A Little About Sisterlocks

Sisterlocks® is a trademarked locking method that was invented just over 20 years ago by Dr. JoAnne Cornwell that differs significantly from traditional locking methods. Only trained certified Sisterlocks® associates like myself are able to give official Sisterlocks®. Much smaller and lightweight than traditional Locs, Sisterlocks® enable easy manipulation of difficult and intricate styles. Sisterlocks is a process that begins with an initial consultation, followed by an installation or establishment appointment with a certified specialist, and finalized with a retightening appointment. For authentic Sisterlocks® and Brotherlocks®, special tools and methods must be used, so it is important that it performed by an experienced salon with certified locticians.

Purchased this Hydrating lime hair mist for my Locs from Ivy Essence OMG!!!! Now I understand what y’all mean when y’all explain what natural girls hair smell like. Y’all it smell soooooo good. I keep moving my head so I can smell my hair. Great Job Ivy!

-Candace Pinkins

Ivy’s Hydrating Mist is moisturizing and a lighter fragrance. I loved it! I get tired of some products that have heavier scents, it’s too much. Great product, I will definitely be shopping again!

-Jasmine

I had my locs installed 5/25/18. I must say I was nervous about this transition. But Ivy is very professional. And made me feel comfortable with my decision. She answered all my questions. I have gotten many compliments on my hair and I would recommend her to anyone looking for locs. She is great!!

Both I and my daughter started our sisterlocks journey with Ivy within the past five months. Her work is very precise, installations are fast, and she takes great pride in ensuring the best care for our hair. I am LOVING my locs, and I am grateful that I came across Ivy as the right consultant for both of us. Best decision ever!

- Angela Buffington Perkins

I started my sisterlocks journey with Ivy on March 21st. I must say since my consultation in February, I have felt confident that this journey will be one to remember.

Ivy completed my installation in one day which was impressive. She was soooo polite, professional, and ensured I understood what I will need to do. I appreciate the hard work Ivy does and have been telling everyone who asks to check her out. I'm super excited about this journey and can't wait to see it its progress.
