Dreads on straight hair is beautiful too! They literally look dope on any hair texture. I don’t get the hate and this is coming from a black girl with dreds aka “locs”. They belong to anyone who can do them, period!
I think wt people mix is the way they act after like a stereotypical type way like be extra like example im in the Caribbean in Trinidad and i saw a asian dude who twisted it to make it nappy and the next day he got the shiz beaten out of him cuz he said nigga 😭 that was the extra part people don't like.
Thank you lovely I appreciate your support 🙏🏼 Love and light to you 🌞
Fr. And ppl dunno dat they originated in INDIA
Yes I belive they belong to anybody black people color their hair blonde should we say stuff about that absolutely not its all in our attitude and acceptance
I don't see any hate from black ppl, did comments get deleted?
"If they don't agree, you shouldn't be there" -- Yes.
whos they??
@@makaylacrudup8690 She was probably referring to the people who wouldn't agree with her dreads, which I agree in her case, fuck 'em.
For Sure!!! 🙌🏼🥰
Haha yess exactly 🤣🙈
Coach D it’s wild how just a hair style can trigger people’s judgement, you’d think they’d send their time more wisely 😅
Dude never have I ever seen dreads look this well in the first stages!
Aww thanks my sis is a genius with the locs 🤌🏼✨
It's so cool how you can establish your locs or the look of locs so quickly with straight hair. Nice. 💖
Thanks lovely!! 🥰 also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
Life of Lauren 😊
Congrats on your dreads I'm African American and I have faux locs that I just love your dreads are beautiful
Ahh thank you so much Lois I appreciate your kind words 🥰 also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
I’ve wanted dreadlocks for years but haven’t found someone to do it, where is your sister based? Yours look so good! ❤️
Kitty Moon thanks so much ❤️ she is south uk based you can check her out on Facebook and Instagram in my bio 🤗
You can find locticians all over. I make them in Utah.
i did mine with twist and rip method, it's easy and fun to do it, try it ^^ but do a good section, dividing the hair and build a sold base next to your scalp
Thanks Krystal 🥰❤️
Kitty Moon if you check out @hippy_hair_dreadlocks on Instagram, she keeps a list of prestigious locticians world wide 🥰 there’s also plenty of ways to get dreadlocks, easiest is to literally just not brush you hair. Over time the hair will knot up and after a while longer they’ll form dreads, this method is known as freeforming! There’s the option of synthetic braid in locs as well if you’re wanting to experiment with different colors, length and thicknesses, they aren’t permanent and can be worn for 3-5 weeks at a time before removing, but you can just braid them right back in again. (I make sets of those so I’ve done an embarrassing amount of research 😅) if you like you can email me literally any question at all about dreads and I can help you out at asiagthomas99@gmail.com ❤️❤️
Your sister did an excellent job. Your dreadlocks are beautiful. She has talented hands and a money maker. You are blessed to have a sister like her. Gods blessings to you both. Can’t wait to see your next video.
Ahh thank you so much myself and my sister appreciate your beautiful kind words ❤️ love and light to you and a Happy New Year to you also, I hope you receive all the you desire in 2020 ✨
Idk I would have windowed them instead of stacking them on top of each other but that’s just my preference
What does that mean please
@@tgoddard307 I think it means stacking the sections like bricks rather than in straight rows going back down the scalp?
@@marzipanmango yup!
@@marzipanmango got it thankyou
sophie wilde It won’t look that way if she just continues to wash and go No maintenance No twisting no upkeep Just wash and gently separate The will look nice and full and healthy
Love the music you chose for your video! Both of you look beautiful with your dreads!
Thank you so much lovely!! 🥰🙏🏼✨
Aaaaw I adore ur staffies so adorable. I defo wanna do dreds I am 48 been told I will look dumb n trampy having dreds at my age so it's made me more determind to do it. Thanks u beautiful girls for inspiring more to do it. Xxxxxx
Ahhh my sisters doggies are the cutest right! and also in regards to your age and what people say about it... screw them! if you want to express your style through your hair... you do that, be your true self and don't let society try condition you into what we are "supposed' to look like! they are just scared to do it themselves ☺️ my aunty got her dreads done my my sister months ago and she's in her late 40s and she looks like a badass 🤘🏼❤️ also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
You have lovely hair, so I knew your dreads were gonna turn out good. Your sister did a good job.
I also saw your most recent vid when you was (unless you're still there) in Australia, and I'm fascinated on how they turned out.
Thank you so much and also i appreciate you watching my videos 🥰 yeah they shrank so much in the year that i had them but I've added extensions to the ends now so my hairs superrr long now 😉
Love the video r. Y'all are very beautiful by the way. I'm going to start dreads, Can't wait to do them and start letting them get older and older
thank you so much for the support! 🙏🏼 enjoy your journey ✨🤍
It looks great. We'd be happy to recommend you. We used to be based in brighton but moved north.
Thank you that's so nice of you to offer 🙏🏼
Beautiful, she did a great job.
Thank you so much 🤍🌞
They look really well done
Thank you lovely!! 🥰🙏🏼❤️
I love this.... ill admit i was curious. But ur hair is beautiful
Ahh bless you, thank you so much lovely your words are so kind 🙏🏼 also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
This is so cool Lauren!!! I've always wanted to try faux dreadlocks on my curly hair! Thank you.
Thank you so much!! awh you should go for it they look super cool!! x
Bradley Barbara Those are real dreads, they're just not "natural" or "free form". Faux dreads are meant to be washed or combed out easily. These dreads would take hours and hours to be combed out.
They look amazing! I’m waiting for my extensions to arrive & dreading my own hair now. I’ve wanted them for years!
Thank you lovely 🙏🏼 i hope your dreading went well and your loving your new look ✨
Awwwww! The puppers are so precious bless them! 😍😍😍😍😍😍💕💕💕 I adore staffies, they're the most loving affectionate loyal wee babies, you've got a best friend for life when you get a staff 💓💓
P.s your locs look amazing! Sis got talent! 🙌 You should do an update if you still have them, would love to see the progress and how they've matured 💖
Ahh thank you so much!! there is a one month, 3 month and one year update on you channel of my dreadlocks if you want to go check that out. I've made a playlist specifically for dreadlocks so you don't have to go searching for them ✌🏼 Thank you for your support 🌞
How many minutes does it take you to make the half way
Your sister is absolutely Gorgeous, I’m growing my hair just in the hope that she will dread it for me 😍
Yesss this is amazing!! thank you she will be super grateful 🙏🏼
I love watching people get new dreadlocks done . 😂 just something about them being so tidy and new looking is satisfying . Also where did you get your shirt at 11:00 ? And the other one at 14:00 ? I love them ! ☺️
Thanks for watching lovely!!, so the first shirt i actually found in a charity shop and its a mens shirt! and the second one i wont from a store called 'the hippie clothing store' (i think) google it and you will probably find it! ☺️✨ also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
Life of Lauren thank you !! Happy new year to you too . I wish you good luck with the new year . ☺️
Omg they are such good dreads with you can do mine. I’m in love with them
Thank you so much 🤍✨
Awesome dreadlocks, it looks great on your!
It looks so beautiful on you!
Thank you so much 🤍🙏🏼✨
they look so coooool
thanks lovely!! 🙏🏼🥰❤️
Love em, Beautiful, I just turned 60, don't know about having them now.
Thank you lovely!! and i say GO FOR IT! they work for any age ✌🏼🌞
did you ever do it
Never had em
I'm getting my dreads tomorrow
i hope your enjoying your dread journey so far 🥰🙏🏼
Lol I love the music 💃🏽💃🏽
I have to admit, I would change it now if I redid the video but it is super bouncy and fun haha!
@Life of Lauren
Your dreads are amazing! How many dreadlocks. Do you have in each row, from the bottom of your neck to the top of your head? I am planning on getting dreads done and I think the amount you have are perfect.
Hey Lovely!! thank you so much 🙏🏼 i have 52 dreadlocks altogether ✌🏼😁
wow great job!!! marvelous darling
Thank you so much 🙏🏼🌞
Super transformation !
Thank you ✌🏼🌞
Wow your sister did such a good job.
thank you so much 🤍✨
I am curious because my hair gets unwanted smells if I don't wash it for every 2 days.. How you guys keep the scalp feel refresh?
Mmm this may be because the hair could still be damp in the centre of the dread which can cause mould to grow which in turn can let off a smell, maybe do a really deep apple cider vinegar cleanse one day over a inflatable head bath and get someone to help you. and once you've done a few rinses wash it and then try not wash it for about two weeks to test out the smell. I hope this helps 🙏🏼🤍✨
hey im the 200th subscriber..
oh yeah yeah..
hell yeah baby!!!!! 🤘🏼😆
amazing job! do you have a video on how to actually do these kinds of locks? what tool do i use and how do i do it? any tips and suggestions?! PLEASE!!! i really would love some locks. and are these permanent or can you brush them out if you dont want them anymore?
either, both, if you have the patience
Thank you!! i will either do a video on it or i will get my sister in another video with me of her explaining it which would actually be fun!, wont be for a little while though as i'm still not back in the uk but ill defiantly add it to my list of videos ☺️🙏🏼
This is like my dream hair. I wish I had somebody to do them for me though haha
Aww thank you you can have dread like this!! 🤍✨
You will lose length in hair when your hair starts to tighten up
i can officially say yes, haha but everyone is so different! i lost so much length by the end of the year having them which you'll see in my videos but I've just added more extensions to the end so my hairs down to my butt now 🤣
How did you get them to go from bushy to tight? love them!!
Thank you lovely, just keep doing maintanance until your satisfied 🌞
Did you make your extensions? If so, what did you use?
Or did you buy them, and if so, from where? Thanks!! Looks great ;)
Yes my sister done the extensions, she dreaded the loose real hair extensions into dreads ✌🏼✨
Hi,
My hair is around the same length as yours but thinner/finer. I've ordered pencil width SE dreads to install myself.. Do you think 40 will be enough? I do want my head to look quite "full".. x
i am sure 40 will be plenty, just means your sections will be bigger but i guess if not you could keep the top part of your hair normal so you hot that half hair half dread look ☺️ how did it look in the end? ✨🤍
I have very long hair and was considering getting dreads but I don't want to lose my length
So the best solution for you my love would to get extensions added to the ends of your hair like I did, then you can choose if you want to make it even longer than your natural hair if you wanted to or shorter ☺️
This was so awesome...
Aww thank you so much love 🥹✨🤍
Did she do the rip and pull before she back combed? Or only backcomb and crochet?
Just backcomb and crochet lovely ☺️
I have straight hair and I got sick the other week so I stopped brushing my hair and I had a massive dread on the back of my head, took me forever to get rid of it. It just happens naturally to straight hair unfortunately in a very unflattering manor. 😂😅 It is alot easier to achieve than people think.
Haha this is very true!! i dont have dreads anymore and honestly the knots i get in the back on my head is outrageous especially when i am wearing a scarf, im forever finger picking knots out 😂🤦🏻♀️
Nossa ficou maravilhosa !! 😍
🙏🏼🤍
Is your hair thin? Your dreads look similar to mine when I first did them.
My hair was in-between thin and medium thick if that makes sense haha!
@@LaurenFleck haha like the individual hairs are thin but you have alot of hair 💁♀️
@@-e..m..i..l..y- her hair is thin .... plus she doesnt have alot of hair. I'm not sure what you're seeing
If I lived in the UK I would totally go to your sister. We don’t have loctitions where I live. I am hoping to be the one that changes that😉I have been working on this. Learning the craft and deciding when I will eventually put mine back in. I may put fakes in for awhile. I have reasons why I am not ready to commit again just yet but it won’t always be this way.
Ahh brilliant, 100% start a dreadlock business, especially if no one in your area does them it would be a great thing to bring to your community ✌🏼🌞
Life of Lauren I have really been thinking about that
Beautiful!!
Awhh thank you 🥹🫶🏼
Its looks amazing. How many minutes will it take to make one dreadlocks?
Thank you so much 🤍 we didn't time it but it depends on the length hair, type of hair you have and how experienced the locticion is ✌🏼🌝
i can remember that like it was yesterday
and tiggy at the end awww
little tiggs 🤍
these are done so well, i'm surprised how locked they look, stunning. your hair is so thick, you're gonna have a mane a few years down the line when these proprly settle in.
thank you so much ☺️ yess they have got thicker now a year later, they shrank a lot as well!
Beautiful!🥰😍
Thank you!! 🙏🏼🌞🤍
I'm glad to see that this lifestyle is spreading so lovingly but could you please stop calling them dreadlocks. Please look up the word "dread" and determine whether or not you want that to be associated with your hair. We call them Locs because there is nothing dreadful about them...
Dread and dreadlock are 2 completely different words and meanings! The first is the obvious,the 2nd means being natural,social,spiritual and strong ( having no fear) many countries,cultures and religions,celts,vikings etc are all documented as far back as 230 BCA earliest being India,and the most Modern 1930’s is the Rastafarian’s..documented as spiritual,non violent,non fearing ,social gathering culture!!.....locs is actually the term of how a dreadlock is formed! By using a comb and hook ( locking ie,so it doesn’t loosen)...
sophie wilde thank you,and be fair did have big bears too! Lol..🕵🏽
@sophie wilde Blacks straighten and color their hair due to the standard being straight caucasian hair. Society saw and still sees natural black hair as unkempt and unprofessional in its natural state. The example you gave isn't even remotely the same. Smh Where i live a young black boy was expelled from his elementary school because he wore his hair in its natural state. It was far from unkempt This is this year that this is happening. Please don't use the example of black people trying to appropriate a culture they were forced into and are now brainwashed into maintaining to fit in. Smh
Lady Delane thank you for saying that so I didn’t have to
It's just a word....I call them dreadlocks but I see nothing dreadful with them.
I need to learn how to crochet my dreads so bad!!!! Any tips ? Thank you
hopefully you found it already but i have a video all about how to do maintenance on your own head, here's the link if you still need it 3 years later haha - ruclips.net/video/NkNabeoR0Ok/видео.htmlsi=v8EWReAiT1aQZcH- 🤍🙏🏼
you look beautiful!
Ahh thank you Gracie thats so beautiful for you to say 🥰 i appreciate you! also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
Your dogs are soooo beautiful
aren't they just 🥰 tigger and lunar are their names they are my sisters doggos ❤️
i'm curious if the ends are done or do they need more twisting? This is literally my first video on dreads. Look good though.
thanks lovely, so we went for the loose end look ☺️✨
Do the dreads get thicker/bigger over time per each dread or if i want a bigger dread should i use more hair? thanks!
they do get a little thicker, but if you want really thick ones you should make bigger sections
yeah they defiantly get thicker but it does also depend on the person and what your doing and so on, mine got thicker because i swam in the sea a lot but just be carful on how big you make them at the start because in the long run when they thicken it makes it more difficult to wash and also dry 🙏🏼🥰
Wait so she did the dreads and then added extensions?
yeah, so she bought real hair extensions and pre dreaded them before she added them to my dreaded hair ☺️
my family says I'm ugly because I have dreadlocks lol you're lucky you have a sister who loves dreads like you do 😅
oh my goodness nooo, you are beautiful and keep doing you and expressing yourself ✌🏼 love and light to you 🤍✨
They look so good!!!
Thanks lovely!! 🥰🙏🏼
Nice vid and you two are beautiful. Much love. Ayt! From: dreadlocks artist in philippines
Thank you so much and for your support ✌🏼🌞
looks great🔥
Dreaded FLOW thank you so much ❤️
I actually wow when you’re finally done loool
Haha thank you ☺️🤍
I'm 53, female and instead of turning gray my hair has turned white platinum, weird I know. I've had Dreadlocks over the years from working in the woods and either getting tree sap in my hair or just not brushing it but they were very different sizes shapes etc. Now I'm looking for a stylist to do what you guys have done here but it's a lot more difficult than I thought it'd be. I've got many different cultures in my blood from Native American, Czechoslovakian, and a very strong possibility of African American due to my mothers ancestors coming over in the 1700s and family rumors. It's really awesome to see these extraordinarily BEAUTIFUL African American women going natural and I hope we can all share our cultures (and hairstyles) peacefully. I only want my getting Dreadlocks to be seen for what it is, a huge compliment to a beautiful way to wear hair. Thanks for the video, maybe do some Dreadlocks on older people too for us to see.
Aww this was so beautiful to read and i love the many cultures that run though your line, you must be incredibly beautiful 🤍 did you go for locs in the end? ✨
I’m going with a more freeform look. Only thing I’m doing to speed to process is the occasional towel rub every few days. Good video tho!
Thank you! I love the freeform look! you must have so much patience though so hats off to you ✌🏼😁
Love it
Thank you 🤍
How do you get the locks close to the scalp?
Twist n rip
She would back comb the hair, pinch it with her fingers and start basically sewing it with the crochet needle, she didn't use twist and rip in my hair 🙏🏼✨
But arn’t dreadlocks really dirty tho and is it true you can’t wash your hair?
No haha thats not true, some people choose to not wash them but i would say 95.5% of the dreadlock community wash their hair and have clean dreads ✌🏼
how can I please find the music you used? :) its soo magickal!
All the music i used was from Epidemic sound lovely, im glad you like it because i always take a lot of time finding the right tracks ☺️✨🤍
Oh Im so in love with you..do you like like Woman? I do...lol Your so cute love the way you move your hands and you look sooo Beautiful! Amazing! Ruff Riding in The States!🇵🇷💪🏽😋
Thats so lovely for you to say, so thank you very much!! I am straight but i appreciate you being so forward 😆❤️ thanks for watching, also Happy New Year to you, may it bring you all that you desire ✨
Ruff Rider You just came across so fucking creepy!! Don’t give us lesbians a bad name! You are the reason why some straight people are afraid of us!! Unless you know for a fact that a woman is at least bisexual then don’t hit on them! If it’s a straight woman that is looking to explore their sexuality then they have to make the first move. Thems the rules!!
Super nice. Do you still have them
Thank you 🥹 i dont! i took them out a few years ago now! ✨
What is the music used in this please?
This was literally from the iMovie free playlist ✌🏼
You look absolutely gorgeous with dreads ^w^
Thank you so much lovely thats so sweet to say 🥰🙏🏼 and a Happy New Year to you also I hope you receive all you desire in 2020 ✨
The dog is cute
super cute 🐶
I don't understand the whole dreadlock hair, it's just not my thing, but I'm glad you like them, and that's all that matters.
Thanks for expressing your opinion honestly 😊
how many dreads she has?
i have 52 ☺️
All of my want 😭
🤍🤍
I either wanna get my cornrows back or dreadlocks
dont please
@@makaylacrudup8690 don't what?
@@emilybrisco7096 im sorry buti just dont like it when non black people wear cornrows or box braids,dreadlocks are fine cause they are from many other cultures but i feel like all of a sudden non black people wanna get our hairstyles cause its a ''trend'' when black people who wear them get fired and bullied because of it
@@makaylacrudup8690 I'm not trying to wear it because of a trend it kinda boost up my confidence cause I have none at all but I understand where your coming from like a lot of people do do that
@@emilybrisco7096 yeah me too,i hate when they're disrespectful about it but i still dont like when non black people participate in parts of our culture but they dont get to experience the bad parts

no offense, but i don’t like dreads. i’ve never had them, so i don’t know much, but when i think of dreadlocks i feel like theyre messy, if that makes sense. your dead hair gets stuck in them and they look tangled.
Aya ummm not to cause any offense but that’s the point of dreads😂 but they don’t have to look messy
Serenity mob ik but why get them lol she looks much prettier without them and dreads make a person look like they’re dirty and a drug dealer lolll
I appreciate your honesty and opinion Aya
also LOL about a drug dealer 🤣 haha thanks 😆🙈
Life of Lauren honestly you’re a beautiful girl with a beautiful personality but i just don’t like dreads. i’m not telling you to take them off lol but i just said in my opinion
Does this damage your hair
no you just knot it
No, if you get it done by someone experienced ✌🏼
Life of Lauren still appropriation but I know you probably don’t care ✌🏽
Please explain. Every indigenous culture has had Dreadlocks from Native American to Scotland and everywhere in between. What is it that bothers you so much? What about people with curly hair straightening it or dying different colors etc? Appropriation is taking something that belongs to someone else without permission and hairstyles ain't that.
@@Bettinasisrg what we’re not gonna do is over look the fact that white supremacy ideals are the literal framework of western civilization. As Black women, we assimilated so you know....we wouldn’t die. We get ridiculed for actually loving our hair and culture....but when other races do it it’s a trendy cool style. The solution: acknowledge the truth and do whatever the fuck you wanna do. But does it really make you happy or do you just wanna be as cool as us ? ✨💙 Gn

AAAAA I WANT DREADS SO BAD BUT NOBODY IS SUPORTING MEEEE
Do it!!!
Why do you need someone to support you? Don't be silly - if you want dreads then get them done, you're not a child are you? If you like them, away you go and do it. Stop relying on others to validate your creativity or opinions, I expect to see that you are going to get it done - you only need yourself to do it and a person to do it....let us know when you plan to go ahead and do it!!
You don't need support. You are your own person. If you want dreads, do it. Woman up, dude.
You don't need support to do something you love
Fuck the support from others! Do what you want, when you want! You’re the only true support you’ll have through out your life, from birth to death you’ll have yourself💜
Dreadlocks are very unhealthy
Think before you get them and if you are going to get dreadlocks have somebody with experience do it for you so you don’t damage your hair ( well you will tho...)
Thank you for sharing ✌🏼🌞
