Today for church I did this quick and easy up do that I thought I'd share with my readers. I took these photos myself using a tripod, so they're not the best. Since I wasn't really happy with most of the shots I included several in the following slideshow hoping that collectively you'll gather a feeling for the style and the ease in recreating it yourself.
How To Create Your Own Up Do
Supplies needed: Hair tie, a few hair pins
Time required: 5 minutes or less
Instructions:
- Pull locks into a high pony, ideally using a hair tie. (Hair ties secure the locks without pulling or snagging, they stay in place and they don't give me a headache.)
- Gently remove a few locks along the front and nape of the neck if you so desire (to add softness)
- Partially separate locks in high pony down the middle, gently pulling each side towards the back, tucking ends underneath hair tie
- Smooth and shape, tucking any loose locks with hair pins
- Curl locks at nape of neck and front
- You're done!
Peace, abundance and light until we meet again.

Hi BlaqKofi,
Can I first say that your locs are so beautiful.
I want Sisterlocks now. Well, now I'm sure of it. I cut my hair about a month after I graduated from high school. I had stopped perming it 6 months prior to that and it started to break of terrible. I had been considering dreads and did some research. I came across Sisterlocks several months ago and liked them but I decided to go with the regular locks. I think I wasted my time mostly. I cut my hair in July 09 and got my hair twisted for dreads and hated them! Everyone said they were fine. I went back to the salon a few weeks later, and she completely redid them, much smaller and cuter(to me).
Since then I moved and had to switch hair dressers. The new one undid the previous ones and put some big ones in. I'm really fed up with it about now. In a week I'm planing on washing these out and just doing something til I can get with a Consultant.
Reading through your blog, gave me a chance to really see more pics of Sisterlocks. I'm pretty sure they are what I want. The only thing is, my hair is really short in some places, can I still get Sisterlocks?
