2nd Installation

Just completed another sistedrlocking weekend. Client number 2 is so sweet. Her hair was so healthy, and her hair color is a naturally rich radiant black. I am sure that as her locks mature I will have lock envy, in fact I have loc envy now.... Take a look!

Pictures Can Say a Thousand Words...

Ist Installation...

This weekend I completed my first sisterlocks installation. All I can say is OMG! It was a lot of hard work, but I am happy with the end results. This was my first baby so I will keep a close eye on the progression. More pics to follow once we do her follow up!
.
I have learned a lot, just by completing my first installation. I am learning which subsections to start with and which ones to end with. And timing is very important! But most of all, I got to EAT something in between, eating gives you ENERGY.

I ordered an anti-fatigue mat, and that should be here next week just in time for the next weeks installation.

Also, my first client was the best, she was a real trooper. I was blessed to have here!

Does Consultations Cost???

Does Consultations costs? Why yes...

I charge a consultation charge of $25.00 for sisterlocks, and any other type of lock for that matter. A very good and thorough consultation should take at least a minimum of an hour. As a consultant/ loctician I should help the client decide what type of locks are good for them or even if locks is a good choice for them based on their habbits, lifestyle, and self image.

The sisterlocks package includes a consultation, locking session and follow up. Some consultants choose to have all three of these combined into one lump sum. I choose to have my clients to pay the consultation up front, and then pay for the locking session. I like to have my consulting fees because what if the client feels as though locks are not what they really need. If I don't have my consulting fees up front then I loose $25.00 for my hour.
