LOC UPDATES ✨🍋🫶🏾

2024/5/15 Edited to

... Read moreLocs have become a popular and empowering choice for many individuals seeking a unique hairstyle. Embracing locs symbolizes a journey of self-acceptance and personal growth. Whether you're just starting or deep into your loc journey, one thing is clear: every person's experience is distinct. Many enjoy the freedom of letting their hair develop naturally without the need for constant styling. As seen in my journey, the advantages of this method are numerous. Frizz, often viewed as a negative aspect in conventional hair care, can actually represent the beauty of natural hair textures and individuality. Accepting imperfection leads to confidence and a greater love for oneself. It’s not unusual for loc wearers to experience dramatic transformations in their perception of beauty as they grow their locs. Additionally, the time saved on hair maintenance allows for more moments devoted to self-care and personal interests. Aside from the physical transformation, growing locs can also have deep emotional benefits. It’s a journey of patience, commitment, and celebrating each stage of hair growth. Many find that documenting their loc journey through photos and sharing experiences online fosters a sense of community and support. There are endless forums and social media groups that offer inspiration and advice for those navigating the world of locs. Moving forward, if you're on a hair journey of your own, remember that it’s okay to embrace every phase, frizz included! Continue to connect with others who appreciate the beauty in each stage. Remember, the most important part is learning to celebrate who you are, locs or not!

Apple Calendar updates I love
so I have updated my macbook air m1 to the latest macOS Sequoia 15.0.1 and my calendar can finally link with reminders app! I can now add due dates over on reminders and it’d show on my calendar as a checklist, or I can directly add a dated to-do on calendars and it’d sync over to reminders app!
