I whole heartedly agree that the sisterlocks page should have a comment section so that comments can be posted about the experience that people have with their consultant. The whole site needs some updating and this is coming from someone who was possibly considering sisterlocks for their child. I love your commentary so please keep up the great work.
I have DIY Micro locs and my decision was hard decision and it boiled down to cost and I knew I could do it and it look the way I wanted them to. I love my final results. Sometime I am thinking of combining my locs. I may want them larger. Its all a personal choice for everyone as far as what they want and how they want their locs to look. Great video as always
I really, really wanted sisterlocks, I eventually went with microlocs. I got them done by a sisterlocks consultant. I went with microlocs becuse: One, the cost. Two, I have returned back to school and don't always have the time to be on someone else's schedule. Lastly, my hair is thick and I know I would've had a lot of locks that I myself don't think I could maintain. I'm happy with them and I have 267, which I did my own reti this past weekend.
I think that would be the perfect number for me. If for some reason, something happened to me health wise and I had to start over, I would get locs in the mid to upper 200s
I agree with you..I don’t see myself ever combining my sister locks. I love them so much and when I was going through the decision process of getting them...I made the commitment to have them forever 🤎 sometimes people ask me “when will you take them out?” and that question is very strange for me because I never plan on removing “my hair” 👌🏾 I really enjoyed the video and BTW: I had me a small glass of wine with you 🍷
Hey Nia 👋 I've been loving all of your videos! Last month I installed my own braidlocs. I went with the diy option because I felt like a sister loc consultant wouldn't install them as small as I would like. I'm sure I will combine my locs in the future though. I originally had 546 locs but I've since gone back and separated some so the count is way into the 600's. I figure it would be better to start off small and combine them later as opposed to starting off with larger locs and being stuck with not liking the size 😕. Thus far, I'm happy with my decision.
💚💚💚 I recently enlisted my husband to help me count my locs. I have 432 as well!!! I know I'm only 3 months in and it's a process that I'm trusting.... but I am eagerly awaiting them to fill in some 🙃
Can you share the loose to locs link? Some of my loose natural styles were the one thing I was concerned I’d miss when I got my SLs to this is something that I’m interest in. Thanks!
Yes 😊 ! I was trying to, but RUclips has been down across the world. I’m having a hard time accessing her videos right now, but I will add that link as soon as I can.
The hush hush is frustrating to me. I understand wanting to protect your product, but it makes it hard to be a well informed consumer. Also the certification is not a guarantee from Sisterlocks.
I dont like how combined locks look either. If it started 2 look like it would pop at the root, I would loose out the whole locks and braid it over the neighbor one. Idc about a grid but I do wish I did it better when I started out
But growing hair takes effort. There is nothing wrong with taking pride in that especially with the history of black women & hair. So big ups to women who have grown out their locks. It takes effort & it's an emotional journey. I don't think women who take pride in growing their locks are snobs.
I'm like that too. We are superior over loc lock extensions. Cause they didn't grow them. But I do have braidlocks because I started off with 13 inches of hair. And I wasnt about to pay over 1k to get my damn hair done, #2 they're too many. I started off with 254. And I did EVERYTHING myself. I braided them and interlock them 2

Microlocs are so pretty

Yessss !!! Clink Clink Clink lol =) People ask me when I will take mine out too, and I really don't like it . I wonder why they ask that.

600 locs! Whew girl! Kudos to you! I love the DIY loc community, yay inspire me to be more brave with my locs.
Sometimes I wondered if I made the right choice getting sisterlocs instead of micro locs...
Me too. If I could do it all over again I would have about 270 microlocs.
I’m glad I’m not the only one feeling this way
I have traditional locs, I did my own locs, there's video on my channel, I wouldn't have time or energy, cost for sister locs, but they do look fab.
I love your disclaimers! Thanks for keeping it 💯. ♥️
Thank you so much =) !
Okay now we can all officially stop bugging you about potentially combining. 😂 Thank you for humoring us and sharing your thoughts on this topic!
LOL I enjoy the questions, who know I may change my mind lol =)
Your locks are beautiful. If I combine it's only because something was thinning out and they needed to be combined.
Thank you so much! Your locs are beautiful too =)
Watching now! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Hope you enjoyed it!
I agree if I had the talent to do microlocs I definitely would have but them parts would have looked crazy lol so had to go with sisterlocks
LOL girl I would be walking around looking like snuffleupagus, if I did mine myself lol.
It is a standard. The sisterlock certification class is like 1500$
First!! Yay lol now let me watch
Ahhh man you beat me to it! I clicked but still waiting for video to download, 😢😊🇬🇧

LOL that's what husbands are for lol! I love that he helped you with that. They will thicken up before you know it.
❤️
You love me =)
If they're not certified on the website, using the tool & If they are promoting that they do sisterlocks, THEY CAN GET SUED.
