My sisterlocks were established and are maintained by:
Chastity Vaughn at S2R Hair Studio in Richardson, TX. Here's her website:

Here's how to book an appointment:

Products I recommend:
For Mature/Maturing locs
Re-tie update: I asked my stylist what she was spraying in my hair. It's a leave-in conditioner, which is says is okay because of the maturity of my locks (over 2 1/2 years now). Here it is:
Pravana Nevo Intense Therapy Leave-in Treatment amzn.to/3ONJPmx
Cheaper if you buy 2 amzn.to/3amaKqO
For your install day(s), I recommend multiple ways of keeping yourself entertained. I love audiobooks, so I would highly recommend audible. Here's a trial for audible premium plus (which includes one credit per month for an audiobook of your choice from the entire Audible catalog). Give it a shot for free and let me know what you think!

Happy 3yr locaversary congratulations! Beautiful Sisterlocs fullness and thickness with the length is gorgeous.
I’m glad I found a 4C locked woman. I just got locked a month ago. I’m so excited! My hair was bra strap length before I locked it. I’m in the beginner stages but so glad for this journey. Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thank you La Tonya! I’m planning a loc update video soon! Congrats on starting your new journey!
Hi Crista. That's quite the journey. Your hair is healthy and beautiful. TFS 😊
Hi Linda! Thank you!
Your locs have grown absolutely beautifully
Thank you ForeverBrittneyB!
Thank you for this! Your hair has truly flourished. I am planning to have sister locks installed and am in the research phase. After being natural for 8 years and just being over dealing with my hair, the fairy knots, the plethora of products needed and the frustration still at this stage. This video was very insightful. I thank you kindly for sharing ❤
You are very welcome! Happy to answer any questions as you research.
Happy 3 yrs Locaversary! Loving your SL!!!

I love your hair. It is absolutely gorgeous! I have sisterlocks as well. I have had them for a year and a half. I cannot wait to do a top bun 😊
Thank you! Yes, the top knot is my favorite Loc style!
Beautiful! My sisterlocks will be 2.5 years in Dec and I’m constantly in love with them!! My hair goal is bra strap too and I’m still struggling a bit with the messy top knot ☺️ hoping on my 3 yr mark I can get there
Hi Mrs. Joe joe, thanks for watching! I tried a crown braid and a low side bun until I could make the with high bun work, then when I was close to having the length to having the top bun, bobby pins got me through! So glad that you're loving your journey!
Absolutely beautiful! I have been seriously considering sis locs and you have definitely encouraged me to consider it even the more! Thank you for the info.💛
Thanks for watching! Do you know if there are certified consultants in your area that are taking new clients? I plan to do a video on how to prepare for installation soon. Hopefully it will be helpful!

Thanks shanteriabrown6762! I've been on a skincare journey since 2019! am: CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser, px clindamycin phosphate gel 1%, CeraVe moisturizing cream, black girl sunscreen spf 30/pm: same cleanser, same moisturizer THEN tretinoin .1% (started at .05%) every OTHER day, and finally more moisturizer.
Excellent video, thank you for sharing 💗
Thank you!
Your skin is flawless 😍😍😍
Thank you (and also cerave cleanser/moisturizer, tretinoin 0.1%, clindamycin phosphate gel, and black girl sunscreen)! Thanks for watching!

Happy Locaversary

Beautiful sis!
Thank you msgraytisfaction!
Thank You!🤓👍🏽
Thank you so much for watching Francine!
Thanks for the very in-depth share. Are sister locs and micro braids the same?
Hi Cynthia, that's a great question! No they're quite different. Here's my attempt at explaining: Sisterlocks are a specific interlock pattern made with a special tool to create the lock. Sisterlock Consultants are trained on how to interlock and create a specific patented sisterlock "grid" (the small square patterns of the lock parts). They look like small braids up close, but they are so small you would not be able to create them by hand alone (although you may be able to do a few rotations without the tool, but not complete the loc). Over time, multiple washes, and regular maintenance, the interlock pattern matures into a true loc.
Do you know roughly how many inches of hair you had before getting it loced? I cut all my hair off a year ago and I really want to get locs. My plan was to wait for my hair to get to around 10 inches before locking it but I’m getting so impatient especially after watching beautiful videos like yours 😭 I imagine that my length retention would be much greater if I loc my hair now.
I sure do! I had 7-8 inches of hair. Keep in mind that if you wait until your hair is longer, your installation may be more expensive.
@Crista Stylista I’ll definitely keep that in mind. Thank you ❤️
You are just beautiful
Thank you scorpionmayhem!
Can you show how you pinapple your hair next time please
Sure can! Thanks for watching!
