Week 1: Sisterlocks Install and progress

So I had my sisterlocks installed and i love them! Im still getting use to the appearance ( they look thin), but playing around with accessories to make them pop. 

Day of install with freshly washed and air dried hair.

 Opted to go in the night before forpre parting  sections and setting up the grid for the front. 

 The front took 13 hours to do.

Back took 7 hours.  

 Ended up with 501 locks. I have a variation of small medium and large in the back. Initially i wanted all small sbd medium but was told that its considered "step sisterlocks" so opted for the traditional parting. My hope is that the front and back grows similarly in size.  I took down my first set due to size inconsistency.  She installed a reverse 4 pattern because it would provide the tightest hold for my lifestyle (very active). Both the reverse 4 and the 3 lasted. But i originally wanted the 3 because I loved the feel of it when i had the medium tester lock placed in my crown, and I read it gives a fuller loc.   

Ill monitor and see how these turnout based on sizing and lock pattern.
