Your hair's B-T-Full! Those questions are killing me! lol I even got: I love your hair because I know it's real ( white boy) I normally wash my hair every other day with Head & Shoulders. I'm allergic to the petroleum in most hair products so I don't put anything else. That is it! wash- let it dry- braid or put rollers overnight to add volume. I re-tighten it, myself, once a month using safety pins ( movie and wine) lol. I haven't depended on anyone to do my hair in over 3 years!! One more thing: I think Head & Shoulders is helping in slowing down the locking process. I didn't want to lock too fast anyway. For coloring: I use Henna. Again: Your hair is beautiful!!
@fayetaylor19988 жыл бұрын
I get my install on 9/12/16. I want to eventually learn how to re tighten my own hair as well. Don't really want to depend on anyone. But I will go to the loctician for at least a year to make sure everything is cool. And I also use henna but was worried about using it once I'm loced. How is that working out for you? Is it hard to rinse out of the locs? Does any stay in the locs?

This was soooooooo helpful!! I'm seriously considering getting sisterlocks and am doing all the research I can on them, and even found an R certified locktician in my area from the sisterlock website. I just came to the realization at the age of 44 that I'm tired of dealing with braids, synthetic or human hair, trying to decide to what to do with my natural hair on a daily basis. (I've been natural for over 5 years) I'm all about ease and convenience, and while I understand sisterlocks are a commitment and a lifestyle change and a hit to the wallet, I'm ready for it.

@magictrick19767 жыл бұрын
thanks for the video! so what do you think about "dry locking" Sisterlocks? Im on my second set of Sisterlocks (long story). But for certain reasons, I decided on dry cleansing my scalp and hair (more details can be given if needed). when I had traditional locks this "celebrity" stylist would do scalp cleansing on me because she said my texture would take a long time to lock (I took them out after 2 years because they didn't lock lol) and to prevent bunching. all of her clients hair looked BEAUTIFUL, so I trusted her judgment, and I thought that this would be a good idea to try it out now with my Sisterlocks. So far I am extremely happy about the results! it looks like all the bloggers hair on youtube who have all these perfect locks from start to finish as opposed to looking like a shag rug or a wet dog like I did before (I used Sisterlocks products and banded properly and religiously). So my biggest issue now is wanting to know when I should transition from dry washing to "wet" washing my hair with traditional shampoos again. and when I do, should I begin to band again like my Sisterlocks are freshly installed. Thanks :)

You can totally wear a wig if you want, but you should make sure to protect your hair with a satin scarf or something. you could even braid it down, so this way when you aren't wearing your wig, you'll have a nice braid out ;)
