got an apple watch from my daughter for me to try before I buy and she cannot unlock it so I can add to my phone. If I get her apple ID and password can I unlock the watch? Will this cause any problems with the new watch that she just got?

She need to do this before you can pair Watch with your iPhone.

Read here for instructions => Sell, give away, or protect a lost Apple Watch - Apple Support

FYI: You can pair many Watches to one iPhone but not 1 Watch to 2 iPhones.
