Student love
See how this course transforms your relationship with self-retightening your microlocs or Sisterlocks!
"I love my loctician, but I’ve also always wanted a backup plan and a deeper understanding of my own hair. Ever since my locs were installed, I’ve wanted to learn how to maintain them myself. Between life, work, and having an amazing loctician, that goal just kept sliding to the bottom of my list. I told myself, by 2026, that has to change. I’ve followed @queen.eleem since the beginning of my loc journey. So when she created a Self Retightening Course, I knew that was the blueprint I wanted to learn from. The retightening technique is broken down into bite sized segments I can replay while I practice on small sections. I’m taking it slow, but with every session I feel a little less intimidated and a lot more confident. I’m not trying to replace my loctician. If anything, this is making me a better, more informed client who also has a backup plan when life gets hectic. If you love your loctician but also want the option to understand and maintain your own locs, save this. I’m taking it one section at a time with the Self Retightening Course, and I’m really glad I finally started."

Tell me if this sounds like you
You’re tired
of waiting weeks for an appointment, only to spend hours in a chair while your wallet cries.
You’ve tried to watch YouTube videos
but they either move too fast, lack real detail, or leave you more confused than when you started.
You want to feel confident doing your own reties
but the fear of messing up keeps holding you back.
If any of these sound familiar, you’re in the right place.
Self-Retighten Your Microlocs with Confidence is the shortcut to retightening mastery, giving you the tools, techniques, and confidence you need to take full control of your locs!
It’s not your fault you don’t have this skill yet.
There were 3 things working against you:
You were never taught the right way to do it.
Most locticians don’t want you to learn because they make money keeping you dependent.
There’s too much conflicting information online.
Trying to piece together YouTube videos is overwhelming, and many leave out critical details.
You’ve been afraid of messing up.
And for good reason—one wrong move can lead to knots, breakage, or even lost locs. But don’t worry I’ll show you exactly how to avoid those mistakes! Who am I?
I am Queen Eleem
I believe that microlocs are THE BEST STYLE a black girl with tight hair can ever have! And I believe that if you want to self-retighten your microlocs, WITHOUT MAKING COSTLY MISTAKES, you can! But what makes me so confident?
I self-installed my microlocs
Well, a while ago I researched everything I could about Sisterlocks and how to have a great head of microlocs and SELF-INSTALLED my 668 microlocs all on my own using the interlock method in January 2020.
Self-Retightening since 2020
Since then I have been self-retightening. I even self-retightened through Physician Assistant school and I still regularly self-retighten today!
Imagine how incredible it’s going to feel when…
● You no longer have to depend on anyone else for your hair maintenance. ● You can confidently do your own flawless retie whenever you need it. ● You save money every single month instead of paying sky-high loctician fees. ● You’re not frantically trying to book an appointment before a big event—you can just freshen up your front section on your own time. ● You feel empowered, independent, and unstoppable because you know exactly how to care for your hair for life.
Here’s why this course is different
Unlike other courses that focus on general loc maintenance this course is tailored specifically for those who want to self-retighten their Microlocs or Sisterlocks
Specifically Designed for the Self-Retightener
I know the struggles and unique issues that a self-retightener faces and I teach you how to overcome each obstacle.
A Variety of Visual Learning Aids and Styles
I break down self-retightening using step-by-step demonstrations, diagrams, and close-up video tutorials so you can easily grasp the foundations and build confidence.
Answers to Your Biggest Pain Points
You’ll also learn how to fix common self-retightening mistakes and how to chain link properly —so you never have to rely on a loctician for corrections.

“It was very helpful and I learned something new I didn’t know. I feel confident that I can do my own reties and maintenance on my micro locs and not totally dependent on my loctician."
Self-Retightener
“Watching her hands-on demos made all the difference.”
Self-Retightener
“The microlocks retightening course was exactly what I needed. With limited access to locticians in my area, booking appointments had become both difficult and expensive. While I’ve always loved my microlocks, I was starting to feel uncertain about how I’d retighten them long term. This course changed that completely. Queen Eleem was knowledgeable and truly passionate about empowering others. Her teaching style made the process easy to understand and gave me the confidence to take charge of my own hair care. I now feel fully equipped to retighten my locs with confidence, consistency, and ease. If you’re considering this course—don’t hesitate. It’s an investment in both your skills and your peace of mind.”

“This was such an invaluable course! I was overwhelmed by the prospect of doing my own retightening and afraid of messing up my investment. Now, I feel so much more confident and have a solid foundation to return to whenever I have questions. After more than 20 years of doing my own natural hair, I didn’t want Sisterlocks to make me dependent on a stylist. This course gave me the independence I was looking for.”
