Checkin in: how's the loc journey been?

[@MiNNi0La]

Very informative video. I have 22 inches of 4b/4c hair with fine strands but of high density and when I went for my consultations (I booked 3), only one loctician, in my opinion, was knowledgeable and/or honest enough to let me know my strands are too thin and would absolutely advise against me getting sisterlocs. She then proceeded to do test microlocs and they were gorgeous and strong, even to the point that the second loctician I went to complimented the ones the first loctician did. Needless to say, I trusted the first loctician to do my install! Make sure you do your research ladies!

[@microlocsandmore]

Yes! Do your research and ask questions!

[@ShelbySteele23]

[@MiNNi0La]

@@ShelbySteele23 unfortunately I haven't gotten anything done as yet. I'm a front line worker, and have been in ppe from head to toe, it's not wise to start them yet, as I am not sure how they will mature being covered 8-14hrs of the day! Soon and very soon 😩

[@malvaparker6618]

Nice to hear you explained the definition of fine hair. Some people think fine and thin are the same. Fine is the texture like coarse hair is the opposite texture. It's the feel of the hair. Thick and thin are the density of hair. The number of hairs on your hair.

[@microlocsandmore]

Exactly! It is a misconception.

Thank you! Either way you should have a beautiful journey as long as you pick a good consultant (or start them with a good foundation yourself).

Thanks for watching! I'll be 2 years on 3/24! It took about 15 hours for me over 2 days.

[@qll8840]

I feel like the people saying sister-locks are expensive are not going to certified sister locks consultants, I heard one girl say she was quoted $2100 and her hair is 5 inches, FOH that’s insane sister locks has a set price that they follow. I believe it’s 600 for the first 4 or 6 inches and $100 for each additional inch and then your first follow up is FREE If the first follow up isn’t free and you are paying more than I wrote then your hair dresser is not certified

[@microlocsandmore]

$2100 is a lot. Maybe it depends on the location and demand? The price you are stating for sisterlocks sounds more accurate and was close to what I would have paid had I give that route.

I have microlocs. Two months locd. I started with two strand twist. Had to go to a braider to twist them cause i am awfall at sectioning. But i will manage my hair by interlocking

[@microlocsandmore]

How has your experience been with the two strand twist staying loc'd especially after washing?

[@ayanagreen5349]

That’s great. Leaning towards micro locks. I don’t like the idea of forcing a certain amount of locs to meet a requirement. That’s not great for everyone.

[@microlocsandmore]

Agreed. Locs should be based on your hair’s needs vs a quota. This is why you need someone honest to do your install.

[@lorismith5429]

Looking forward to my microlocs journey!! 2weeks down- years to go🥰🎉

[@microlocsandmore]

💕💕💕love it!

[@Holistichart868]

All of this is accurate! The loctician that I have met is going to charge close to $1000 for the install if you have 3 inches of hair and $100 per extra inch of hair for Sister Locs. I had micro Locs in the past and it cost me $300 for the install and that was about 10 years ago. I did have them unraveled over a period of 70 hours and four people. It was insane to say the least. Now that I am knocking on the door at 40 I am ready to take the jump again this time permanently. I personally enjoy changing my hair all the time too! I agree with all of the reasons you mentioned!

[@microlocsandmore]

Do you have a timeline to start the journey again?

[@stephaniecollier8656]

It doesn't matter how long your hair is it takes my consultant 2 hours to retighten my sisterlocks. My cousin also has sisterlocks she has 550 her's is at bra strap. It takes her sisterlock consultant 2.5 to 3.5 hours to retighten hers. You have to trust the process. Sisterlocks double/swell over time. I also have fine hair.

The mini interlocking journey is what I do. Love them. I am appreciating your knowledge of the 5 rules, which I can use when explaining to future clients and anyone who asks. It is very important to know what you are getting before you start. I do not call the locks sister locks, because that is not what I do. I am not a person certified to do sister locks. A person must understand -- cost and time are very important.

Thank you so much! You should look into it!

[@brittanyh2596]

Also with SL consultants, along with being limited, some don’t allow you to make a retightening appointment if you didn’t get your establishment done with them. Like, they don’t take transfer clients. So if your consultant is booked when you need them, it’s more difficult to find a backup.

[@microlocsandmore]

This is something important to consider. Thanks for sharing!

[@adnaloy9025]

Thank you for this! I appreciate you! I have my sisterloc consultation appointment tomorrow! I am leaning towards microlocs, because I don't think I want 600 locks on my big head. But I have a huge head and full of hair. I would like to be able to sometimes do my own retie, and I don't think that 600 is the answer! I think I would be better with about 300-350 locks. Plus, I didn't realize the price thing that you said... I thought they would cost about the same. I will definitely be questioning her about these things tomorrow.

Very helpful video. I have been debating between Sisterlocks and micro locs for some time now. Not to mention, the word “micro locs” is/ has been used interchangeably to describe sister lock-type locks not done by a certified sisterlocks consultant, versus this type of loc in the video. So things have been a bit confusing. But now that I have gained some clarity from this video, I feel like I know know which direction I’m headed in my future loc journey. Thanks!

[@microlocsandmore]

Glad you got your clarity! It can be confusing. Keep me posted on your journey!

[@angelalittle5554]

Thank you for this video. I am doing the research in my area. Plenty of locticians but not a lot of sis locticians. After looking at a you tube blogger about sis locs she highlighly discouraged if you don't have one within 2 hours and able to attend the strict scheduled maintenance. I paused in getting them. The price for sis locs can be really expensive based on length. Micro locs might be my new look. 😊

[@microlocsandmore]

One of my cousins who has Sisterlocks (and hers are gorgeous) mentioned this as a concern. She personally says she can’t tell the difference herself when microlocs are installed with a good grid using the interlocking method. As a result, she got her daughter microlocs. Keep me posted on your decision. There Is no right or wrong choice. Only what’s right for you. If you watch any other videos and have questions please ask away! Keep me posted on your journey.

Hi. I am 12 years now with what started out as Sisterloc's. I paid 950. I was very dissatisfied 😒 with how tiny they were. They looked like strings and I was very scalpy. I wore a wig the first 6 months! I eventually combined the locs throughout my entire head. It worked without putting too much pressure on my roots. Even though I did not like my initial install I ended up with a head full of beautiful locs. My goal was pencil sized locs. Neither micro nor SL's were my choice. My Loctician was not forthcoming with the truth about sizing. It all ended well. No regrets. I could have kept my 950 but at least I built upon that initial install.(950)

Lol! Stalking is necessary when figuring this loc life out!😜 Since you have fine hair you will be able to watch my videos to see some the experiences you may have. Ask any questions and I’ll be sure to answer. Good luck!

Informative! Thank you. I am more ready now. I cant wait to start. I am diefinitely leaning towards diy microlocs. Thank youuuu

Thank you for sharing… you helped me confirm my journey… wish me luck

Good luck! When do you plan to loc?

[@Caribbeanvibes25]

I love micro locs i had traditional locs twice that i comb out now i want to loc up again.❤ love your hair.

[@microlocsandmore]

Thank you so much! When do plan to start again?

[@Caribbeanvibes25]

@Microlocs and More you are I still deciding lol I need to get it together.

[@sheilalogan2435]

It would be nice to see close up of both locs to really have a comparison about them

[@microlocsandmore]

I plan on in the future having a live video with my cousin who has Sisterlocks. However, no matter which one you have they will always look different due to different variables like texture and density and method of installation. Either can go up or down in size. One’s Ioctician plays a huge role in the final outcome as well so I recommend looking at pictures of his or her work.

Thank you for the video. I don't have locs but I am leaning in the direction of micro locs once my hair grows out. I have been cutting my hair for a while now and I'm ready to let my hair grow back out to a nice length. I have been watching videos for the last few days to get get more info

[@microlocsandmore]

Thank you for watching! I hope my channel begins to answer more of your questions. Feel free to ask me any questions and I’ll help the best I can!!

[@shifondaflorence7546]

Thank you so much!! This lady told me $850 bc the length of my hair. Which is between 10 to 12 inches here in orl fl. Then I have people telling me that's to much for micro locs. Bc I only want bout 200. And I do have fine soft hair

[@microlocsandmore]

Have you been to more than one consultant to see if that is the price for your area or if that individual is overpricing compared to others? If your area is high, some people will travel for their installation and get the retightening done locally.

[@tanishyacole6027]

Thank you for you absolutely great, very informative, and sis so helpful video. I just started my journey. Next Friday will be 3 weeks. My stylist started my LOCS with comb twist. I have fine soft hair also as I got older(50yrs). I definitely want micro LOCS look for sure and you help solidify my desire. Thanks so much!

Yay! Enjoy the journey! There will be twists and turns and embrace them all. Keep me in the loop!
