About this service
Temporary human hair Sisterlocks give you the exact look of permanent Sisterlocks without the long-term commitment. The locs are pre-made from premium human hair and attached to your natural hair, so they can be taken down cleanly whenever you choose.
Because the hair is real human hair, the locs move naturally, can be washed, and can be curled or straightened with moderate heat — something synthetic locs cannot handle.

Frequently asked questions
How long can I keep temporary human hair Sisterlocks?
Most clients wear them for 6 to 10 weeks. With a retouch of the roots they can be worn longer without stressing your natural hair.
Can I wash temporary human hair Sisterlocks?
Yes. Wash gently with a diluted, residue-free shampoo, press out the water with a towel and let them air dry fully to avoid a damp smell.
Are human hair or synthetic temporary locs better?
Human hair looks and moves more naturally, lasts longer and can be reused, but costs more. Synthetic locs are lighter on the budget and come in more colours. Both are protective when installed correctly.

- What are Sisterlocks?
Sisterlocks are very fine locs installed from your own natural hair with a specific tool and grid pattern — no extensions, no wax, and enough versatility to style like loose hair.
- Permanent vs temporary Sisterlocks
Permanent Sisterlocks are your own hair locked for the long term. Temporary Sisterlocks are pre-made locs attached for a few weeks. The right choice depends on commitment, budget and how soon you want length.
- Human hair vs synthetic Sisterlocks
Human hair looks and moves naturally, washes well and can be reused. Synthetic fibre costs less and offers more colours, but cannot take heat and has a shorter life.
