Sisterlocs are only called that because of the certified stylist who established them and the tool they used. They don't own the grid. It's a brand. If your stylist is not "Sisterlocs Certified" then LEGALLY you can't call them that. You'd have to call them microlocs. However, they are the same thing. Thank you for this video because I was contemplating DIYing my own microlocs using QueenEleem's method but I started second guessing myself. This just reconfirmed that I can do it myself. Thank you!

[@LaZy3LocD]

This deserves a pin 📌 beautiful vivid explanation, I could not have said it any better. I honestly thought the grid pattern belonged to the sisterlocks trademark...thank you soooo much for the clarification. And yea QueenEleem did a FANATASTIC job on her DIY microlocs, I say take a deep breath and for it darling!! 🙋🏽‍♀️..Keep me posted on your decision🙂..and thanks for watching hun!💖

[@chaneljudah2465]

Girl yes! Locs are suppose to be natural, not perfect. I’ve been natural for 6 years and just installed my own “microlocs”. The whole sister loc thing is too complicated and too expensive. Nobody is going to be looking at your head to make sure your “GRID” is on point 😂 locs are locs!

[@LaZy3LocD]

Girl you and I see it the same way! locs are definetly locs. Trust me I done did so much to my locs that the stickler sisterlock consultants wouldn’t wanna have anything to do with my head lol...but aye congrats on you’re self retie hun!🙌🏽🙌🏽 I give it to you all who buckle down and do it on y’all own💖💁🏽‍♀️

[@lesleywilliams1717]

Thank you! I just did my locs and I joined a fb group. Posted my (what I thought were) sisterlocs and 5011 nasty bitter heffas came for my head saying 🗣YOU DONT HAVE SISTERLOCS!!

[@keeshamaitland-barreau3909]

ok girl. I'm like "what grid"? Who the heck's gonna be searching through my head like that? LOL

[@shanekiarichardson4210]

Thanks sis! Great vid. I started my locs with two strand twists and I'm glad I did. No grid and my parts are by no means straight- but I own it 😂 and I love the different sizes and fullness. I did get a professional retie and cleanup; but I can maintain myself if need be. Love the options and diversity in the loc game 💪

[@LaZy3LocD]

Ayeeee, see that’s what I’m talking about Shanekia! Owning your own microloc journey and doing it YOUR WAY. I absolutely love it...get it girl! 🤗🙌🏽💃🏽👸🏽

[@tataliciousdelicious9840]

So glad I seen this comment. I’m in the process of transitioning from traditional locs to mico locs. I have no grid whatsoever and parts are faarrrr from perfect. But I’m already loving how it’s looking and can’t wait to finish! ☺️

[@shikleohair]

I just started my mini locs. That’s what I call mines. Finished my own mini locs. I’m also licensed and it was so much better doing it myself then getting someone else. It took me 3 days and I started mines with braids. I’m so in love with them. I did my daughters mini locs 3 months ago and now I see what she means when she says “mommy I love my hair.” 🥰❤️😍 your so beautiful too btw. New sub☺️

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Sheeba!👋🏽...thanks so much hun💕and welcome to the channel!🙌🏽super congrats to you starting and finishing your own locs🙌🏽🥳💪🏽. Gosh I give it to you guys so for doing it yourselves lol, and the fact you passed on and instilled the love that your daughter has when she looks at her hair is absolutely admirable! I hope your enjoying your loc journey hun💕...1️⃣🖤🥱⛓⛓⛓

[@dsw33t3st3v3r]

When you said “self sufficiency” 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 yess Queen!! I started my microlocs 3 years ago, and my reasoning for doing them myself is I wanted to still be able to do my own hair. I was natural for 3 years, I didn’t do all that work to learn my hair just for someone else to be in my hair. I love the content!!

[@LaZy3LocD]

Yes!! Girl I hear you...being natural as beautiful as our hair is can be tasking lol. And I always gotta give it up to the beautiful ladies who establishes y’all own microlocs! Shoutout to you love, for taking your hair into your own hands...literally lol😩😂😂, and I’m glad you love the content Diahann!💖💖

[@Babybookieboo]

Yeah that’s what keeps me away from sister locs . I like doing my own hair and I don’t want to be limited to finding a “good” loctition. Because a lot of women with sister locs complain about that & now with covid they’re panicking and can’t do their own hair

[@MakaykayLAMB]

Umm do you wear makeup or are you just genuinely stunning and flawless? Cos... HOW SIS? lol.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Babygirl! Aww your so sweet thank you!☺️🤭💞but nah hun no heavy makeup just a some eyeliner on the eyes and brows and lip gloss ya feel me hehe 🤪..thanks for the love Makaela!🖤

[@shantys768]

Hello from Toronto, Canada. I have braidlocs that were done by a certified sisterlocks locitican. I have the same grid and she maintains it by interlocking. Even tho it was done like sisterlocks and often gets mistaken for it, I always clarify that it’s Braidlocks. Shoutout to everyone including yourself that maintains their own locs, it’s really inspiring!

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Shanty!👋🏽 Shout-out to Toronto!🙌🏽,Oh snap that’s pretty interesting that you got a certified Sisterlocks loctitian to establish your braidlocks. I’ve heard stories of certified loctitians being so dedicated to the “brand” that anything outside of using that tool is a no-go. But I like how you make it known you got braidlocks💪🏽, from your pic they are gorgeous and T-I-N-YYYYYY lol. Hope your enjoying your braidlocks journey love and of course thanks for watching!💖

[@queenbimbo]

Do you mind sharing where you got yours done?

[@LifewithTeddyy]

Hey girl I’m from Toronto as well and I’ve been looking into sister locks and micro locks. Who established your locks?

[@SisterlockedPrincess]

Subscribed to your channel, from NJ! I am on my 3rd set of locs (my first 2 sets were Sisterlocks, which I took down due to thinning from health issues). I am now self-maintaining my diy microlocs, that I started with two-strand twists, interlocks, and even some braidlocs. The area of my head, and the curl pattern of that area, were the determining factors on how each particular section of locs were established. Now, 5 months in, they all look the same, and you can’t even tell which are which!

[@LaZy3LocD]

SomeKinksSomeKurls, thanks for sharing this! Exactly my point I wanted to get through in this video. You definetly had some experience with having small locs and I really appreciate you taking the time to tell us your experience in your loc journey! I also noticed too how over time you honestly can’t even tell the difference when it locs up. I hope your enjoying your new set of DIY Microlocs and you go girl for self maintaining!💪🏽💁🏽‍♀️...also shout out to New Jersey! 🙌🏽 and thanks so much for your subscription!💖

[@lashataylor7390]

My microlocs were established by a loctatian. But thanks to KZbin University I have been maintaining my microlocs all on my own. 😁

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hahaha “KZbin University” 🤣🤣🤣...lol you ain’t never lie Lasha! YT is too clutch...and congrats on taking over your own reties!🙌🏽, I know you must feel so good knowing you could do it all ON YOUR OWN!🙌🏽💪🏽

[@rovetsenior9869]

Girl you on point I am so happy and proud of all the DIY who branded their own locks that’s a connection right their between them and the locks , also this video is the best you tell it like it is. Your the best.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Rovet!👋🏽 girl yes, you and me both. And the more I see all these DIY’ers come out with their gorgeous heads it just fascinates me!😍...and I so appreciate your words hun, what you just said keeps me motivated to keep making content for you all so thank you love💖💖💖

[@jaykay242]

Subscribed! I started with sisterlocks and my loctician maintained them for a year but for the last 2 years I've maintained them myself. This has now been the true meaning of hair freedom for me. I do my reties in sections over several days and honestly it's not that bad. I agree with you 100% that you must have the time to invest.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Jay!👋🏽...thanks for subscribing💕 🙂...yes speak on that hair freedom🙌🏽. I think the big giveaway on what you said is how you do your reties in sections. Definelty less intimidating and you already sounding like a self-retie pro...you go lady Jay 💪🏽

[@akiac.8101]

How long does it take you to retwist your hair??

[@jaykay242]

@@akiac.8101 I never do it in one sitting. I limit myself to 2 hours a day. So about 4 hours total.

[@_justcmb]

New Subbie watching from SC and love your content!! You are so beautiful and chill lol! I did my DIY microlocs back in April. Since my big chop back in 2013 I've been caring for my own hair and at this point I couldn't imagine it any other way. I also love the fact that should I need to get help from a stylist or professional I can tell them exactly what I've been doing with my hair. Starting my loc journey has revived my excitement for my hair. I'd done literally everything under the sun with my loose natural hair and was over it. I love watching so many beautiful ladies enjoying their journeys as well!

[@LaZy3LocD]

I appreciate this so much. I was going to pay the $$$ but got so much pleasure from doing it myself

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey StephanieJ 👋🏽! Your so welcome 🙂I’m glad you decided to loc your hair on your own specifically because of the feeling you just expressed. It truly is such an awesome feeling knowing “you did that” congrats on the self establishment hun!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Hahaha, thanks for the love MathCruz! Perseverance is key! 🔑

[@kellya3162]

Agreed! There's no right or wrong way to start. I chose the sisterlock route because I know I could not do neat parts and wanted interlocks which at the time I couldn't do...but so many of these DIY microlocs look absolutely awesome! It really boils down to what works for your lifestyle. I have learned to retie my hair just in case I ever have to do it myself...currently I'm digging the 2 1/2 hrs for someone else to do these 600 locs.. but that can change up real quick. I'm only at year 1.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Kelly!👋🏽...thanks for stopping by to the channel🙂...I see we share similar sentiments on our sisterlocks journey. Both you and I have the same exact reasoning behind choosing one loc technique over the other. Lifestyle was def my biggest factor in choosing SL’s, but if I had the patience I would have certainly DIY my own locs...congrats on your SL’s journey though...that first year is so cool! I do miss it sometimes lol...I hope your loving it so far!🤗💖

[@reneejackson7900]

From California I love this !!! I think I would let a certified location do my micro locs ,but I will maintain my own keep up. Thanks for the positive and good info sis 🖤✌🏾✊🏿

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Renee! Yea I think that’s a great Idea! That’s what I did and I don’t regret it at all, save them coins!🙂

[@fatimamanneh9432]

I started my locs with braids i have 200 maintaining them myself is very easy for me because I box braided my own hair for many years so I am enjoying the journey and yes my braidlocs look just like microlocs no one can tell the difference oh by the way I am in Washington state

[@LaZy3LocD]

Shout out to the Dub A!! And that’s the best part I think about having less DIY locs because it’s way more manageable. 200 locs isn’t bad at all. Glad your enjoying and thanks for sharing this Fatima 💖

[@angelfiyah]

Check this out: I have had them all accept Braidlocs. I have had 2 sets of Sisterlocks, traditional locs started palm rolled, 2 strand twist, and coils. I have had free form and I am in the process of combing out semi-free form locs. I have been natural since 1995. I have worn an afro, and every damn natural style there is. I have owned a natural salon and been Sisterlock trained. Therefore, to answer your question about what makes SisterLocks, Sisterlock is this or should I say use to be this: the Sisterlock tool and the Sisterlock grid pattern and the different locing patterns (4 , 3, reverse 4 and double 3 patterns) and the price tag. But now everybody has seen and leaned the grid and you can buy a Nappy Loc tools and her book that give the same patterns but call it something else, north, south, east etc with the rotations. Lastly, it's 2020 it doesn't matter how you maintain your Sisterlocks as long as you or your installer produce a consistent pattern without any gaps. If you get gaps in your Sisterlocks they will eventually break off, bunch, shad out instead of in. just a hot mess over time. I am getting braid loc next and for the last time (getting too old to start over again) because from my experience installing braid locs on others, the install will stay consistent because no no locking pattern needs to be determined it's a braid 3 strands. Some installers get fatigued and miss a rotation here and there with interlocks and Sisterlocks when establishing/installing all the extra small loc. Also, Braidloc can be maintained with any tool and Sisterlocks can too. I use to retie SisterLocks with a Nappy Loc tool (much easier and quicker for me). At end of the day, you are right they all will end up the same locs. I personally call them all MICRO LOCS PERIOD.

[@angelfiyah]

@@LaZy3LocD You are welcome, yes it's been many years in the game and truly it's been complicated for no damn reason. Just be glad that it is 2020, because back in 1999 when I got my training in Sisterlocks, it was hell. Also, the certification process honestly wasn't and still is not about saying a person have expertise in producing Sisterlocks and I'm going to leave it at that. Back then if we Sisterlocked trained technicians tried to share this information about Sisterlocks like I just did, girl! You would have Joanne’s occult members literally stalking, calling your home or shop threatening to whoop your ass all day everyday! She was trying to sue everybody too. Thank God she got old and her dye hard Sisterlock team is old (they should be hitting their 60’s) and the creation of all these different social media platforms grew and saturated the foolishness. They use to go hard for Joanne tho! They were like the 🙈 monkeys 🙊 going hard for the bad witch in the movie The Wizard of Oz Lol I sided with the the Nappy Locs. I wasn't going to be part of anything remotely reassembling Fascism. Lol no sheep here lol We have our own minds and creativity and no chick was going tell me what, when and how I was going to conduct my hair 💈 business. I have mad stories I can tell you during that period. I must say, I do appreciate Joanne coming up with the process of SisterLocks. It opened the doors 🚪 for women of any economic and educational background ground to be able to make unlimited amounts of potential money sitting on a stool in the privacy of ones home. Her method and business platform got a lot of single women with children out of proviety and even abusive situations These women started to live better lives, lives they never thought possible and that's one of the main reasons they went hard for her. However, Joann is narcissistic and she use the hell out of them especially the poor uneducated women to do her negative self absorbed bidding and that was the terrible part. However, it’s still just another method that one can chose to loc hair down and their should never be any hard core set rules to how you start, maintain them or even change up the grid to suite your clients head needs Lol Enjoy your platform and keep up the good work! Open them folk eyes! ✌️ Peace Sis!

Loving your energy! #newsubbie in Florida 😍 I’m new to micro locs. Going this route cause my hair is fine/thin and the coils won’t stay 😞 I refuse to pay thousands for hair that grows outta my head. Congrats to those that do. To each they own. (But they way my checking & savings is set up) 😂🤣😂 I can’t do it. I don’t maintain mine (yet) I just ordered to tool and wanted more time to properly learn how to interlock before I end up with knots and holes from doing it wrong. My end goal is to self maintain.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Beautiful Dis8tr👋🏽! Thanks for subscribing and shout out to Florida!🌴love your approach on why your choosing microlocs...such a easy alternative to get relatively the same look as sisterlocks besides having “the grid”. By now you probably have your tool and becoming acquainted so take your time...remember is a journey, your journey...congrats on your decision to loc up!🙂💕💕🙌🏽

[@niyahguthery]

these are great questions! Im currently chronicling the same topic on my channel. However, In my opinion I feel like the grid is what sets Sisterlocks apart in the world of microlocs. Nevertheless, I still feel that you can have a beautiful head of locks with micro locks or braid locks as well.

[@LaZy3LocD]

I felt this comment 💯, and I think you have a true point..because if we take away the grid, aren’t it all the same anyways? I’m all for whatever floats the boat..OMY to subscribe to your channel right now :), and thanks for showing perspective hun! 💖

[@schrijfeenboek]

anyone can do or copy that grid if they want to its not rock science

[@LaZy3LocD]

Yep...totally agree E, too many rules for me!

[@LaZy3LocD]

Lol and this is VERY true Microlocsfan...😂

[@schrijfeenboek]

@@user-zx1ii7vf2z true but its important to know that even if you cant diy neat sections and cant find anyone to do it for you or dont have the funds you can still (with the help of youtube) have beautifull microlocs even if the grid is not perfect. I've read that sometimes the grid dissappears too without that negatively effecting the health of the locs. Melissa blakes, a former sisterlocksconsultants does microlocs without a grid with her knotted locks method. When locs mature the hairs know better to grow into the locs. Some women are to insecure and falsely believe they can never achieve this themselves and thats a shame and sad. Just because company's make it seem like a very complicated technique. While the hammertribe in ethiopia, africa have been doing gorgeous microlocs without all the rules. If you can (box)braid your hair or twist it, you can do your own microlocs. Perfection is not always neccesary for beautifull results. But i agree with you that the better the foundation the easier.

Greetings from Oregon. Number one, you’re gorgeous and your vibe is amazing! Going to start micro braid locs after researching for a few years. I love your sentiments on locs. I like how you address how early on in the game in youtube it was like you HAVE to go to a loctician or your locs will fail, that intimidated me a lot but in the last year or so I’ve seen much more promotion and support of diy locs and I really appreciate this video! It definitely gave me some confidence. I’ve been doing my own small braids with braiding hair for a few years after moving here and learning it was time to be self sufficient when it came to my hair and I’m super juiced to start my locs and continuing to follow the journey of other amazing women like yourself. Blessings 💜

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Cosmic Bliss👋🏽...shoutout to Oregon!🙌🏽 yea a Loctitian isn’t necessary at all, and I know you feel so empowered with knowing how to do your own small braids all these years...if you can do that then you can DEFINITELY establish and maintain your own microlocs, get excited cause your gonna love the journey! 🙂💖

[@ConfidentCoachCJ]

New subbie here! I am contemplating microlocs. I think the whole sisterlocks thing is overrated...again my own opinion. People can normally charge the most $ because the average person doesn't typically know how to do it. It's just like any other style until people start learning how to do it themselves there is a premium cost associated with it.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey CJ!👋🏽...thanks for subscribing! 🙂💕💕, I completely agree with your perspective on why you want microlocs and I feel your opinion is valid. Once you learn the skill of interlocking your good! Don’t need to pay $$’s for something unless you wanna just sit back and be pampered. Get excited for your new loc journey!🙂🙌🏽

I’m glad you made this post. It was very confirming. Finances made it necessary for me to diy and so glad I did. Everything you said is “gospel”. It is very time consuming ....tedious ...that “gridding” process is a nightmare ...

It’s been a very enlightening experience. Thanks!

Tunning in from New Mexico! You have sisterlocks because of the grid technique. The sister below said they dont own the grid but they actually do. Thats what its all about besides the tool they use and the fact that the person doing it is actually certified to do so. A lot goes off into their system that we dont see. I have MicroLocs that I started myself years ago without knowing that I was doing micro locs lol.

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Comely 👋🏽, shout out to New Mexico!🙌🏽so the grid does make it sisterlocks right? Because I was always thinking it was the tool and how the tool was used that made it sisterlocks lol. And I think that’s cool how you were already ahead of the curve before microlocs were even a thing lol😄👌🏽

[@winnienginja7591]

Watching from Nairobi. Confused and i just dont know which locks to put. I used to have parmed hair but after stroke last September, i don't want to go through the parming process. Which would you advise

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Winnie! Sorry for getting to you so late, but I would say go with the sisterlocks or microlocs. I actually started my locs on relaxed hair with about 3 inches of new growth. You wanna take it easy especially with your health being a factor. I would go Sisterlocks/Microlocs for sure! Hope this helps 🙂

[@FITH5795]

i think the grid is OVER RATED. GOOD information Sis

[@LaZy3LocD]

Lol SO OVERRATED...after 4+ years idk what a dang grid is anymore 😂

Look at it this way- If you bought some Nike Sneakers & dyed them - they would still be Nikes. If you bought a car & had to replace car parts as they Broke down you still call the car by they make/model. So call your locs Sister Locks if you want to & if you don't want to - don't🤷🏽‍♀️

[@LaZy3LocD]

Great car analogy! Love it! 💕💕

I combed out my locs and debating on sister locs or micro locs

[@LaZy3LocD]

Hey Prettygolden, oh wow you actually combed out your locs! That’s impressive, did you lose alot of hair? And I mean to me the deciding factor between SLs and MLs comes down to if you want the SLs grid pattern 🤷🏽‍♀️

It's the grind, size and pattern. there's actually no difference in a certified consultant and a trainee. Both have the same training and technique. The certified just paid more money to get certified so she can charge MORE.😆
