Girl you are right on about all of these points so many benefits it’s a wonder any u.s black woman is still doing weaves or relaxers

The pro about not going to the hair store is theee truth! Everything you said was the truth!!! I installed microlocs that often get mistaken for Sisterlocks, but your positive points made about locs really made me 😊Thank you!

Good I glad I mad you smile!! Yeah some people don't agree with me and thats cool I just had a not so great natural experience so this has been life changing for me personally!!
@ovrjoyd4u26 жыл бұрын
I agree with you sister about our sisterlocs. I have had mine since 2003, so that's 15 years. The onnly negative could be the initial cost investment. But it is equivalent of the cost of 2 weaves and then total freedom. Best decision i've ever made. Sometimes I long for loose natural hair. But the truth is, I just can't see being tied down to products, detangling, and all that jazz. Beautiful young sister. Sisterlocs may not be everyone's #1 choice, but they are working for me.

Same, the other say I was just telling my husband that I want to comb out like 10 so I can have a braid of my natural hair t play with.....then I said nah I'm going to end up having to style that piece way more frequent then I would want!!

I go to my consult June 27th .I can’t wait 😊. I don’t think they cost that much . this year along i have paid over $800 on braids , weaves, etc and the year isn’t over. Sisterlocks are going to save me so much money 💰. Sister locks are cheap to me. I’m tired of the rude comments for the hair stores. They think we depend on them. Sisterlocks also keep the black dollar circulating 🙌🏾

This was great to watch! I have been a fan of Sisterlocks for a couple of years now. In August I took the Sisterlocks Consultant course and I learned a lot about the process. The plan was to install my own Sisterlocks as well as do my own re-tightening but I've been stalling because I have somewhat thin hair. It's very healthy and has length but I don't want it to look scalpy. I've learned all of the methods for the type of pattern to use for different types of hair including the one for fine, thin hair so I hope I do it right. Loved your feedback on staying away from products! I think that's very important. You and your locks are beautiful! Thank you.
@EbonyMoniquesWorld7 жыл бұрын
From what I've seen, it looks like everyone is a bit scalpy at the beginning and then over time your hair thickens up!!! I am excited for you girl this is going to be the best hair move you have ever made!!! Thank you very much for watching my video and the compliment!!!
@sisteryaya247 жыл бұрын
Ebony, thanks so much for the encouragement. I really needed it! After spending all that money on the course I was beginning to wonder whether or not it was a loss. Thanks so much and blessings to you!
@sisteryaya247 жыл бұрын
You know Ebony, I think what made me hesitate was that there was a lady in the Sisterlocks class who had her Sisterlocks for a couple years and it was extremely scalpy. It could be because she was using products in her locs and she also kept it pulled tight, but I was like, what is going on!!! That is not what I want! But I'm inspired by your words!
@EbonyMoniquesWorld7 жыл бұрын
No problem, I'm glad my words gave you some encouragement!!! I am super excited to see what your hair looks like when you start!!!! Good luck!!
@EbonyMoniquesWorld7 жыл бұрын
Yep I definitely agree pulling your hair tight has never been a good thing and putting product in your hair when it is completely not needed!!! (in most cases) I will say every woman I have seen with SL's they all look great in some way or another I feel like they enhance you( maybe because how freeing they are) so don't worry I'm sure yours are going to be amazing!!!

Shannon Edison I have been retightening my hair since March it takes me like a 2-3 days, I don't mind it. Usually it's not like getting your hair done every 2 weeks it's more every 5-6 weeks. I can't remember exactly how long it took but it was around $80-$90 every 6 weeks! I hope this helps!

It might be for you, for me it was worth it!! It works out to like $30-40/hr so I was ok with personally. I think of it as an investment. Now I will say that I prefer to do my own hair so for me that would probably be the con you have to depend on someone else to maintenance your hair!
