Here's the bottom line when it comes to success or "failure" with any method. Along with the factors that Tangles mentioned ( installation skill and removal) the other deciding factor whether something will damage your hair ( or not) and stay in well is simply YOUR HAIR TYPE. Also consider the oil production of your scalp, conditioners and styling products you use and , believe it or not..the type of water you wash your hair in. ( ALWAYS install a filter that removes chlorine.) I personally wear Hairlocs and proshells, etc with no screw, silicone or other adhesive and they stay in until I take them out- REALLY WELL! My mom (extensionist) doesn't even use the "crimper" on the Hairlocs tool and they stay, stay, stay! My hair is BABY fine too....so I think the porosity of your hair comes into play too as far as the method "taking" to your hair. I have also used shrinkies and they stay in my hair too. In contrast, someone with fine, slippery hair that isn't too overprocessed may have more trouble getting locs, glues, etc to adhere to their hair. Try different methods and you will quickly learn your hair type.
