I have Sisterlocks ( 7 1/2 years). I started with 3 inches of hair. It cost 500.00. I went to a consultant for the first 6 months. It would take 4 1/2 hours to retighten, and it would cost me 100.00. I went every 5 weeks. After that, I learned how to retighten it myself. I use a yarn needle. I’ve been doing it myself for 7 years.
I would say to add that for braidlocs, that while it can look like traditional locks it can also look like sisterlocks if started small enough. Also if you start two strand twists small enough they can also look like sisterlocks.
I interlock my own sisterlocs. Don't be discouraged... you don't have to get a "professional". I also did my mom's. Again not a professional... I'm just really good at what I do.
i love watching videos about locs😍😍😍 i think i’m manicured locs-ish, i retwist/wash every 1-2 months and have never let anyone else do my hair😩😩 i started them and been maintaining for 4 1/2 years now and i love the laziness of it all😍😍😍
I have Sisterlocks. You are charged based upon how much hair you have in inches and how dense it is. My installation was 1200 I had 9 inches. My retwist were 80 now they are 100 and I get them every 7 weeks. I’m about to start self maintaining them in 2019.
I’ve been interlocking for years but the palm roll is better if you want the smooth texture locs and no bumps going down the loc from braiding the root from interlocking. I can’t stand it 😢
When I think of getting locks. I think of something like your length and size. I really like your color and length. Girl this is gonna be a journey for me. I'm really tryna keep the faith, and I have not even started yet.
I have starter locs and i love the semi freeform look. I use oil and water to moisturize them and edge control every now and then when I’m looking for a more polished look. I’m almost 3 months in but I’m loving this journey already.
