"A fixed permanent grid is the worse idea for fine, thin & low density African Textured Strands. Especially that one center parting in the middle of your crown area. Centre partings cause acute scalp trauma, because most time thinning which leads to hair loss, starts in the grown area."
Are you worried about your crown area feeling thin and flat? This post might help you.

MY
THOUGHTS
About Fixed Partings
&
My Work.
I do not like any form of permanent lines because it is unnatural. I do not believe in placing lines permanently along scalp just because you are wearing Locs when you initially had hair growing along those natural lines. Fixed permanent lines is hair loss. Even the one line.
Centre Partings
No permanent parting especially in the middle. This is where hair loss discreetly begins. I've observed how partings gradually widens, exposing more scalp. It's one of the worse practices with Sisterlocks & Microlocs. I refuse to contribute to any form of hair loss in the guise of any fixed parting.
With my practice, it either you commit to the organic nature of how you hair wants to grow or you don't.

Reminder
Over pulling, excessive tugging together with frequent unnecessary retightenings will thin out your strands.
This is more evident with fine low density hair, but long term this will become evident in the most dense hairs. With age, comes naturally thinner strands in comparison to when we were younger.
A fixed grid, in small sections, repetitively exposed through re parting is the quickest root to baldness.

I'm 2018, I created Knotted Locs to combat the pandemic level of Sisterlocks Scalp Trauma, I was being exposed to that wasn't being managed adequately by Sisterlocks, I also felt a resident Trichologist wasn't good enough and does not counteract our current Sisterlocks Hair Loss Problem.
