Happy to help

lol. I try

I hope it works for you!

Yes! That’s a good one!

I have that habit so bad. I try to keep my hands out of my head but I can’t

@@latashaharris9583 as I’m over here with my hand currently twirling a loc lol! Girl I have it bad too! 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️😩😩

Yupp. I learned that quick when I got my nails done for the first time after getting my locs. Smh. And rings! They’ll do that too!

Hi I'm 3 months in and need to go get my first reti but scared to go sit up in the salon. Have you had your first reti yet?

@@TheQueendiva08 hi!!! I had my first retie at 2 weeks. More like a check up. Since then I go every 5 weeks.

Glad to help!

I’m happy I could help! & welcome to the club! 🥰

Thank you 😊

Glad it was helpful!

Welcome!! Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰

Congrats on starting another loc journey! I hope you love this one too!

Thank you! I'm happy to help :). I hope you have a beautiful hair journey. Takes lots of pictures!

Great tips I just got mine , not even a week old My consultant doesn’t believe in moisturizing at all I feel like my hair will fall out with absolutely nothing The other sisterlock newbies have all sprayed with rose water soooooo I don’t know 🤷🏽‍♀️

I never used rose water. I only use regular water. And I don’t put a thing in my hair. Lol. But everyone’s hair is different.

No washing after a workout ?? I workout 4-5 times a week, I need to clean my scalp afterwards. Otherwise it will smell and i don’t feel comfortable

❤️❤️

I'm so glad! Happy to be useful!

You’re welcome ☺️

congrats! happy four months!

@Stephanie Stancil, congratulations! Welcome to the community!

Congrats! Welcome to the club ! 🤗. I hope you have a beautiful Sisterlock journey!

Got mine done today 19/06/2023. So excited

🥰. Thanks for watching!

Yes! Go for it! 💖

How’s the journey going?

@@TheRealKylaB The journey is surely going well. I have thin hair so it is not locked as yet but I am seeing lots of progress and I am looking forward for more growth in the future.

Thank you!

Happy New Year to you too! 🤗

Thanks Jean

Thank you! You too!

The scalpy stage will be over before you know it!

thanks Kdee! & thank you for sharing. What vitamins are you taking for your hair if you don't mind me asking?

I take D3, vitamin c Hair nails and skin vitamins, Natele, cod liver oil, b12, multi vitamins petite, folic acid and magnesium.. my growth has been amazing 🤩

Pls can one use pure aloe Vera gel on the locks

Yes! Thank you!

I did my first shampoo yesterday and that worked so well. I sprayed a little leave in after I took the braids and bands out. I have microlocs, but some are small- sisterlock size.

Good tip. I have done my 1st wash yet so I'll be sitting under the dryer..

My sisterlocks are braided down most of the time, just installed a few days ago. My ends are loose though, and I'm afraid they'll tangle together instead of individually, if I leave them alone. Should i oil them, wet them, finger comb them, use leave in conditioner??? 😬

@permafrost0979 you just got them a few days ago. So since they are brand new, I suggest leaving them alone. Do not oil them, finger comb them, and definitely don’t condition them. They won’t loc before your next appointment. Also, contact the person who installed them for advice when you need it!

If you're worried about commitment then wait till you're ready. I waited 4 years after my 1st consultation before I finally took the leap. DO it when you're ready :)

@@TheRealKylaB Thanks for the advice, I thought I was the only one. I will wait for sure

For me the commitment was easy, it was dishing out all that coin on my hair that I struggled with. 😮😱😢😂😊🎉

Excellent advice about the gloves!

I know how you feel, I’m 62 and I just had my micro locs installed last week.

@@MsRemoteViewer that’s awesome!!!!!

That's okay. You're doing it now and that's all that matters. Focus on the now and enjoy your loc journey! 🥰

Getting installed was my 61st birthday gift to myself! The scary part for me was not being able to dye my hair. So, I’m embracing the gray that is my new growth!🎉

Happy to share.

The beauty supply store, target, Walmart, Amazon. Any other places like them . 😊

Lol. The smell I’m referring to is from food, sweat, outside, smoke, etc. not from wet hair. I’ve never had a wet mop smell in my hair. I don’t spray my hair with water often. Not even once a week.

Honestly, as often as you need to.. Gotta do what's best for you!

yupp. This should've been number 1.

Yes! Moisturization is so important! Great tips!

Sooo just saw your Q & A video... ☺️

My pattern is a 3! I misspoke in that video. Lol.

And thank you! Are you excited?!

@@TheRealKylaB I am! I’ve waited on this for years but I’m ready now! I absolutely love your content please continue to make videos, I haven’t found another channel that represents fine high density Sisterlocks! Thank you for creating this space!

🥰🥰🥰

Thank you 😊 & nope. I’m 10 and a half months in, and I’m still not using any products. Just water. I was a minimal product type of girl before locs anyway. With sisterlocks I’m not supposed to put products in my hair until it’s mature enough for them.

@@TheRealKylaB thank you for the info and education... your locs are fab!!!

🙌🏾

3 liters a day of pure water for me! Hot tea or coffee, fruit, veggies and protein shakes not included eventhough they count too. #hydration

Yes four 16 oz bottles of warm water which is equal to 8 cups is all I drink a day it is enough to keep the kidneys & other body functions in working order hair growth is a bonus

Teasha Stewart actually coffee or tea isn’t good because of the caffeine but I am not going to stop enjoying things I like just because I need to drink water so I drink coffee every once in awhile but I don’t eat fast food I cook all my meals at home so I can know what is in the food

@@fatimamanneh9432 why warm water if you don’t mind me asking?

Go to the sisterlocks website. They have trainees and consultants listed on it. www.sisterlocks.com/finding-a-consultant.html

My hair was washed every 5-6 weeks. It was washed by my consultant every reti. I didn’t wash it myself until around 6 months.

@@TheRealKylaB Good to know, thank you! I get my Sisterlocks done in two weeks and I’m so excited! I love watching your videos, your hair has been growing beautifully!

Congrats! & thank you 😊

II hope you have a beautiful loc journey!

Hi, great content. Could you please tell me how to get rid of frizz? I’m 2 months loc’d but I’ve been spraying it every day and it’s so frizzy now.

Technically they can be combed out like any of type of locs but it would be A LOT, A LOT, A LOT, of tedious work to do so. & yes. It can also be done on thick hair.

I don’t know why she told you that. You should ask her. See what her reason is.

OMG! I thought this was a normal thing that everyone with sisterlocks had to do at the beginning stage.

Bonnets are good too. I use them when I don;t want to tie my hair as well. How's it going so far?!!

Lol. Yes! I went to Vanity Hair Studio in Brooklyn. My consultant was Stacy.

Just got my install 1/2021

No. It's not a dumb question at all. Sisterlocks are started with your natural hair only. Extensions are not associated with Sisterlocks, generally spesking. If you want to start off with extensions, then there are microlocks, or small traditional locks. You could always cut the extensions off over time if you are interested in doing that. Hope this helps.

C Cuffey, I just started my sisterlocks Jan 21 and I have 5 inches of hair, initially last year when I debated on Locs my hair was 4 inches, you can still get locs at your stage, trust me you’ll love it. The little curls are the cutest when our hair is this short, I love this stage. I call mine my “new curly babies “. Come on over to the loc community and trust the process and enjoy every stage!

Mines were about that long starting out and it came out fine. 9 months + in now and flourishing

There is someone in VA that does sisterlocks with human hair extensions

Can't *

That’s a good question. I’m not sure. 🥺

😪

I’ve had micro twists non locked hair for a couple months. My hair is short. 6.5 inches stretched about 2.5 visible with my shrinkage. I do small braids (basically five sections along the front of my face the way I want my hair to lay with a bang to one side, so three on one side and two on the other and similar sizes through my whole head. I start by pulling the hair (3-7 mini twists per split section I’ll be holding while forming a plait so about 15-21 twists per plait) this I will pull away from my scalp (starting the plait low far-ish away from the roots/ scalp) then I plait all the way down to my curly ends or twist the end if I run out of hair. Then I tug the plait straightish roll the end up along the plait like a tootsie roll and keep rolling the plait up to the root area. Then I tuck the spiral between the twist bases into the mound made by all the space I left when I started the plait really low down. So basically I look like I have mini hills on my head when I’m done. It’s almost like hidden Bantu knots that protect my ends. Now this may be too much manipulation for real locs. But when I take it down my hair is fantastically full and ridiculously curly and cute. I wear a satin bonnet over (for prob only an hour as it comes off in bed). But even with my regular pillow case drying it out at night I have been able to use nothing but some almond oil to moisturize my hands first when taking it down. I poke the plait In the middle nearish the end with a mini wooden knitting needle to undo so I don’t mess up the twists trying to undo.

Note that I’m not actually trying to Loc my hair yet though. I’m checking if I can live with the style. So I will occasionally pick a section and redo my twists. With some water and a little conditioner in a spray bottle. So the over manipulation of plaiting your real locs nightly or every two nights as I do may be too much.

this is a good tip. That's good to know for when I cut mine. Thanks for sharing!

happy to share!

🙌🏾🙅🏾‍♀️ facts

I get it washed at every reti. So every 5 weeks or so.

@@TheRealKylaB before you retie or after you retie My hair is also thin and when I wash it get messy and matted
