SISTERLOCKS™ & MICROLOC EDUCATION
Three fingers of new growth in Sisterlocks™ or Microlocs is not just “a lot of growth” — it’s often a sign of extended time between reties.
Because interlocked systems secure the root, new growth continues to expand at the base when maintenance is delayed. Over time, this can lead to:
• root swelling
• matting at the base
• root thinning and weak anchor points
• increased tension during reties
While hair typically grows about ¼–½ inch per month, stretched retie schedules allow multiple months of growth to stack in one area, putting stress on the root.
Healthy Sisterlocks™ and Microlocs depend on:
✔️ consistent retie schedules
✔️ proper interlocking rotation
✔️ scalp health and moisture balance
Growth is normal.
Neglect is not.
Save this for Sisterlocks™ & Microloc education
