So it has been a little over a month since my daughter had her braidlocs installed and almost 4 since I had my sister locks installed. She had her first re-ti yesterday and I had my 3rd or 4th. Her hair is doing great. Although not much seems to be happening with my hair, it is getting a bit bulkier, although not much longer! I have also been fighting with 2, 3, and 4 headed dragons in the front half. Lots of snipping at my re-ti’s!
Still regularly curling my hair with softlocs; gives a nice curl until the next wash. little tray curlies along my hairline don’t make me so happy!
Your daughters hair looks great love the up do. Your hair looks good too looks a lot like mine
I am in Toronto so you are out of luck there. That being said, I think that in the end braidlocks and sisterlocks end up looking essentially identical. I certainly can’t tell that my daughter’s hair started out as braids. Perhaps it would be more obvious if the Locs were as big as mine. In fact I think her hair looks nicer, probably because she doesn’t have relaxed ends and her curl pattern is tighter. In summary, if you are going for small size Locs, I think braidlocks are just as good, assuming that the person who puts them in does a good pattern. If you want larger Locs, I would go for sisterlocks. Also, remember, the smaller the Locs, the longer the retighten!!!
