    Love your video. My son introduced me to your channel. I have been (secretly lol) interested in creating dreadlocks for a long time. And yours was the most entertaining and easy to understand that I have found. And for a 77 yr old grandmother, that means the world to me. Thank you for sharing.

    I am a professional but first I am human and have been pulled towards dreading and growing dreads. Super anxious as I don’t have anyone with experience to dread for me but have faith I will get there as well!
    In the meantime, thank you for all of your informative content and crisp energy! ❤️🌟🙏🏼😉

I was wondering how i go about adding human hair extensions so when my hair shrinks i dont look silly or at least to have it long enough to be able to put it up. Can u please please make a video elaborating on the extensions you recommend for people with short hair :) thank you so much love your channel.

  • @rachelcarrion574
    @rachelcarrion574 7 лет назад +2

    I love your hair and your videos are so helpful, thank you! So how do you sleep with them? I've heard that it's best to tie them up in a silk scarf. My dreads are very new and I've tried this but the scarf always falls off while I'm sleeping, then I wake up with an extra fuzzy head and dreads kinked and sticking out in weird directions.

    @claireclendening2334 7 лет назад +3

    Does anyone know if i can change my hair color after the hair is dreaded? I have purple tips and it really took to my hair so it's taking forever to fade out. I made a few dreads and want to do more because I'm impatient, but will I be able to change the color after dreading? I tend to change color often and don't want to be stuck with purple dreads.

    I can't go over about a week without washing my dreads. I guess it's just the way my scalp is. I've had this set for over a year and it's always been like that. I've tried to get on a schedule where I wash them less but my scalp won't have it...

    I have big respect for you and your expertise. I have admired and wanted dreads for years. However, my hair is baby fine and super thin, this is hereditary and continues to get thinner with age. My mother is in her 70's and I can see her scalp very prominently all over her head. I hope my hair never gets that thin however it is a possibility. My question is: Is it possible that some people just don't have enough hair, for dreads?

    Finally someone i can talk to you about this. I have baby fine hair and im 65 and im tired of my hair constantly falling out. I thought about bix braids but i done have $500 to do that. So dreads are now in my sight to look at. I'd love to have sister locks but don't know if that would be possible with my hair type. I sont want thick locks at all, so im guessing having more smaller locks will cost more, and thats if i can even find someone local that does them. Ive watched videos how to do them, but oy vey i dont think i have that kind of stamina, so id i have to do them myself, should i do underneath first or on top and work in towards the scalp? Hope these arent to many questions from an od lady! Shalom!

      Hi there! Dreads might be a great option for you. Start on the bottom row and get your practice where it’s not as noticeable. You’ll get practice and can slowly work your way up! Make them thin, not too thin, and they will thicken up over time. Take your time doing each one, row by row, and you’ll gain confidence throughout! Don’t over maintain them. You should be just fine! We have a kit with an additional course to help you, if needed. 🫶

    I cannot find very much info about mapping out dreads and sectioning them for THICKNESS
    What is the formula?
    How big will your dreads be per section?
    Ex: 1”x 1”= ? Size dread
    1”x 2” = ? Size dread
    If you check this will you please send out a blip? I know you brushed them out but if you check... please?
