As Ross Perot used to say, I'm in "deep voodoo."My recent post on loc'd nurses and docs' was wildy popular, but a few people felt slighted."What about us medical secretaries?""What about us in medical records?""What about us respiratory therapist?""What about us men?" ...Yada, yada, yada.

It snowed all day long here in Atlanta! An unusual occurrence and quite a treat for my children who don't see snow very often. The daffodils were already in bloom here and we were awaiting the forsythia! Typically, it will snow once a year, dusting the lawn and melting by noon. Of course, this generates about 48 hours of special weather reports on all of the local channels. And everyone goes to

Here are a few quotes from some of my favorite hair books. More to follow...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"'Natural hair? You must be kidding,' I would say. 'Why in the WORLD would I wear my hair looking like THAT?'...I knew nothing about my natural hair. It was that mess that grew out of my head...It was that unprofessional, bad, embarrassing stuff that if I were to wear in public, would doom me to

Nursing must be the most 'loc'd up' profession on the planet. I don't know about other cities, but here in the ATL, the hospitals are full of natural hair wearing nurses, many of whom sport locs. Of note, I know three nurses with sisterlocks and too many nurses to count with traditional locs... Curly, dyed, traditionals [Don't take my face! No make-up!] Loc jewelry My sisterlocks Dr. '

Phylecia posted some interesting comments about the value of investing in sisterlocks as compared with the costs associated with other hairstyles.Most posts I come across that discuss the cost of sisterlocks are posted by happily, locked, DIYers (let's face it, if one has the time, $0 is the right price!)But for those who are contemplating going natural, Phylecia's arguments are worth

What a challenge it is to capture the evolution of sisterlocks with my camera. I can feel changes in the size and texture of my locs with my fingers, but through my photos the only obvious change is in the length. As Cia promised, many of my locs that have truly locked are almost twice their original thickness. Most of those are on the crown of my head. The many micro-locs around the periphery of
