I started mine 2 months ago with comb coils and I'm about to get them retwisted by my mom in a few minutes. She wasn't a fan of me getting dreads at all, but now she's accepting it and I save a bunch of money on retwists.
My hair is like 3inches long, I started with the Twisting and Gel process when it was around 2 inches. Was easy too, and pretty convient, just had Duck Clips on each Dread until my Hair was dry from the Gel, after like 2hrs later when my hair was dry. Just take out the clips and boom you have a starter lock. Didn't was my hair till 2 days later. Nothing special just water and some like massaging, after the wash, put the clips back on one more time so your hair does break up, once they dry once more, taking the clips off gave me nice dreads in the next day when they started to lock on their own after that, I'm niw just gonna let my hair grow and take care of the new growth every 3 months. Main this is be careful how you sleep, I usually sleep with a Beanie on now, keeps your hair from being disturbed during sleep in the beginning stages.
vro im light skinned (middle eastern mixed) and my hair isnt straight, its kinda thick and minimal curly, and it always has a perfect form without me having to do anything but idk what method is the best for me, shall I use twist n rip?
you cant mock someones dreads its nearly impossible cause dreads form in different ways while also your scalp is different to his scalp you produce a different amounts of oil in your hair than he does
Finger Coiling with Cantu leave in Conditioner and Eco gel with Argan Oil. After a couple of weeks your hair will go from being curly to instantly become thick locks😆
I had suspicions that you were Christian by your demeanor, and then I saw that you went to church. Good to see a fellow brother in Christ doing something positive! Bless you bro!
Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck not if he’s going off of the fact that this guy has alluded to himself being a Christian and seems like a good person.. it was a just hunch bro lol.
Twisting with gel does work with curly/ wavy thick Hispanic like hair . i think its the best method even tho they look weird at first they mature and look pretty good
I’m doin braid locks rn shits working incredibly, I have straight hair to and just wanted all of it to just grow and not have to dread em all threw time. I know it won’t completely dread so Ima lock em up completely soon probably after another month. (Btw if you all didn’t know, it takes a month or 2 for your hair to start dreading) I’ve been taking these in and out for 3-4 months now, last time they started dreading and got scared lol but now I’m committed
How did you get through rude comments about starting dreads ? Cause a year ago I grew out my man bun out yo where it was shoulder length , and I dreaded it and I guess I didn’t understand the process it has to go through for it to form into a dread and I would get messed up rude comments from people and co workers . I would get embarrassed as if I done it wrong , but I didn’t do it wrong honestly I did what you explained was crochehooking it and palming it . I shaved my head due to their constant harassment and I had a friend who had dreads for years and told me I was doing it right and why did I shave my head and I felt sooooo dumb afterward 😔 oh well I grew out my hair again and looking forward to doing dreads again. Thank you for this video man I just wanted to know how did you get through the stages of dreading with or without rude comments about it .
Shouldn't let people get to you. People say what they want to say; Its your job to not let those things throw you off your goal(s). I've been twisting my hair for around 1 a month and a half now and even thoug though it looks silly, I still know it'll look good soon. Just a matter of being patient!
if they told you you did it wrong most cases they dont know about dreads at all cause everyone knows if you see hair theat its bunched up but looks bad its the case of have them put in recently and that it takes time to mature and in my image i see dreads something to experience to show the people you put into it cause its a different way and a creative feeling you get when you do new things
People were probably jealous cuz they don’t know how.. your life.. people have no life if they have to always be paying attention to someone else.. do what YOU want and don’t let anyone stop you from getting what u like and want
Richard Da Costa same ik I’m late but I’m 11 and I sponged and twisted it down and I’m constantly twisting the frizz out and I’m gonna lock it but in 2 weeks I’m going to Jamaica and I’ll be in the ocean and the salt will lock it up (I’m a boy btw )
i am very white and i simply started my dreads by using a dry bath towel rubbing circles on my whole head and it worked right away, then 5 minutes a day to maintain is enough! (as seen in Connor Trent vids)
Do a video on backcomb/ palm roll Method. It looks alright, I had that done about a month ago and now it's bit frizzy but still locked. I'm mixed. I also did interlocking. I would like some advice for maintenance/ faster locking. Thank you
Once u got to the twist and rip part I tried it right away and I’m a 14 year old teen I’m trying to get dreads young and that is the best method to use thx for the help Gunther.
I have strait non curly white people hair and I started with doing freeform, and that worked for the most part except on my bangs (not to mention when I started my hair was down to my shoulders) but after about 2 months I decided to to just back comb it and gel it and it worked fine, it definitely does look like caveman hair and most of the dreads are not cylindrical but it works...
I use wax but I wash my whole hair everyday and just retwist it only takes me 30 minutes max to do my whole hair since my hair is nappy and curly it’s very easy
Yo i don’t know what my hair type is but it’s mixed with Afro and like normal curls I am wondering how it would look because I wanna get dreads witch are inernocked I know I spell them it wrong and please answer this comment though I love your vids
I'm about to start this weekend coming up, I recently cut my hair, so it's not that long anymore, but my hair is about 5 inches from the scalp, so I mean I can work with it.
With the freeform one, is there any specific or recommended shampoo I should use? Or can I use regular shampoo? Also will it work with 3b/3c hair? I'm mixed and I have abt a 3c hair type so jw. For anyone that can help me out, thanks.
Too this really helped me out I was quite confused in trying to start dreads my older brother has it but he used a sponge brush and never washed his hair u til it locked but free formed is really helping out for me
Do you recommend freeform for puertorican curly hair?How much time you think it takes?When I wash my hair should I use conditionator or any type of product like gel ?
I love how you talk about God in your videos. It’s so rare nowadays but thanks for those words at the end of your video. Also, I’ve subscribed to ur channel❤️ Awesome content
The way you locked your hair using the crochet method.. how is it done what type of hair texture ..... my hair is kinky wavy...would my hair texture work?
I started mine 2 months ago with comb coils and I'm about to get them retwisted by my mom in a few minutes. She wasn't a fan of me getting dreads at all, but now she's accepting it and I save a bunch of money on retwists.
Young Moptop I’m using a twist up comb to start mine. Did you use the comb every day or did you just eventually just let them lock up

Who else came here after seeing Killmonger's dreadlocks?
I did

I saw his hair and thought it looked really badass. Not sure it would look similar on me because I'm white and have straight, thin hair.
I did
Stefan Winsett I only liked kilmongers dreads when he braided it

Church ≠ True Christian
Just because you are Christian doesn't mean you're a good person that's quite bias.
Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck not if he’s going off of the fact that this guy has alluded to himself being a Christian and seems like a good person.. it was a just hunch bro lol.
Why do have to throw christianity on everything it's so annoying this is RUclips has nothing to with it your annoying
Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck nobody is good
Twisting with gel does work with curly/ wavy thick Hispanic like hair . i think its the best method even tho they look weird at first they mature and look pretty good

I do the back comb on my hair. And at tips I twist and rip and back comb then crochet.then a few days later I palm roll it with the gel.
the twist and rip worked well but i always get loose hair cause i dont wear bands to keep the hair in place
Started mine in September happy with my journey rn
i don't even plan on growing dreads i just wanted to know how people do it
I do the twist and rip. But you can use the crochet hook on the twist and rips to neaten them.
Do a video on backcomb/ palm roll Method. It looks alright, I had that done about a month ago and now it's bit frizzy but still locked. I'm mixed. I also did interlocking. I would like some advice for maintenance/ faster locking. Thank you
Twist and rip worked for me. Thank you for talking about the difference between wax and gel

Freeform Dreads Are The Best!
Free form. Natural the only way
I started braids I had them for 3 months and I didn't like how it looked so I twisted with mango and lime locking gel a week ago
if I do the "twist and rip" how long should my hair be??? [btw I have short straight hair]
Twist and pull worked it took me about 45 min but I got one dread done
2:27 man its crazy seeing Meowjuana again, miss her channel...

Twist and rip method first then crochet it to make the dread look cleaner that’s what I did
You should do a video on back combing since it seems very effective
You can also start them with a wave brush ! That's how I did
I Just made braid and i let it locks naturly and it works

LOCS & DREADS(Dreadlocks) are 2 different things done with different techniques.
I think the finger twisting worked for me & i don't have str8 hair, I'd say i got almost your hair
If you're black and white, which process would you guys recommend ?
The way you locked your hair using the crochet method.. how is it done what type of hair texture ..... my hair is kinky wavy...would my hair texture work?
I shaved my hair cuz I wanted a new start , currently growing it back to get dreads, gonna use the crochet method
