Retightening 2020

Once your Sisterlocks are stable and are no longer slipping, you may wish to take a Retightening Class. This gives you the flexibility to maintain your hair between appointments, or reduce your long-term maintenance costs, or give you a sense of security when you travel. Have your Consultant advise you whether this class would be beneficial to you. (NOTE: we do not consider extensions to be true Sisterlocks.)

Description

Normal Retightening class time is on the first day of the 4-Day class, from 4:30 to 6:30. Times and days may vary because of special events, so please confirm all dates, times and locations on the Training Schedule. Re-confirm all information 1-week prior to class.

BEFORE YOU ENROLL

FOR PRACTICING PURPOSES, PLEASE DO NOT RE-TIGHTEN A SMALL SECTION OF YOUR HAIR IN THE CROWN OR SIDE AREAS FOR 3-4 WEEKS PRIOR TO THIS CLASS. IF YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH NEW GROWTH TO WORK ON YOU WON'T BENEFIT FROM THE CLASS
