Hello Simply Soul Family.
It’s hard to believe that I’ve been on my sisterlocks journey for six years now. Looking back, I smile because, truth be told, I haven’t done much with my hair in all this time—and that’s exactly what I love about it. My daily routine is simple: every morning, I spray my hair with a little mist of water. Sometimes I’ll add argan oil or coconut oil, just enough to keep it soft. And on special days, my daughter helps me oil my scalp with a mix I created myself—a blend of coconut oil, argan oil, and almond oil.
I’ve also come to know my preferences with this hair. I like it at a certain length, so I trim it often. Over time, I’ve noticed some thinning, which I’ve learned is just part of aging, but even with that, I still deeply love my sisterlocks. They have been, by far, the best option for me. They serve a very personal purpose—helping me manage my migraines—and that alone makes me grateful for this journey.
Sisterlocks aren’t just about style for me; they’re about ease, health, and a sense of freedom. Six years in, I can honestly say I’ve never felt more comfortable in my hair.
As I reflect on this journey, I want to say this: once you hit 40 and beyond, life really becomes about making choices that serve you. Whether it’s your hair, your health, or your peace of mind, you deserve to choose what makes you feel good, comfortable, and free. For me, sisterlocks have been that choice. For you, it may be something else—but whatever it is, lean into it. At this stage in life, it’s all about creating ease, joy, and wellness in every way you can.
