101: BEST Tool to REMOVE Sisterlocks/Microlocks. How I removed my Sisterlocks/ Microlocks. 

I'm choosing to take down my sisterlocs due to cost. It's too expensive to keep up

I’m not enjoying them anymore. I don’t feel good with them anymore. I’m really sad about it. But I want to just wear my hair short and natural. Since perimenopause, I just don’t want the amount of hair around my neck and ears. It’s feeling heavy and uncomfortable.

I'm taking mine down. I don't like the fact that a week after getting my retie, I have this puffy, soft, fuzzy new growth and my parts are almost nonexistent. Plus it's taking too long for my hair to fully loc. I'm over it! It's been since 2021 sheesh!

Thank you for this video!!!! I want to take my sisterlocks out. I had a tramatic experience finding different stylist. I have different size locs and so many thinning locs. I just want to take them out. I'll get sisterlocks again after my hair regains strength. Maybe a year or so.

I am two years and seven months in .My hair came out around my edges due to my Loctician,, making them too tight, and it will not lock properly in the back my hair grow and they fall out. I know it’s my Loctician,, but I have not find anyone. That’s really good at it repairing and maintenance in my locks.

I am considering it because of cost. I love my locks but I am now on a fixed income and my care team wants me to cut my hair. My life needs to be easier as I age.

Thanks for the tip. I have had my sisterlocs for almost 11 years, and I'm honestly just getting tired of them. I did have the intention of keeping them forever, lol but I think I'm just over them now.

Thank you so much for this video. I have had my sisterlocks for 10 yrs, maybe 11, and I'm ready to take them down. I don't hate them but I feel like they are beginning to thin and I have had cases where some of them would pop right in the middle so that was my cue to take them out. Been thinking about it for a year now because I didn't know how to do it, I was at a point where I was ready to cut them out but not anymore, so thanks once again.

I’m considering removing my locs after 20+ years because I’ve transitioned a lot out of my life since I got them and I want something new. Natural hair styles are more “accepted” in corporate than they were when I loc’d and I actually have the time and money to re-learn my loose hair than fussing with it back then. Plus, menopause and sweats make having a lot of hair on my head and neck unbearable. That’s what will probably make my decision for me 😅

I have mine for over 13 years now, as I'm having trouble getting mine retighten I am thinking about taking them out, but I don't want to cut and lose my hair., So I'll try opening the locks, thanks for your video.

I have very small traditional locs of different sizes; some of which are micro/sisterloc sizes… I am combing them out and documenting it. Honestly after 12 years, I’m just ready for a change. This video was so helpful!! I was STRUGGLING with the small locs and just cutting them off! (I have tailbone length loose hair once the loc is combed out so it was upsetting!)

Ready for a change. 5 Years in and ready to change up to different styles.

Thanks for this video!! 👍🏾👍🏾 for the past 2 weeks, I have been taking down my microlocs, this is year 2024 is year 2, I’m going to redo them some are off in size. After I take them out I wanna show my hair some much needed love and care. Plus no more dyeing my gray hairs, my hair is now in much better condition. My sister who is not a loctician nor a stylist started it, I didn’t have any idea of caring for it, plus I was dyeing it myself, long story short, with the dry issues and initially not doing the daily maintenance which I had no clue about, I didn’t like it and instead of keep on griping about I, I have decided to do something about it. I do have a loctician now she has started the repair process on my hairline and the nape of my neck…. So excited to redo it after I have taken the majority out. I plan to leave the fine ones cause I had to pull one out and I was tempted to cut it off 😅😅 the not no fine ones are easier to pull out. I’ve been using safety pin and my thumb suffered and is suffering. 😩 I tried the rat tail comb that didn’t work. I have been saturating my hair with lots of conditioner and water. To protect my thumb I wear a band aid on it and wear gloves. I will try the flea comb. Thanks!! Your hair looks great!! 👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️

The older I get, the worst my tender head becomes. I’m over it.

I'm taking my sisterlocks down because my consultant won't fix the bunching and holes, which will create a bigger problem later on. Also, no one wants to take on her work, and it's only been 3 months since it was installed.

I had a regular stylist (1st mistake) do my locks had major slippage. When she started my 1st retie put thread in my locks. On day 2 of scheduled retie, she ghosted me, left a message 8 days later, and said, "Let me check my calendar." Dropped her. Stylist 2 (another mistake) he finished the retie and tried to take the threads out. Went to a consultation with "Sisterlock loctian" I went in with the question should I restart? Especially after she said I had microlocks because of the different sizes of the locks.. and the soft texture of my hair... Last retie was in May scheduled for next week but I have

I originally got my Sisterlocks installed over 10 years ago but cut them off because my hair started falling out and I got scared. I got them installed again 3 years ago but my hair texture has changed after having children. I hate that I have to be delicate with my locs and I can’t style them the way I thought I could. My scalp is constantly sore in between reties and I’m just over it

I wanted sister locks but once I saw how they’re installed I decided to get retwist instead.

Thanks for the info! Bless you sis❤

I want to take my microlocs out because my hair texture is real fine and soft and the slippage is discouraging I can get a re twist and 2-3 days later my edges are unraveled 😢

I am considering because I have thyroid issues and it's causing breakage

After I dyed my locs , my hair shedded none stop

For those of you who’ve had them for years how long did it take you to take them down.

I want to take out my locks because I’ve had them for 8 years almost nine and I’m ready to try something new and I can’t get rid of the dandruff in my hair

I want them out cause my hair has become thinner I've been growing them for 2 1/2 years

I just don’t like them anymore. I’m not happy with them.

I want to take mine down bc my hair is so thin in the middle it doesn’t look good

I’m contemplating taking mine down because when my hair starts growing you don’t see my grid it’s frizzy and I don’t like how it looks when I pin it up. Don’t get me wrong a fresh retie and I love them up in a bun gorgeous. Once it starts growing it’s a wrap. Also my hair was s thinning in the front and I’m not liking the look. Any suggestions…

i am taking mine down i have different sizes and a week after I retie my hair its fuzzy and my parts are nonexistent and I am only 9mts in😪

I love my locs, but I'm considering taking them down because 1) I miss twisting my loose hair and 2) my shed hair is very visible; I'm kind of bothered by the little white bulbs you can see throughout. Any advice or suggestions?

I want to take mine down because I moved from New Jersey to a very small city called Abilene Texas and I just can't find a good Loctician around me. I have to travel 3 hours just to get my hair done and my patience is wearing thin. I have to take mine down.

I don’t think it was done right. There are a lot of knots in my hair. I had the two strands method done but it’s off. I have a curly texture of hair sort of.

Shedding ,thinning and losing locs I have had them 11years and they are a mess now...
