Sisterlocks® and Microlocks are both small, permanent loc styles, but they differ primarily in installation technique, size uniformity, and regulation.
About Sisterlocks®:
Sisterlocks®are tiny uniformed locks that are the result of a precise, trademarked parting grid and a specialized tool used to place the hair into its locking formation. The Sisterlocks®method does not require the use of waxes, gels, or any additional hair products. The small size and parting grid form easily styled locks similar to how you would style your natural hair.
About Microlocks:
Microlocks offer more flexibility, are typically larger, and can be started by using different techniques and without a rigid, trademarked parting grid.
With whatever loc style you decide to go with, professionalism is stressed at every stage and this begins with your consultation. The consultation is a structured conversation about loc style choice where your consultant can assess your specific hair care needs and provide guidance on beginning your hair journey.
Both permanent loc styles require regular retightening maintenance every 4 to 6 weeks as your natural hair grows.
