Hey Hey Soap Nation! Long time no live and I did a thing. I got Sisterlocks. This video will give you a brief look at what my experience was with the process from consultation to installation. I also discuss why I got them and what nobody told me on RU-vid about getting Sisterlocks.

I just had my install on 5/28. I did not experience any pain with my install and I am tender headed. My install took 19 hours. I am 2 weeks in and love them! Good luck on your journey. I look forward to more videos. I am also documenting my journey. Thank you! Peace!

@ZakiaRinggold 24 дня назад

So excited for you!!! Congrats on taking the plunge! I just cut mine as they had grown so long. Now I have a short pixie cut with my locs. I’ll be posting a video update in the coming week. Looking forward to following your journey as well.

Hello Queen. I'm a new sub! Love the locs, nice! 30 hours, carefully done i'm sure. Grid is very precise, I see. What a great bday present to self. Definitely get up and go hair! I looooove my sisterlocks! Best choice i've ever made with my hair, started my youtube channel about sisterlocks and other things. I love that your doing a video with your products in the back. African american Entrepreneurs it's so lovely to see. Kudos. Tying the locs up at night is crucial! Way to go.

I love how your locks look on you. The style looks like it could be your signature. Sort of like how Meg Ryan’s hair style is her signature. You say your hair is thin, but on camera it doesn’t show that. I only have 420 locks that are very tiny which says mine is extremely thin. Welcome to the journey. I love your personality and energy.

@NatsukoIzuki Год назад

I love your video and how you explained how your journey start was for you! I'm supposed to have a consultation in about 2 weeks and I'm super excited. I've been reading/watching videos and learning a lot about sisterlocks. One thing I liked about sisterlocks is how it seems you can style it in anyway (once it grows out if its short) which I can't do with my short fro and that it's a natural hair style. I've been trying to figure out what to do with my hair these past few years since I got the big chop a few months before the pandemic to get rid of my damaged hair from getting relaxers and stuff.

@ZakiaRinggold Год назад

Thanks for watching and yes there is a ton of versatility even when your Locs are short. What I really love about it is get up and go. During my natural days I would try to do wash and gos and it typically turned into an oh no 🤣🤣🤣it really has been a great decision for me and it’s one less thing to worry about.

@NatsukoIzuki Год назад

@@ZakiaRinggold I've since then got them installed, and omg yes, being able to get up and go and not worry about doing your hair is just great!

@danamarie6066 3 года назад

Hey Zakia! I just recently found your channel and WOW! Lots of good soap stuff on here...but since we're discussing hair (as sistaz must from time to time) tell me, does ur loctician do regular locs? I'm in Overbrook and looking for a loctician who can care for my hair like I want to. Let me know if she does! PS: I JUST started soaping and I'm lovin your soap studio!

@sherryblaylock6115 3 года назад

Wow you had 7 inches! I have not had my hair measured but it’s got to be at least 15 or 16. I don’t want to cut it. It I may have to for pricing.

@ZakiaRinggold 3 года назад

It’s definitely a personal and financial decision. If my hair was that long I think I would commit to saving an additional 100 per month for a sister lock fund for a set amount of time. Once I got to say 4 months with extra 400 saved I would go by whatever that pays for or whatever I was comfortable with for the extra length

@chervinebyers528 3 года назад

I have shoulder length thinking about cutting for the price too

@bettyhenderson1621 3 года назад

@@chervinebyers528 don't cut it. They actually go more by density than length...

@portiamckinney5501 3 года назад

Not necessarily that ppl lied it just that just because it took 30 for your head doesn’t mean that it would have taking 30 hr for everybody head . Such as me it only took me a total of 16 hr period

@sparker7768 3 года назад

Agreed It really all depends on the skill level/experience of your consultant, and the length and density of your hair. Pain is also an individual experience...I never had any, but I don't consider myself to be "tenderheaded".

@ZakiaRinggold 3 года назад

Agree with both of you everyone’s mileage may vary. Looking forward to seeing your journeys

@baztecbaztec582 2 года назад

@@TheRealKylaB EXACTLY! I'm about to loose my religion! Those same folks talking about "hurting" are going to be complaining once their hair falls out. Years ago I went to a salon for Micro Braids and it felt like she was ripping my scalp out...I complained, she needed a translator, but she continued braiding loosely for about 2-3 rows and started ripping my scalp out again! My phone rang, I answered purposely saying yes and oh no!!!. When I hung up the phone and yes I lied. I said "I have an emergency and need to leave"...I walked out to a lot of chatter in their native tongue. Why, people, why?!! Hurting=damage to your scalp and follicles. Repeated damage to those same areas(grid)...😭😭😭 Someone needs to do a video about all this "hurting"!

@ZakiaRinggold 2 года назад

I can appreciate the concerns luckily for me I know the difference between damage and tender head. I’ve been this way my entire life. I am now almost 2 years in and my hair has flourished beautifully. Please take a look at my recent broadcast today…no hair loss

@baztecbaztec582 2 года назад

@@ZakiaRinggold The damage (alopecia) evolves over time. Leave if your reties hurt. Being tender-headed is a gift, if it hurts-leave. Why are you justifying the pain-leave if it hurts. Pain= damage!
