Well people, I ain't as daft as I look, I got help with my first wash!! (VIEW PICS FROM BOTTOM TO TOP)
1) First of all my hair was put in bunches (not braided because my hair was too thick in areas and too short in others)...aren't they just pretty???
2) Then my hair was dampened with a mixture of Ayurveda shampoo (means science of life) and water from a spray gun.
3) Then the actual bunches were squeezed individually to ensure proper saturation of mixture into the hair, whilst the base was patted gently.
4) Finally the hair was rinsed using tepid water from the shower ensuring at all times the water pressure was very low. Too high ladies and gents and you will literally blast away your consultants hard work!!
5) Rinse well to rid your locks of any shampoo residue....(it is certainly worth the extra minute or two of TLC!)
6) Towel dry hair gently to absorb excess water.
7) Individually remove bands by pulling one part of it with your fingers before inserting a pair of scissors and snipping: and like magic, they unravel themselves from your locks. (GOES WITHOUT SAYING HERE FOLKS......BE VERY CAREFUL YOU DON'T SNIP YOUR LOCKS!!!).
8) Working bunch by bunch, separate each lock from the other, (this is very important especially if there is new grow....these babies love each other so much they want to bind with each other!!). Speaking of new growth, can you see the grey babies saying hello again???
9) Once every bunch has been attended to, you may blow dry to speed the drying process........but again use very low gentle heat and work in a circular motion. (Personally I prefer air drying).
10) Last but certainly not the least, style as desired. THAT'S IT.

Your microlocs are lovely. How many hours did that take? I like your 'banding' method.
Thank you for visiting my blog Anthia-ofo. Gosh we are practically neighbours! I was in St.Albans only last Friday...a quick visit to HomeBase.
Yes my locks took just under 24hours spread over 3 days. The time just flew by!
Your little pixies are so cute, I like your method of banding also. If I had the length I would choose this method also.... Your looking good gurl....
We are of like minds, glasses,gray hair, and lets not forget the nose piercing..
