A note from Jackline

Hello, my name is Jackline Ochuka, founder of 254 Sisterlocs Divas.

I have over twenty years of experience in natural hair care and styling, and I have dedicated my career to helping women embrace and care for their natural hair with confidence.

Sisterlocks have become more than a profession to me, it's truly my passion. Over the years, I've specialized in sisterlocks and other natural hair techniques. My passion is not only creating beautiful, healthy looks, but also educating my clients on how to maintain their long-term hair growth and health.

Every client is unique, so I take time to understand your hair, your lifestyle, and your goals before recommending the best approach. My commitment is to provide professional, gentle, and high-quality services that leave every client feeling confident and beautiful.

Thank you for considering 254 Sisterlocs Divas. I'm looking forward to being part of your natural hair journey. Thank you.

The salon

A home for sisterlocks, run by someone obsessed with getting them right.

254 Sisterlocs Divas is a Nairobi CBD salon built around one specialty: Sisterlocs. Founder Jackline “Jahkey” Ochuka installs, retightens, colors, styles and trains locs for clients and aspiring locticians who want the neat, tiny, low-maintenance loc look done properly, and who want products formulated for the way Sisterlocs actually behave.

That focus is also why the in-house Tiny Locs haircare line exists: shampoos, scalp oil, essential oils, rosewater and color care built specifically for sisterlocks, tested and sold from the same shelf clients see when they come in for any service.

What clients are saying

“Getting my Sisterlocks done at 254 Sisterlocs Divas was honestly such a great experience. They were patient, professional and made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole process. I was a little nervous about how my hair would turn out, but the final result exceeded my expectations. My locs look so beautiful and neat. I would highly recommend them to anyone starting their Sisterlocks journey.”

Emily M.

“I came to 254 Sisterlocs Divas after having a really bad installation done elsewhere, and I honestly thought I would have to start all over again. They carefully removed the poorly installed locs, assessed my hair, and fixed everything properly. I really appreciated how patient and gentle they were throughout the process. The difference was incredible! My locs now look neat, healthy and properly installed.”

Sarah K.

“I used to dread retightening because it would take forever and I would leave with my scalp so sore from my hair being pulled too tight. My experience here has been completely different. Their retights are quick and efficient because 2 to 3 people work together, and they are very uniform with their technique. I am in and out, and most importantly, I do not leave in pain.”

Michelle A.

“I started using the hair products from 254 Sisterlocs Divas and I have been so impressed with the results. My hair feels healthier, stronger and much more manageable. What I really appreciate is that the products are good quality without being ridiculously expensive. You can tell they are intentional about the products they recommend and sell.”

Questions before your visit

Every loc journey is personal. These answers cover the essentials, and we can talk through the details of your hair directly.

Start with a free consultation
Can I start with a consultation?

Yes. If you are unsure what your hair needs, start with a free consultation. Tell us about your hair, your goals and any concerns, and we will recommend the most suitable next step.

Do you retighten or correct Sisterlocks installed elsewhere?

We can assess existing Sisterlocks, including installations started elsewhere, and advise you on the best way forward. Send us a few details on WhatsApp so we can understand the condition of your locs before your visit.

How are your services customized?

Every client's hair, lifestyle and loc journey are different. Before recommending an approach, we consider your hair's current condition, your goals and the look you want to achieve.

What should I share when requesting an appointment?

Tell us which service you need, when you would prefer to visit and anything important about your hair, for example, how long it has been since your last retightening or the colour or style you have in mind. You may also send recent hair photos on WhatsApp if helpful.

Who is Sisterlocks training intended for?

Training is designed for aspiring locticians and anyone who wants hands-on guidance in careful installation, parting and maintenance techniques. Contact us to discuss your current experience and what you would like to learn.

Which Tiny Locs product is right for my hair?

That depends on what your hair and scalp currently need. The range includes products for regular cleansing, buildup removal, coloured locs, moisture, scalp care and refreshing between wash days. Message us on WhatsApp for a personalized recommendation.

Where is the salon located?

254 Sisterlocs Divas is located at Jubilee Exchange, Mama Ngina Street, 2nd Floor, Room 220, Nairobi CBD.

How much will my appointment cost, and how long will it take?

Because every head of hair is different, service pricing and appointment time are confirmed after we understand your hair, its current condition and the result you want. Contact us for a personalized consultation rather than a fixed package.
