Lessons I've learned from locking hair

5. Before starting your locks, identify how you want your locks to look.

During lock consultations, I always query clients to confirm which lock appearance they want to achieve. In short, different locking techniques yield different locking results. Some clients prefer Sisterlocks. Some clients don't want Sisterlocks, rather they want well groomed locks (I call these locks custom locks). Some clients prefer organic looking locks. (Organic locks have a free-forming appearance.) Remember, you have a choice about your locks' overall appearance. Do your research and decide which option is best for you.
