Sisterlocks™ is a natural hair management system that creates tiny style-able locks. It allows women with tightly textured hair to take advantage of a wide range of today's hairstyles without having to alter the natural texture of their hair, add any products or heat.
The establishment session is based on hair length and density. The session is scheduled for 2-3 consecutive days. The projected time will be discussed at the consultation. Flexibility is necessary when it comes to planning for the establishment. The beauty of Sisterlocks™ is that tightening them as your hair grows is simple since there are no extensions to remove and re-set.
Yes. Though the transition will take more time, your hair care professional who is trained in Sisterlocks™ techniques can help you make that transition. Your styling options will increase as your natural texture grows out. Tracey's Locs requires at least 3 inches of natural hair to start.
Just the opposite! Sisterlocks™ is a gentle technique that requires no chemicals, no excessive tightening, and causes no damaging abrasion to the hair or scalp. You will find that with regular care, low style manipulation during the early stages, your locks will grow and grow.
There is no way to determine an actual time. Locks can take anywhere from six months to over a year to form. Your consultant will keep you informed of your lock progress during the retightening appointments. Patience!
Coloring is a chemical process which will change the texture/curl pattern of your hair AND can cause issues in the formation of your locks. Please talk to your consultant before applying color.
Establishment price is given at the consultation. Starting price is based on Hair length only. A non-refundable deposit is required to schedule the establishment. The deposit is applied to the balance of the establishment. Estimates for the establishment session expire 30 calendar days from the consultation.
