Sisterlocks Installation - Fine/Thin Natural Hair

Let's talk sisterlocks on fine/thin hair. If you're wondering how your thin natural hair will do on this type of loc journey, hopefully coming along with me on my journey can help! Thin hair can be a deterrent for women who want sisterlocks, but it doesn't have to be.
Stay connected with me on Instagram : @therealKylab for more :)

Yes, thank you so much. I have wanted and avoided locs for this reason.

[@kiyomiluv]

Thank you so much for the knowledge sis ❤️ Us fine haired naturals get no love in a lot of these places so I appreciate you so much for this

[@aleashamason8497]

Thank you - I have ‘cotton’ hair too, looks full then you can literally squeeze it into nothing 😂. I was nervous about sister locs. Yours are gorgeous

[@TheRealKylaB]

thank you!

[@ladypecan72]

Oh my God you just answered all of my fine hair questions... Thank you so much for choosing to do this channel because you were speaking to my soul... Now I'm confident about getting the sisterlocks

[@SharidaM]

I have fine hair as well. Loving my journey so far! My babies turned 1 in June.

[@TheRealKylaB]

Happy 1 year ! ❤️ ❤️

[@promostk]

I am so excited for my journey also...

[@nonnieJ94]

I have a sister loc consultation on Saturday and I’m so freaking excited. I’ve been searching for someone who’s hair looks similar to mine. Your hair is around the same length. Box braids did the same thing to my edges. You look gorgeous with locs. I’m incredibly excited to start my journey!! Thank you so much because this video gave me so much confidence

[@TheRealKylaB]

Thank you. 🥰 & yes! You should be! & I'm happy to hear that my video was helpful to you! I hope your consultation goes well. 💖

[@KenyaisBadd]

Omg 😱 I am literally in love with your hair . I’m a hairstylist and I’ve always said to myself that I’m gonna loc my hair but know my hair would never be those thick bulky locs (what I’ve always wanted 😭😭) because my hair was on the finer side . Definitely have a lot of it just super fine . And I’m just here watching random videos and here you are having me ready to clear my schedule and do this install . I am so IN LOVE with your hair . Beautiful head of hair and beautiful job done by the stylist

[@TheRealKylaB]

Thank you so much! 💖🥰 & yes! Go for it! It can be done! I will be sure to pass the compliment to her!

[@brittneer8940]

I know this is old but so happy I found ur videos. I just installed 390 microlocs. Im also high density fine hair ❤️ only seen one other person besides you with the same hair as mine

[@TheRealKylaB]

Yeah. There weren't too many people to look at in terms of what to expect with our hair type. So I decided to go for it, hope for the best, and record my journey. I'm very happy it is working out and very happy that putting my journey online has helped so many other women with our hair type to take a leap of faith and loc their hair too. Representation matter, right? ❤️ I also have around 390-395 locs too!

[@Massachusetts01]

My hair is very thin and fine. I had worn a TWA for many years and decided on locks. Had my sisterlocks installed in 2004. My journey has been long but I'm glad I stuck with it.

[@TheRealKylaB]

How has your been doing with sisterlocks? Did it gain any volume? Have you had any issues?

[@Massachusetts01]

My edges, which were barely there, are coming back. I don't do a lot of styling. My hair can't take the stress. Very simple updos work or a ponytail loosely bound. I think they always look elegant.

[@aliciaj1727]

Gurlllll, ur stylist did a hellava job. They look amazing. I'm trying to find a how to video so I can do my daughter's hair. She has fine hair as well and braids are always pulling her hair out so I wanna try something different.

[@79serenity1]

Wow... We were loose natural twins. I never considered my hair (except the front) fine or thin.. But yes, I had all of the issues (because of lack of knowledge) breaking edges from braids, transparent ends, as well as raggedy ends.. Because I have high density I considered myself having thick hair. So not true. Thanks for sharing. My consultation is in a couple of weeks and you are my loc'd sista crush.. Your hair is beautiful.

[@UniqueMasterpiece927]

I’m so glad I found your channel. I have fine higher density hair as well. I had to do my own locs for several reasons. My hair is shooooort though. I love your locs.

[@TheRealKylaB]

🥰 Thank you. I’m discovering that there are A LOT of women with fine hair. We want locs too. Lol

I’ve been debating for like 2 or 3 years. I’m so afraid. My hair is fine/thin - even more so than yours. The first person I went to for a consult told me I was not a good candidate. So I have been discouraged. Thank you for the inspiration. I may get another consult. Meanwhile, I’m rocking crochet braids.

[@wendyelizabethlambert4815]

Ok. I'm going to do the unthinkable. Lol. Sisters, hear me out ok, I'ma do this myself. I'm going to DIY my locs. I also have thin long hair and I mostly braid mine because I love braids but even braids can be a problem yes cause my scalp gets tired very quickly. I braid my hair every month into a different style. I'm also thinking I can get away with braids during locking process but not initially. Oh and the reason I'm opting to do my own locs.....I just really don't like someone else working on my hair.....Soooo wish me luck guys....lolllll and thanks so very much for sharing this awesome vid. Love and light💖💕✨

[@TheRealKylaB]

Lol. Good luck! I admire all of you who have DIY locs! You gotta do what’s best for you. I’m sure they’ll come out beautifully 💖

[@camara1194]

@@TheRealKylaB THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! as an actor and a musician i think this will open up myself for real. I do have a question! How do you dictate how the hair will look as to whether it’s an afro and it comes down or if it just falls? Is it the density of the hair that makes it fall? Is it the way it’s parted that dictates how it will lay?

[@TheRealKylaB]

You don’t dictate. The way your hair grows out of your scalp/ your hair’s natural characteristics determine the final outcome of your locs. That’s why locs look very from person to person.

It’s literally a journey. You don’t know what you’re gonna get until you get there. Lol

[@TheRealKylaB]

Happy to help. & it will depend on your consultant. Usually any time past 6 months is considered overdue, so your reti will take longer and you’ll likely have to pay more. But that’s definitely up to your consultant.

You can always learn how to retie your hair. That way you won’t have to depend on anyone unless you want to. I have microlocs that I started and I began my own reties. I started doing to a loctician about a few years after I started. I stopped going to her during CoVID but if I don’t feel like doing my retie I will call her.
