How to do Sisterlocks

@queen.Eileen (IG)

 Creating sisterlocks is a detailed and intricate process that is best performed by a certified sisterlocks consultant. It involves sectioning the hair, interlocking, and forming small, uniform locks. Here's a general overview, but I highly recommend seeking professional assistance for the best results:

1. Consultation: Start by consulting with a certified sisterlocks consultant. They will assess your hair type, texture, and discuss your desired outcome.

2. Preparation: Your hair should be clean, free of heavy products, and in its natural state. You may need to avoid chemicals or heat styling before the process.


3. Sectioning: The consultant will section your hair into small, uniform parts using a specific grid pattern. These sections will become the foundation for your sisterlocks.


4. Interlocking: Using a specialized tool, the consultant will gently interlock the hair within each section. This involves threading the hair through itself to create a lock.click here to buy sisterlocks tool 



5. Formation: As the interlocking progresses, the consultant will guide the hair to naturally coil and form tight locks. This can take several hours to complete.




6. Initial Styling: Once the sisterlocks are formed, your consultant may trim any uneven ends and style the locks to your liking.


7. Education: A crucial part of the process is learning how to care for and maintain your sisterlocks. Your consultant will provide instructions on washing, retightening, and general maintenance.


8. Follow-Up Appointments: Sisterlocks need periodic retightening to keep them looking neat and well-maintained. You'll need to schedule follow-up appointments every 4-6 weeks initially, and less frequently as your locks mature.

Remember, creating sisterlocks is a specialized skill that requires training and experience. Attempting to create sisterlocks without proper knowledge can result in uneven or damaged locks. It's advisable to seek out a certified sisterlocks consultant who can guide you through the process and help you achieve the desired results.

Why does density change when hair is in locs?

Image
  The density of hair appears to change when it’s in locs due to how the hair strands are structured and compacted in this style. Here’s a detailed breakdown: 1. Compression of Hair Strands  • When forming locs, the hair strands are tightly coiled, twisted, and sometimes matted together. This compression reduces the amount of space the hair takes up, making the hair feel denser or heavier in the locked areas. 2. Accumulation of Shedded Hair  • In loose hairstyles, shed hair falls out naturally. However, in locs, the shed hair remains trapped within the structure of the loc. Over time, this accumulation adds to the mass and density of each loc. 3. Reduction in Air Gaps  • Loose or free-flowing hair has more space between strands, which gives it a lighter appearance and feel. Locs, by contrast, have much less space between the strands because the hair is tightly packed, creating the impression of increased density. 4. Hair Growth Over Time  • As locs mature, more ...
