Okay, I can't lie, I'm having second thoughts. Within the past 2 months, I've spent over $100 stocking up on my favorite hair products, moisturizers, oils, conditioners and things of the like. And then, I started looking over my pictures, various fotki's that I have saved, loctician's prices. I'm having second thoughts!!! So, I'm thinking that I may just wait it out a bit, use up my products, do tons more research, and then set the date. My hair has been growing pretty well, and I'd kind of like to see what more I can do with it. Oh well, I haven't used conditioner in my hair since the week before I decided to lock. I cannot WAIT to deep condition!!!
I swear, I hate being so indecisive.

if you're not ready,take it one day at a time.
I also have many products and I had to give away most of my qhemet since they were too heavy except for the oils and the cocoa detangler ghee.
other than that, I still use my oils, i've been using conditioner since day 2 so all you need to do is make sure you rinse them out well...
you don't have to go to a loctician if you don't want to. I am not planning to go to one since i've been doing it by myself since day 1...
let us know what you decide :)
Take your time with it! Do it when you're ready! And when you're ready, you will know.
I must echo the sista above and say that you don't have to go to a loctician. You can do your own twostrand twists or coils and maintain yourself. It's surprisingly easy to do.
Good luck!
Loc sista Loc!!!!! I've had my sisterlocks for six months now and I'm loving everyday...
But then again, u shd wait till u're ready...when u are, u'll know. Keep us updated

I agree - take your time. I gave myself the hair goal of being able to wear my own hair twisted in a real 'hangin' and swingin' ponytail and I want to be able to wear a giant puff before I loc that way I have a few more years of trying out different lose styles and various products.
But for now when I get that 'loc itch' I just wear box braids and twists until they are mad frizzy before taking them out :o)
Just started locing myself after going back and forth for a year.
One of the things that finally made me take the plunge was finding out that people have successfully taken down their locs. Once I realized that there were other options to removing locs beside the big chop, I was cool. It's been a month and half and so far so good.
