Tired of spending hours washing, drying, and styling your hair? Do you love traditional locs but don’t feel like they are versatile enough? Then Sisterlocks might be for you!
Recommended Video Sisterlocks are a specific type of micro sized locs, also known as microlocs, that provide hair freedom for all its wearers – freedom from hair products, freedom from combs and brushes, freedom to style your hair as you see fit, and freedom to embrace your natural hair.
According to Sisterlocks originator and company founder, Dr. JoAnne Cornwell, “Sisterlocks is not about a hairstyle, it’s about a lifestyle. Sisterlocks invites women who are interested in self-empowerment and cultural self-expression, to embrace their natural hair with a care system that is self-affirming and truly gorgeous.”
Let’s have look at the difference between traditional locs, microlocks and Sisterlocks and have all your questions about the cost, installation and maintenance answered.

Hair Texture
One of the largest differences between the three types of locs are the hair textures that are best suited for each locking style. For microlocks and Sisterlocks, textured hair – coily and kinky hair, work best. But you can start these locs with relaxed hair, too. You can start it on short hair or when transitioning from relaxed to natural hair.
With traditional locs, any hair texture will do because there are so many ways to start these locs.

Installation and Cost
Sisterlocks can only be installed by an official Sisterlocks practitioner, all of whom are listed on their website. To minimize tension, these micro-sized locs are interlocked from tip to root and require a patented interlocking tool. Sisterlocks establishment can take anywhere from a couple of hours to multiple days to complete depending on your hair length, density, loc size, location, and your consultant’s experience level.
