    I love your energy and this is the best video on this topic and the most accurate. Interlocked microlocs end up being the same price as sisterlocks because they're the same thing. Then with the twists they unravel so the retightenings can easily turn into repairs which can end up costing more than sisterlocks retightening. The microlocks installed that way are cheaper up front but cost more to maintain. The braid pattern NEVER goes away. Also the technique can also make people get the fat ends on their locs too. With all that said I got sisterlocks because they were cheaper than microlocks to maintain although I paid more upfront.

      Hi beautiful! Thank you so much 🤎 those are a lot of good points too! I hadn’t considered how the price difference, when there even is one, could end up leveling out anyway.

    Your sisterslocks look so good! My microlocs are bigger than your sisterlocks but you are right most people cant tell the difference 💜

      Thank you so much! I love how they’re flourishing 🥰 and right! People just identify them as whatever term they’re familiar with

      @@kahinamatatayou’re welcome! Are you using 3 or 4 point rotation? They are so tight, full, and neat. Asking for myself 🙃

    • @kahinamatata
      @kahinamatata  6 месяцев назад

      Lolll yeah no need to correct 🤣 I’m sure that gets tiring! Everyone just says what term they know lol I’ve started saying “I love your locs!” so that I don’t mess it up too 😅

    • @simplesweetjoy16
      @simplesweetjoy16 5 месяцев назад

      But if they on the grid do you have them interlocked all the way or are they braised! Twisted, rolled or interlocked?

    I like that the shrinkage is lessened with sisterlocs

    • @kahinamatata
      @kahinamatata  6 месяцев назад

      Hi beautiful! That’s a good point too and definitely something I like lol. It’s the interlocking method that does that
