Happy New Year!
​I'm walking  into 2019 with an abundance of optimism and gratitude! The 2018 Freedom Tour was an amazing experience. Running around the world, rubbing elbows with my Sisterlocks family rejuvenated me. I observed a lot during the Freedom Tour. It confirmed that we all love fun and fellowship but I also noticed that the Consultants and Trainees are hungry for more from Sisterlocks. 

So, I have decided....(drum roll, please)...

I have been motivated to continue on this path of bringing more advanced educational opportunities to  benefit the Sisterlocks family.  In order to provide our professionals with the best trainings and opportunities possible, we will  feature Sisterlocks Academy Weekends  at nine locations this year.  The  focus will be on advanced education and training opportunities.  The Brand Ambassador and R-Certification classes as well as the Advanced Refresher and select Specialty classes will be offered at various locations.

I'm excited and I look forward to seeing you! Remember to check the qualifications for the classes that peak your interest and register early so we can prepare for your attendance. These classes are designed to propel your Sisterlocks knowledge and career to its highest heights.  I know 2019 is going to be a great year for all of us! #slacademy2019 #bythebook

We received an overwhelmingly positive response to the Freedom Tour. There were also a plethora of requests for us to add more stops. You spoke and we've added another stop...Houston, Texas! This two day stop, November 10-11, 2018, will be our last Freedom Tour stop of the year. Don't miss this opportunity to meet up with us in Houston where we will learn, grow and empower! #dontmissit #freedom #25yearsoffreedom

One of my favorite experiences of the Sisterlocks Freedom Tour was the bonding I had with my Sisterlocks family…all of them: Consultants and Trainees, Trainers, wearers and the like. It warmed my spirit to be in the company of so many men and women who came out to support these events.

​The overwhelming response and enrollment in our classes and workshops was proof that our professionals are committed to on-going education and training. That has been a consistent goal of mine: to provide our professionals the absolute best training, education and support the industry has to offer. Our best professionals take advantage of those opportunities. 

Our Training Team is amazing! Every class, workshop, demonstration was executed by someone who is truly committed to Sisterlocks. If you knew the number of near emergencies and “oh shit” moments we’ve had, you’d be as amazed as we are that everything went on without more glitches.

It wasn’t all work and no play! We danced, had contests, fabulous guest speakers.  Each stop offered something different and equally memorable and I’m thankful to each Team in each city who made it possible.

A huge shout out to Brad and Kia Lewis, event planners extraordinaire! They truly made my life easier.

In case you didn’t know, we revealed a “special” announcement or item at each Freedom Tour stop. In Oakland, we held the first Brand Ambassador Certification Class. This class was developed to take our Certified Consultants who wanted to add another level of service and commitment to Sisterlocks, their clients and their businesses. 

In Baltimore we made the official public debut of the Sisterlocks “Pandora Style” Charm Bracelet. These .925 sterling silver bracelets come “fully dressed” and feature a lock clasp bracelet, a double-sided Sisterlocks Flying Lady disc charm, stopper beads and a safety chain. Stay tuned for your opportunity to score one for yourself…or maybe a gift for someone!

At the Atlanta Freedom Tour stop we debuted the Sisterlocks Style Book! I can not tell you how overwhelmingly beautiful each page is!

In Detroit, my hometown, we rolled out the details of the Sisterlocks Society/Sorority/Coalition (name to be decided). Of its many tenants are charitable works, collective works and community development.

​The Freedom Tour, as it turns out, was timely and necessary. I love you for being there! Dr. C

We’re fresh off the Atlanta Freedom Tour stop and I’m still running on adrenaline! Each stop on the Sisterlocks Freedom Tour has been a uniquely rewarding experience. I wanted to share a few photos from Atlanta, in this brief post.

Our next, and final stop, is Detroit, Michigan. This is my hometown and I am asking all of my Sisterlocks family to turn up in a big way. I really want to see you there. I have a huge announcement to share!

There’s still time to reserve your cabin on the 25th Anniversary Cruise in December. We’re sailing to the Bahamas, Haiti and Cuba. Contact Charlotte for more information: luv2cruisetravel@gmail.com or 678-768-1799.

Signing off, for now. Dr. C!

When planning the Sisterlocks  25th Anniversary Freedom Tour, I had no clue as to what the outcome would be. We are in the midst of the Freedom Tour and I never realized how life changing this experience would be for so many! The rewards, so far, have surpassed my expectations. I mean, you guys are showing up and showing out!
​
Every Freedom Tour stop has a team working on the ground and all I have to do, basically, is show up! What a relief it is!!! Brad and Kia Lewis are at the helm and tending to every detail. I love what they’re doing. The local teams are arranging fabulously talented featured professionals and personalities, to educate and entertain,  and they do not disappoint.
 
Our Brand Ambassador certification class was birthed just in time to launch on the tour.  Our Brand Ambassadors have come to class ready to fulfill the requirements but they’ve also provided very innovative ideas that show their commitment to developing their roles as Brand Ambassadors to show that they mean business. I’m very honored to see this because it will help to accomplish the future goals of Sisterlocks.
​
The Lock Trichology Analyst certification class has produced professionals who will be an integral part of further development of the Sisterlocks lifestyle. We have discovered that addressing the hair loss link and providing remedies will involve a holistic approach. These TAs are ready and determined and I’m so thankful.
So, what I’m witnessing on the Freedom Tour are likeminded professionals coming together to learn, laugh and love on each other and I’m here for it!

Our next stops are Atlanta, GA in June and Detroit, MI – my home town in July.  Join us, I'd love to see you! Dr. C

Dr. JoAnne Cornwell, the creator of Sisterlocks, will be on the scene throughout the weekend. Dr.C will host a forum Saturday morning for our workshop attendees, so bring your questions and your best ideas. That afternoon she will moderate our hair loss discussion. She will also co-train the Brand Ambassador Certification Course on Friday, and the Trichology Analyst Certification Course on Sunday/Monday.

There's so much more! For full details visit the Baltimore Information page! See you there!

​ April 21st is "Celebration Saturday" in Baltimore and we want to celebrate with you!  The Oakland stop was a-m-a-z-i-n-g! Baltimore will not disappoint!
