Lovely video. Forgive me but you miscalculated, it's 1800 seconds, which is just 30 minutes, not an extra five hours.

You are correct. My 18k from jump should have been 1800. If it was 18k then the 300 minutes makes sense. But since it is 1800 as you said (3 seconds by about 600 locks), you are correct. Thank you for the clarification.

I love that you keep it real. Some people are afraid to even show the tool...which is crazy to me. I’ve been retightening my own hair since I got them installed because I refuse to fall in line with their rules and ideology. There is so much misinformation when it comes to sisterlocks.

watched this video two years ago before I sister loc'd my hair, and it's been the driving force behind empowering me to take control of my own loc journey. My loctician even called it quits because I was too particular, which turned out to be the best thing for me. I've been doing my own locs for about 21 out of the 24 months I've been loc'd. I never took a class or received formal training; I learned everything from KZitem University, and my locs look amazing! Doing my own locs taught me so much about my hair - what I like, how tight I want them, how often I want them done, and even what shampoo works best for me. Plus, I can wash my hair weekly to fit my workout schedule, even though it caused some slippage. But I learned how to fix any issues on my own. I can't thank you enough because some locticians try to control you and keep you tied to their schedules, charging crazy prices for maintenance. And if you dare speak up, they'll drop you as a client. But thanks to you, my hair and I are truly free. So, thanks, sis!

I have always thought that tool as tearing my hair especially when she would snatch it through. There is a bright side to everything because of Covid my old Loctician wanted me to get the 72 hour covid test which is not free. It would cost me $145-185 out of pockect before getting my hair locked. Even though I would wear a mask and sometimes I would wear the N95 mask while getting my hair done and have my temp taken.The cost of me getting my hair done would be almost $400.00 a month. I have alsways thought getting my hair done every four weeks was way too much stress on my hair but I went because there are not other sister locs providers in my area. So I started doing my own re ties.

Can't wait for you develop that tool or whatever it is to curl locs. I like curls and just love how curls formed by pipe cleaners look, but I am afraid to use them because my hair is already thin so I don't want to risk even more thinning more just to get pipe cleaner looking curls. Thank you so much for these very informative videos.

Love this! You are so on point about learning to be in the driver’s seat of your own life. That SL tool is the equivalent of a tiny plastic crochet hook-that’s all. I was in the SL universe for about two years and I had to leave it. It fosters a certain level of loctician arrogance , money grubbing, and client disrespect. I couldn’t take it anymore and it impacted how I felt about my hair being SL. I picked them out-twice! Because the second time I thought I had gotten the experience wrong so I got them again. Nope. I was right the first time! Had a wonderful first install for my first SL but the loctician was not taking new clients for reties thus began my journey of nightmarish loctician scenarios. I had to get out of it.

4 seconds times 600 locks is 2400 seconds. Divided by 60, that is 40 minutes “extra”. The sisterlocks tool slows you down considerably so it may equal out.

Thank you for sharing. I think overtime the investment is worth it whether it's SL or microlocks. People often waste money on cell phones, cable and eating out etc., and they aren't rich. The return on these things Is marginal so best. These kinds of hairstyles payoff in the long run if you take care of the hair. The upfront cost can be prohibitive as you state, but when we examine what we end up doing with our money anyway, sometimes it can seem more affordable for thise who might otherwise think it's out of reach.

Having just had my locks installation completed yesterday, I can say that the tool does catch onto and pull the hair. It is very painful. The tapestry needle is a much better option. Much, much better. Also, I asked to see the tool during my consultation and while there wasn’t an out and out refusal to share it, I didn’t actually see it until the install. 🫣 It is an ill shaped crochet hook.

Thanks for this video, it was very helpful and made a lot of sense. I really feel just like you about knowing what works best for your hair and not listen to everyone else's opinion not even a loctician. That's exactly what I did when I got my sisterlocks installed 2 months ago. My hair started locking faster after I started misting my hair daily with rosewater and peppermint oil mix together. I stopped braiding my hair down at night because it made my locs look skinny and so I was like how is my hair going to lock and matte up if I'm keeping the hair shaft smoothed down. Within a few days of me doing what I thought made sense and worked better for my hair I began to see better results.

Hey Sis! Double check what I said. Im not sure where I may not have been clear. I don't have a video as such.
