm rolling in the directions and pattern discussed. Because 10 to 16 inches of locs were cut, instead of 3 1/2 hours, I should emerge in about hour and half fully retwisted.
On to Step 4, From there I will return to Largo, MD to stylist Kenni, who will fine tune her cut based on the way the hair falls AFTER the final retwisting. She will take photos which I will ask her to forward to me so that I can share her BEFORE and AFTER photos with you.
Be here for what I expect to be the unveiling of FLL. Say what??!!? TFLL – The Flyest Locs in the Land.
For now, I’m knock, knock, knocking on Loc Heaven’s door.

Who I Am
I'm an author, inspirational speaker, vocalist, and performance artist. I was a heroin addict saved from myself and the lifestyle (with all the pain that comes with it) but the mercy and grace of God. Thus, I am a late bloomer; but blooming none-the-less. I've yielded every talent given me, and am now using them to encourage, inspire, and motivate others to discover and lives God's marvelous plans for their lives. My books include my latest, Walking On Water When The Ground Ain't Enuf; I Say A Prayer For Me: One Woman's Life of Faith and Triumph (Warner); 12-Step Programs: A Resource Guide For Helping Professionals; and Contributing Author of SistahFaith: Real Stories of Pain, Truth and Triumph compiled by Marilynn Griffith (Howard/Simon&Schuster). I also perform a one-woman show with comedy infused throughout. It's who I am--by God's grace--one woman on a journey toward unwavering faith.
