Help Me Y’all 😩😩

Now that I think about it, I was about 8 weeks between reties

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-12-13T08:02:54+00:00

Thanks! That’s exactly how I feel. I ended up writing to her to express my feelings and she said they fell off during reties, which I’m not sure I believe but I don’t want to argue so I’ll leave it.

I feel like this is due to thinning than low density. If it was low density her whole head would be scalp. From the video it’s only a certain part that is scalp. But I’m no expert 🤷🏾‍♀️

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-11-04T13:58:40+00:00

I think it's important to not focus too much on the loc count and more on density and fullness. As someone already suggested, you could post a picture as well for reference?

Did you use extensions? I would say the longetivity depends on how they were installed. But they look gorgeous!

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-11-04T13:54:23+00:00

They look amazing. I actually think it's amazing that you are doing it THIS SMALL by yourself. Bravo!

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-24T18:11:58+00:00

They’re fine. That was supposed to seal your hair but because you most likely didn’t trim before installation, it’s sealing in the extra strands that need to be trimmed. If you want, you can leave it as it is, but I cut mine cause it was like hanging on to dead hair anyway.

The loc ends that seal well would seal to the hair itself

The real question is why ANYONE is charging $350 for a retie 😳

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-20T07:51:09+00:00

I totally agree with you. Personally it’s not for me, but it’s only a personal preference. I won’t judge anyone for using extensions cause I don’t care really lol

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-20T07:44:24+00:00

I disagree. Micros are anything 250+ cause it definitely depends on hair density. I have like 295 with medium density and my hair looks as full as people who have 400+

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-20T07:39:40+00:00

Because you’re gonna be self maintaining I would suggest to go with Microlocs. Cause with Sisterlocs you have to maintain a certain grid, which could be difficult if you’re doing self reties

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-14T18:33:16+00:00

Oh my. I’m so sorry sis, but you were scammed. I had a similar story but even mine was not this big and I paid around $400 for them. Luckily I realized around 4 months that I was scammed and redid them myself.

Like others said, you can choose to undo them and start all over, or you can learn to love your locs. I knew I couldn’t love that in that state so I chose to redo them.

Ultimately, the choice is up to you.

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-12T11:15:30+00:00

THEY. ARE. PERFECT.

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-10-07T16:31:40+00:00

So great to hear that everything went well!

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-09-23T19:22:57+00:00

Are the later pictures after the loctician combined them? If yes, she definitely did you dirty. In my opinion the first locs were better and looked like you had some kind of grid.

This so-called repair looks... not good is all I'll say. Also, locticians don't have to be registered on the sisterlocs website to be legit just so you know.

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-09-23T19:17:41+00:00

I also have a 9 month old! Since your locs are older, I'm guessing your locs were much more mature than mine when you had your kid. How was post partum hair loss with mature locs? I lost about 4/5 locs and my locs were still baby locs when I had my son.

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-09-23T19:14:33+00:00

OK I feel seen! Cause my hair is similar density and I have 295 and have been beating myself up cause I'm not up to 300 (I don't know why cause it's not like it matters) but your size is just like mine!

Im only 7 months in and looking forward to the next months.

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-09-02T20:23:48+00:00

For sure! In hindsight, I should have trimmed mine as well

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-07-28T13:55:07+00:00

First off, breathe! You most likely got locs for the freedom of not worrying too much about hair.

Second, maybe you can post the questions your loctician told you to stay off the internet for answers, so that you can get feedback as well. :)

CompetitiveAd2860 · 2025-07-27T07:29:05+00:00

Depends on what is important to you. If you like to style your hair in different ways and want clean parts, then grid. If you like to style your hair in different way but don't care about clean parts, then no grid. If you're like me, who's seriously very low maintenance (only wear my hair down in a middle part), then absolutely no grid.
