Can I transition from traditional locks to Sisterlocks?
This is not recommended for many reasons: Here are some of them. The exquisite look of Sisterlocks is due in large part of the way they are started. The hair is sectioned according to pre-set patterns, and then parted into lock sizes that are based on density of the hair growth pattern, and the location of the head (i.e. usually smaller around the face). Parting for most traditional locking methods is not as detailed, and so won’t produce the same results. When you change locking techniques within a single lock, for example going from a twisting method to a Sisterlocks method, you create a venerable area at the transition point.
