*The heat is on! We're experiencing moderate temps here in San Diego but in certain parts of Southern California, we're seeing triple digits. I'm sure you'll agree that we have the perfect hair for any climate.  We can literally let our hair down, especially since the heat and humidity will sometimes shorten the length of time our curl and crinkle sets last. Freestyle is always an option in any weather, less fuss and always ready to go.

Take me to the water!  Even if you don't like to swim, you're bound to jump in the pool,* at some point during the summer. Don't forget to shampoo and condition afterwards to counteract the drying affects of chlorine. If you're taking the plunge on a regular basis, a swim cap is advisable.  Chlorine strips the natural oils from the hair.  A sudsing with the Sisterlocks Starter shampoo, followed by the Reconstructor will help to bring the luster back to your locks. Of course, the Herbal Spray Moisturizer will give you an extra little "ump!" Caps, hats or a head wrap will offer additional protection from the sun, if you're out soaking up rays for an extended time.

*If you have newly established locks or locks that are not mature, have your Consultant advise you before exposing your locks to full immersion with water or extreme moisture.

The legislation comes 20 years after Sisterlocks, a San Diego-based natural hair care management company, successfully argued a case involving hair care discrimination. The company argued its practitioners shouldn’t be required to undergo 1,600 hours of training to obtain a state license because natural hair care wasn’t taught in cosmetology schools and is, in large part, a cultural practice.

"This legislation could potentially set a precedent nationally as our case did," said Dr. JoAnne Cornwell, the founder of Sisterlocks.
