Services We Offer
Sisterlocks™ Starter Package
Starting at $1000.00 USD
Step into a new chapter of your natural hair journey with a service designed to be as unique and radiant as you are.
The Consultation (1 hour)
Your journey begins with an intimate, thoughtful session where Mel will:
Explore your hair history, concerns, and scalp needs
Share what you can expect from her, and what to expect during your Sisterlocks™ establishment and maintenance journey
Answer all of your questions with care and clarity
After your conversation, Mel will create several sample Sisterlocks™. This allows both of you to see and feel how your hair responds. From there, she determines your ideal sizing and locking pattern based on your texture, curl configuration, and overall condition.
You’ll receive a Starter Kit with bands and Sisterlocks™ shampoo. Mel will guide you through proper shampooing techniques with the bands in place. Over the following weeks, you’ll shampoo weekly and return with your sample locks, which will serve as the guide for your final pattern at establishment.
Your $40 consultation fee is applied to the total package cost.
The Establishment (Typically 10–35 hours)
With patience, artistry, and precision, Mel will create your Sisterlocks™, honoring both your natural beauty and your lifestyle needs.
Establishment sessions typically last between 10–35+ hours, depending on your hair length and density. To ensure your comfort, five wellness breaks are thoughtfully included—bring a book, your crochet needles, or simply relax with your feet up. Don’t forget to bring a meal, snacks, and beverages, though herbal teas and fresh fruit are always provided by Whimsy to enhance your luxurious, personalized experience.
First Retightening (3-5 hours)
About 4–5 weeks later, you’ll return for your first retightening. This ensures your Sisterlocks™ settle in smoothly, remain healthy, and continue to flourish.
This full package includes approximately 30–35+ hours of dedicated artistry.

The Tranquility Corner
Using Botanicals for Cleansing and Conditioning Hair and Calming Scalp
Rosemary: Known for stimulating hair growth, cleaning and protecting the scalp-potentially reducing hair loss by improving scalp circulation.
Green Tea: Contains antioxidants that can improve hair health, potentially reduce hair thinning, and soothe the scalp. It may also help regulate sebum production.
Lemon Balm: A mild astringent that can help combat oiliness and balance the scalp, soothe irritation, and potentially aid in hair growth.
How to use
Preparation: Brew a strong tea using rosemary, green tea, and lemon balm. Let it cool completely.
Application: You can use the cooled tea as a rinse after shampooing or as a pre-shampoo treatment.
Rinsing: Thoroughly rinse the tea from the hair with cool water.
Important considerations
Buildup: While these rinses can help remove some buildup, for persistent buildup, consider clarifying with a baking soda/ACV detox treatment.
Caution with Sensitive Skin: If you have a sensitive scalp or skin condition, consult with a dermatologist before using these rinses.
Frequency: Tea rinses can be done as needed or every every two weeks, depending on your hair needs.
