1
Section the hair into four even sections and secure three of the sections with a hair clip. Separating the sections in this manner will ensure that you don't lose your place and each lock is re-tightened.

2
Take one sisterlock and loop it through the locking tool. Hold it out straight and separate 1/4 of the new growth (hair closest to the scalp that is not locked). Pull the locking tool through that section of the hair.

Split another fourth of the new growth and pull the locking tool through that section just as you did the first section. Complete two additional times until all the new growth is twisted from the scalp.
