I really think this is an American thing that we are so obsessed with grid and size. Im not sure African or Caribbean people with locs are so concerned. I just wanted to loc my hair to be free and so I could swim with no hassles and spend less time doing my hair. Your hair looks beautiful! Be free!!
I think if you pay for the sisterlocks brand, you are gonna after a certain look which is “manicured”
Me too I am 2 years locd as of this week
I can tell you we don't care about grid in the caribbean
I don’t see anything “wrong” with the sizing. It’s more of your personal preference. If you really want sister locs then you have to start over, but if you can learn to love the micro locs and just let them thrive, I think they will be beautiful. I’m a micro loc girlie, self installed. I love them. I didnt love them at first (thought I looked crazy) but the journey was humbling. I learned to love the raw & uncut me & that lesson was priceless. Trust the process
Same .. The exact same for me .. I learned to love me now . And now im in love with my hair and being natural ..
If Your hair is HEALTHY...SIS THATS ALL THAT MATTER....GRID SIZE WILL DRIVE ANYBODY NUTS...STOP BEATING YOURSELF UP...YOURE GOOD ...YOUR HAIR IS BEAUTIFUL AND SO ARE YOU...CHILL
Your hair is still beautiful....don't give up
Hi there, so sorry for your bad experience. It sounds like you are truly hurting. Without a doubt this lady needs to be reported. I’m happy you found a new sister lock loctician. She sounds like a she is a professional who wants to guide you. Wishing you the best on your hair journey.
I'm sooo sorry this happened to you, but if it were me, I would take the time to take all of it down. That way you can reestablish your grid. It will take a lot of time, but starting over will be worth your happiness in the long run. I definitely wouldn't do a big chop. Just wear headband wigs or something until the process is done. At least your educated on sisterlocs and faulty locticians now. You'll get through this...Just be patient....Blessing to you Sis!!
I genuinely feel your pain. Our hair is to precious, it’s like an extension of us. Our hair holds so much emotion, like our history. That being said, your locs are still gorgeous!
You can do all things through Christ! Pray and pace yourself. Comb them out and then go back to the new person. Go-ahead if you can afford it and pay her what she is requesting. The sisterlocs look really nice on you. You got this! All is well with you.🙏🏼❤️
Yes I combed mine out with a dental tool,water and conditioner from the drug store. Took a month but I didn’t want to cut my hair. Best wishes to you and your journey 👍🏾✌🏾
Never feel stuck! You can do whatever you wanna do with your hair. This just goes to show it’s best to learn how to do your own hair! There are AMAZING stylists out there! But for every amazing stylist there’s 15 bad ones who don’t show any care or calculation. It’s safer to take your hair into your own hands! But if you don’t, that’s okay too. I established my own locs on heat damaged hair 😂 but still I’m loving the journey and I did them EXACTLY how I wanted them. Like you said RUclips is a good teacher. I have micro-ish small locs but still it only takes me 1.5-2.5 hours to retwist my hair. Retightens can take up to 12 hours. I wouldn’t even want to sit in someone’s chair for that long let alone do it myself. Sisterlocs/microlocs take extreme dedication. I wish you could’ve had a nice loctician to begin with! Your journey isn’t over and you don’t have to settle. ❤
Your sis really did a great job on your initial installation; a shame your loctician ruined it. I live in the UK, in a city with only one trainee and I didn't want to have to travel almost 2 hours to and from an appointment to the nearest city where there are sisterlock consultants that come highly recommended. So I installed my microlocs with a grid that allows me put the front half in cornrows for work. It did take almost 5 weeks (6" of hair and in between a full-time job), and almost gave up but I persevered especially as I had previously fallen victim of a terrible hair stylist. I am now 3 months in, and very happy with my hair. It does take a while to re-tie, but I like that I am not at the mercy of anyone. I may look for a consultant sometime in the future but I am perfectly happy to do my hair for now. I hope you are able to resolve the issue and wish you the best on this journey.,
I’m so sorry this happened to you. Your hair is still beautiful! I can understand how you feel being done wrong and you have to get it corrected , but your locs are still beautiful!
I'm sorry that happened to you. Thanks for sharing your story. It's very important that you see a certified sister locs loctician when you decide to embark on this journey.
I honestly don’t think she ruined your Sister Locs. I have Sister Locs in a long run. I had to end up combining my locks and I wish they were a little bit thicker. Because the thinner they are as you get more years behind you your hair can thin out at the Root, and that’s something they don’t tell you with Sister Locs. Your hair is absolutely beautiful. I understand you probably didn’t want all of them to be combined like that and it is challenging when another loctician tells you that. I think the ones that are like two and three dragons you can use a tool to, combine them all the way down but as far as your grid, you still have a nice grid there. Your hair is beautifully healthy. It took me over two years before my hair fully locked. I had to combine a lot of them my fifth and six year. I wish I would’ve just combined them early on.I actually think it’s a good thing that they were combined honestly.
What size are your locs? @TwistedTalesofTrueCrime
I am so sorry this happened to you. I am dealing with a similar situation in that I recently had my locs assessed by a sisterlock ambassador in preparation to take the self retie class and I found out there are holes in almost all of my locs. I am devastated. I am scheduled for repairs at the end of this month.
Your hair is GORGEOUS and so are you 💚
I'm so sorry this happened to you. Your sister did a great job. Hopefully, your new SL can correct the issue. Keep going on your journey!
i love your locs. they look just fine to me -- still very small, but not too small. if you planned on having locs for a long time, then it might be better to leave them the way they are.
many women have issues down the road with the small size of SL. i wish i could have started with a slightly larger size, because after 12 years, my hairline has suffered because of the softer texture and the (lack of) density. even if your hairline is full, you'll still always be anxious about the 14", super skinny loc at your hairline. it's not worth it.
I totally agree with you. I have had my sister likes going on seven years this year and I wish I would’ve just combined them early on and that was the message I left for her. She may not believe it right now but to me I’m of the thought process that it is great that they have been combined the way they are. She actually has a beautiful grid and to be honest as the years pass. That grid is not all that important is the health of your hair that’s more important than your grid on your scalp. When I first got my Lokia I was hung up on the grid but now please I prefer healthy scalp and locks over anything that has to do with a grid. Don’t give me wrong. I still have a grid there but it’s not perfect anymore because I have combined some locks and I’m happy I did that. Locks around my edges. I will never let them grow very long because long hair around your edges will cause traction alopecia in anybody’s locks, so I maintain shorter locks around my crown area in the front. That’s a pro tip.
Your locs really are fine. Regarding the two-headed dragons, I've had them with traditional locs and they ALWAYS joined evenly. If you were to twist them together they will loc just like people who start they're locs with two-strand twists. I have sisterlocks currently. I love how my SLs look but a thicker loc is better, healthier in my opinion.
i agree. a little thicker is better in the long run
I feel your pain! That's been my biggest challenge with my micro locs. The women who does them treat you like crap, they don't expect you to have a voice about your hair and if you challenge them they will kick you to the curb. when I tell you that I almost cut mines off and said "f-it", then I found a person who lived 2 minutes from my house and she is great but she changes prices every month... I went 5 months without a re-tie and I was over it. fast forward 1 year later and my hair is doing great! don't give up, let your hair grow out and embrace the unique differences of your locs. You are beautiful and your hair is beautiful.
Hi! Just my opinion and I know you’ve got microlocs now and that wasn’t the goal but they are soooo beautiful oh my goodness. I’m a microloc girl and I’m in awe of your current parting!
Thank you ❤️
I’m so sorry this happened. Your hair still looks good, but I understand your frustration.
I pray everything goes well during your journey. But good luck hearing from sisterlocks corporation. I reported a sisterlock trainee who messed my locs & also cut ✂️ my loc. I didn't notice til I went to another sisterlock consultant. Sisterlock Corporation didn't respond to any of my emails. What I did notice she's no longer on the approval lists. So that's a good thing.
Thanks sis for the information ❤
So sorry this happened to you. I can truly empathize with you as my story is very similar. I started my microloc journey on my own while vacationing in a few countries in Africa. My first retie was done at a loc salon in Ghana. The service was awful; they did different types of rotations, they also didn't protect the grid and my head felt very sore because the retie was way too tight. Moreover, I decided to give a try my luck with a new loctician in Ethiopia for my second retie. This loctician was a smooth-talker and convinced me to combine some my microlocs because it would be healthier for my hair. After the service, I paid and tipped her well. However, I deeply regretted it because after closely inspecting my hair, I noticed that she had made several triple and double-headed dragons and had even cut and poorly reattached a few locs without telling me. It was so depressing. What i ended up doing was letting my hair grow out for a few months. I ended up cutting my microlocs completely out because if I just combed them out, my hair would be uneven in some parts due to the locs that were cut. So, I your locs were not only combined and not cut, you could just comb them out or cut them a length where you are comfortable in combing the rest out. Hope this helps ❤
Kera I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through. I appreciate you sharing I know it’s a painful thing to go through. I had a loctition who wasn’t a sisterlock loctition retie my hair and she did it so tight that my edges came out from the roots. This was 6 months ago and I’m still trying to salvage some of them that are hanging on by strings. I was devastated for months. But I found a good loctition and my hair is thriving. I believe that every one will make mistakes at some point in their journey. I know you’ll make a good decision for you and your hair.💕
Your locs are beautiful.
I can see your disappointment and regret. Girl... I understand your exhaustion but hear me out... coming them out and getting a new reinstall would take 2-3 weekends. Gaslighting yourself into thinking you're not disappointed with your hair takes what.. years? a lifetime? Save up for a new install. Comb out all the negativity, comb out that terrible loctician's deception, throw the damage in the garbage, leave it in the past, and just start a new!
So sorry to hear what you're going through.
Please do not cut your hair
It would be better to just let them grow out and start again
It's sad that soo many folks doing sisterlocks, even some that are certified don't know hair care and maintenance.
Unfortunately loctiction don't have to have any experience with hair to take the class, just pay and go.
If i was in your situation i would either slowly and gently take them down or let them grow out .
If you decide to redo them , make sure you look at their work. All of them have pictures of their work.
Never ever again let anyone combine yoyr locks unless they can show you it's thinning etc.
Finally my dear. It should take time to do to your retights, because if they finish in 2 to 3 hours you are not getting a complete rotation, its not possible.
Peace to you Queen..
That is absolutely terrible! Definitely report her. If she’s going to cut corners and not maintain the integrity of her clients locks she definitely does not need to be a SL trainee or consultant. Sister Locs require patience & people invest so much money and time into getting them established. I am so sorry this happened to you
It sucks that you’ve had this experience. I definitely would report her. That’s basically scamming people and creating trauma and damage. It’s one thing to cut your hair bc you want to but in this case if the grid and having actual sisterlocs is truly what you want- getting a second set is the option. The positive is you already have the right person and you’ll have time to save. Microlocs are beautiful too! Tough decision especially with negative emotions at the forefront but prayerfully the decision you come to will be the one that works for the long run! Good luck on your journey going forward!!
Since it’s a trademark, you should make a complaint to the company. Ask them to have someone fix your hair . I love them but can’t be dependent on a hairstylist.
I wish I could call you n tell you to go through the process frfr n might take time but in the end you will be so much more happier n to cut them n it’s nothing wrong with micro locks you got this ❤❤❤
I'm so sorry you experienced this. Similar thing happened to my sister. Only difference is - it was the Sisterlocks consultant who did her install that gave her microlocs for Sisterlocks money. She chose to keep them, and her subsequent consultant spent a couple of years splitting them to get them over 300; and my sister's hair is THICK 4c. I told her then to report the lady who did her install so that nobody else would suffer what she had. She refused. Personally, I think reporting is the kind thing to do if you want to be your sister's keeper. But then again, I understand wanting to focus on yourself and get your hair where you want it to be, rather than on other potential victims. Like so many others have said - your hair is still beautiful. You could combine the dragons by twisting to the end, or wait for them to matt a bit and chop off the extra arms on each loc. Either way, you are beautiful Sis.
Here watching 😊
Good luck with whatever you decide to do with your locs. Hopefully you take each one down, two strand twist with 4 four point rotation or get help to comb all out, find a Loctician you trust ,start new Sisterlocs. Your hair is still beautiful but I know you have to love it for yourself. 💞💞
Listen Sis, your flaxseed gel to take them down, it will make it much easier.
It took me a month to take down the locs and do two strand twist just as I was taking them down. I was going to work that's why it too that long. So you can do it! I can send you pictures.
I think you and you hair are beautiful! I have microlocs and love them.
I can understand your sentiments. Your under a year and the hair is not fully locked/matured. Plus with a soft texture, Comb them out sis, use conditioner and water. Once you get set you will be happy with, you wont regret it.
Your hair is beautiful dont give up love
Hi K. Nichelle ,let me just say I just found your page and I also don’t have any type of locks , but just seeing u and listening to u speak about your hair and everything u been through and not even a whole year yet with your hair .. Just thinking about what to do is getting to u ,but honestly u got this just take your time and on weekends take down what old girl azz did and before u know it you’ll be right back where u wanna be with your sister locks….
Thank you for sharing your story.
I feel this. I’m sorry you went through that. I can relate
Please do not give up! Take your time to repair your hair. Do a lot of research whenever you have time. Your hair is beautiful despite the mishaps.
Your hair looks beautiful!
Now my recommendation to;
1. Pray
2. Breathe/relax
3. Change your attitude about your hair 'EXPERIENCE'
4. Watch your behavior when it comes to your hair
5. Change your conversation about your hair...Talk to your hair expressing self neglect and future improvement
6. Express love to your hair from this moment forward
7. Take full responsibility for improving your hair with your hands
8. Change, change, change and I repeat change,
hence the reason the
'HOLY SPIRIT' had you to relocate 😅 for you to change.
9. Accept all hair charges with love
10. Move forward in love financially
(do your own hair )
mentally (no one is going to treat you better than you are willing to treat yourself),
physically (implement a new diet that promotes hair change), spiritually ( turn your hair over to the FATHER and watch miraculous hair restoration), and Soulfully (meditation is medication)

Success

Aww I’m sorry for that for you….Girl ..I think you should comb them out and do new install…I know it’s a lot but even if it take a few months to take out…. That’s short term compared to you loving your hair and your journey….those my thoughts..your beautiful
Prayerfully you will make the best decision for you. You’re still beautiful 😊
I am so sorry this has happened to you. Although your hair is not what you wanted, you and your hair are beautiful! I say take a moment to step away. Think about all your options. Process with your amazing mom and then go from there. There is no super rush at this time. Take a moment to breath and jump back in. Also maybe get a consult from a microloc technician. Way out all of your options then proceed. In the mean time remember you are beautiful and your hair is also. Oh and definitely report the woman who didn't do them correctly. You got this! Thank you for sharing your journey.
Locs aren’t for everyone and sometimes you have to experience that to figure it out. I dont have time or interest to examine every loc on my head. All my locs don’t look the same, didn’t form the same, don’t feel the same. Yet, my hair is beautiful and I’m constantly complimented and being asked questions about my locs. Until I was completely comfortable and confident, I worried about my locs not being perfect all around IN MY OPINION. Now I appreciate my gorgeous head of hair and am grateful for what I have.
I realize some persons pulling the hair far back that’s not truth not smh 🤦🏾♀️ pray girl I want your journey to be a happy one. The person that I am I won’t give up until it’s done right ❤
Yes report that trainee please. And I'm sorry she did that to you
Can you send me the information on who you’re going to now? I want sister locs and I live in Charlotte
I dont know you little sis and im ready to fight that trainee. The integrity of your hair still looks great. If you are ok with thicker locs then maybe get the 2headed dragons crocheted together to the ends there wont be any holes. You may have to spend some time doing some research. Im newly mico locd and i have loved everyday of it. So i pray you find a path that makes you love your hair again
This is so heartbreaking when it happens. 💔 😔
Your hair looks good. If you get let go of the original expectation and embrace what you have now, I think you'll be fine.
Locs are not meant to be perfect and yours will be great if you stay the course.
Girl just freeform your locs or just start over. Everybody’s locs don’t develop at the same pace that’s first. Second with locs you have to leave them alone and let them loc. third keep twisting and putting tension on them will ultimately destroy them.
I understand that the hair still looks good but I don't think anybody has a right to combine your locs without checking what you lime first. I had to comb out my locs because it was combined without my permission and this makes it gather lint. And yes! They combined them to save time. It's so unfair.
😮😢 sorry this happened to you 😢 I hate this It’s hard enough to trust people
I feel bad for you, that wasn’t a good reason to combine your locs. Please listen to your mom, don’t chop it off. During the take down just wear wigs cause the process takes a bit of time, even though it maybe long and tedious but in the long run, you will achieve your desired look. I am presently taking down my microlocs, it was done by my sister who is not a loctician and some of my hair is bigger than some, plus I had a couple other issues. I plan get a redo by a professional once I am done. The trainee should be made aware that what she did was messy, who wants to go around with hair as is plus with the problems you will face if you don’t sort them out. God forbid she mess up someone else’s hair. She definitely needs to redo her training… smh… you’re beautiful. God bless, all the best to you.
I know this video is a month old. Dont know what decision you decided to make. But here's my advice. I too had the same problem with the two headed dragon. I painstakingly untied all the two-headed dragon back to two individual whole mini/sis-loc. It can be done with patience. You can take a month and do them in sections; instead of taking them down completely. You have to be gentle, but its not as hard as you make think it is.
Wish I was there to help you get done...😢
Sweetheart I am so sorry for what you are going through. You’re young and your hair looks healthy. As tedious as it may be and time consuming- I’m suggesting you get your village together and have a “help my girl” hair take down party. Since you’ve found a seasoned and honest loctician near by - just start over fresh with her. I understand the expense of it and that would be twice for you but I want you to be happy with your hair. My heart breaks for you and honestly if I were a loctician and saw/heard your story - I’d install you free. Maybe going widespread on social media and even doing a gofundme might help you raise the money. Please tag me if you gofundme. And, yes please report her and mention her (not by name) and the area so folks can be put on notice of her unprofessional behavior.
I’m so sorry. 😢🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing ❤😮😢😊
If you take them down do you think you could plan a visit home and your sister re-establish you and the new lady keep up the reties? I know you said your sister doesn’t want to do it as a profession, but hopefully after what the lady did to you she might consider it just for you? This exact thing happened to me and I had to take it down and restart. Trust me I know it’s devastating!
I don’t think my sister would be willing to redo my hair. Still contemplating on cutting them out or combing them out.
I was thinking the same thing
I’m sorry this happened to you … so what your going to do keep or restart ? I would say I cut off 13 inches of relaxed hair grew out two inches chopped it all off and now I have sister locs and they are about 3 inches long been locd about 2-3 months now .. short is the way boo .. I do recommend you to do whatever makes you happy .. good luck beautiful..!
Bless your heart. I hate that for you.
That's so terrible 😢
This happened to me too, I suffered for two years and then I just ended up cutting all my hair off and starting over with something I was happy with. Good luck on your journey. I’m sorry that there are people in this world that behave this way. Just know that you have a support system and we’re here watching and cheering you on😊
Being unsatisfied with how your hair looks is not suffering. If you’re that obsessed with hair and vanity in the world we live in today that you call it suffering, you have much deeper issues to address.
@@TheMrsB 😂😂😂 thank you for sharing your opinion on my experience/comment. Have a blessed day!
i really dont think your locs are ruined. i feel u on what happened. if in time you wanted or had to combine then it would have been your choice. but this wasnt. i totally understand. But now that it is combined, i think you can rock out with it. bc many sl ppl end up combining locs down the road anyway. maybe you could do the perimeter over, first 2 rows bc seems like that perimeter bothers you. but i think she may have done something that would have been done to a certain extent (not all) in the future. Your hair still looks great. i do want to fight her tho!
I’m late reviewing your post and not sure what you decided to do. You are a beautiful person and I’m sorry your journey has been interrupted with Chaos. However this is just to make the ended even more worthy go for what you desire luv and never let anything get in your way. Your mom is a great supporter and you’re lucky to have her in your corner. I truly hope this works out for you and you update on what decided to do. 🙏
I’m sorry that that happened to you and honestly if I was you, I would take the advice from the other optician to report her ass and make her pay you either all or part of your money back, God bless you, my sister
I would slowly take them down and fix them myself. I would save myself time and money by switching to micro locks because they don’t have to be so specific.
I think your hair looks good. I think we make too much fuss over grids. I would take my time and comb out the ones that are the “Worst” just take you time and do a little each day until it is done. You will save yourself some money and headache. You can’t leave it “as is” because you’re not happy with it. I would not take them all out or cut them off. Absolutely Not!!!!
Subscribed because I'm now invested in your journey ❤
I am there with you so disappointed with my locs after starting over twice. I have another appointment with another loctician praying that she can help me. I think you look beautiful, but do understand your pain as I am going through a similar issue. We will get what we want and our hair will be beautiful in Jesus name.
Praying for you ❤
This is a horrible horrible story. The impatience of some ppl. Why do you like that!!!! I have microlocs and I feel so sorry for you. I would say take them down. I took mine down to redo them and I work from home and it took 2 weeks. So whether you work from home or not it's gonna be a tedious process. But just think about the final outcome. You will finally get what you've always wanted and you're going to live them. I hope you continue in your journey.❤
Can you ask your sister to help you this one time ?
Its the wild wild west out there for small locs and if you arent an educated consumer doing your own research there are people willing to take advantage. Sucks that this happened to you. I would take this as a sign to DIY. I wouldnt trust anyone else at this point. Your locs will be beautiful you just have to accept this is how they are now.
Also big picture your locs are uniquely yours this quest for "perfect locs" is a recipe for disappointment and sadness. Im seeing this quest for perfection in both the traditional loc and Sisterlocs/microlocs community and its unhealthy. Locs are supposed to help free you from mental slavery to white ideals of beauty. Why are folks in the loc community shackling themselves to some mythical idea of perfection that doesnt exist?
They look fine
looking forward to seeing the outcome thanks for sharing
Please! Please! Report her to Sisterlocks. Looking at your hair, it doesn't look bad but the technique is messed up and she didn't follow the Sisterlock standards.
I did shortly after making this video. They have not contacted me back.
Stay Encouraged ❤❤❤
Undo and start again
Thank you for your vulnerability. You are beautiful. Please don’t make a decision in the moment have some grace for yourself. ❤
I hate that this happened too you. Hopefully you find an option that works for you.
I’m in Charlotte. I have some people for you
I'm sorry. 😢
I honestly love your locks and I know you wanted to traditional sister lock method and grid. I believe that’s what you said but I feel like they look good at the size they are yeah you wanted them smaller but I’ll say just twist the Dragon heads down and just embrace, the new thickness you have you know ? and honestly, I’ll say be a DIY girly right now lol and save some munyun and fix yo parts in a front then I feel like you’ll be sad and you’ll like your locks more than you do now. but they are very beautiful by the way!!
Oh damnit sis, um so sorry that this has happened to you. I would sue her for the monies and time you invested in your hair and her dumbass destroying it....🤬
Its sad that you put your trust in someone who is supposed to be knowledgeable about the service provided to you only for them to do the opposite. Whatever you decide I hope you're able to enjoy the journey.
Wow I hate that this has happened to you. Please report her
SHE SOUNDS LIKE A GOODY TWO SHOES& TRY'NA MAKE TROUBLE FOR LOCTICIANS WHO'S NOT AS EXPERIENCED AS HER BY HER STANDARDS. ANYWAYS, WHAT CAN YOU ACTUALLY GAIN BY REPORTING HER? IF YOU DO THAT THEN GO HEAD& TAKE IT TO THE MAX& SUE HER IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT AS WELL.
Why get something that you can’t manage yourself? Just like weaves and wigs people love to get them but don’t know how to manage those types of styles themselves. It’s just a trend that everyone wants to participate in . With no real value of why they want to participate in the first place. 🤷🏾♀️
There is always one lol. The same way men get haircuts they don’t know how to manage or keep up without going to the barber 🤷🏾♀️. If everyone managed their own hair salons would not be in business. Some people don’t want to manage their own hair or can’t.
So sorry this happened to you
I see a lot of opinions here but I agree with you that she definitely destroyed your hair. Everybody’s standard of quality is different but Im with you girl. Them did not look good! Im 6 months into my journey and I hate you had to go through this! I see you have taken them down but I hope you can start anew and have a better experience.
