Daniel Hunt Yessuh😂
Yup
I use to make dreads at weekends and then i barber cuted all of my hair now i cant even twist my hair with my hand
Just in time for my dread exam lol
Me too
I passed the exam 🤪 because of him
I love how you broke this all down! Just in case this helps anyone reading through the comments I have straight fine but thick hair and I highly recommend only using rip and twist to start your dreads. I ended up removing my first set because of the crochet method!!! It looks great at first but within two to three months became my biggest regret. The ones that were only rip and twisted annoyed me at first but were doing wonderfully at the 6 month mark. I am going to start another set after my hair grows back a few inches from where I cut it (the crochet method also made it a major headache to remove them). Happy dreading everyone!!!
Just started the twist and rip method. What do I do to them after the fact. Do I rub them everyday or what
@@samcollins4926 “do I rub them everyday” 😭
4c in the house
yesssssir
4c and proud!!!!!
4c gang gang
Ayyyye 4c hair gang let’s gooooo🧑🏾🦱

This dude is sending us back to school😂😂
Hairschoo💀💀💀
This was so far beyond being helpful, I feel like I had someone invested in my hair and knowledge! Thank you brotha, I'll be learning from the tube and my friends since my family hasn't used dreads since they were on the reservations! You da goat for sure
You asked what hair type, I have 3B(defined sharpie diameter curls) that goes almost to 3c when taken care of well and down to 2c if I use bad products and such.
Thanks for this..this is literally the only useful dreadlock video I ever watched..and now I am sure I am on the right track..
Thanks Gunther i’ve been looking for this for a while!
I am 3A and will be starting my loc journey soon. Great video!
Had mine for about 5 years and just now watching this, I definitely have a curly pattern
Great video. Twist and rip done 3 weeks ago and now crochet hooking. Fab methods x
Love the vid man keep up the great work 💯🤞🏽
Free form for 35 years. Never twisted. It's a Blessing!
After watching a lesser channel on locs then coming here right after i notice the difference in video editing. Whoever edits your videos are A1
I have very straight hair and used the crochet hook method. I'm coming up on a year and couldn't be happier with the result.
The only thing that was even slightly an issue was that for the first couple months, they looked unnatural and they were very tight.
After the first few months though I got through the "ugly" phase and now almost a year later I'm so happy with them and would recommend this method for straight hair any day!
Yes i have straight light curl 2c
I back comb ,twist then crocket, i love it 3 yrs now ❤
Pine-Sol commercial made me feel nostalgic and she has locs too ! Good sponsor.
Love you Gunther dude 🖤💯💪
I love your vids. I was thinking about getting dreads like your old ones.
I have 1A hair and did twist’n rip and crocheting for maintenance. They’re five years old and 24 inches long!
I looked at your profile picture and they look amazing
wow u went in bro, overload info! lol luv it thank u
Great video, I've learned alot. 👍🏾
Hey I think you are great! I’m glad I found you. I had dreads in my 20’s, before RUclips. 😂 we did lots of stuff to try and make them happen. Ultimately I bought some beer an had friends over. They helped me section it off and twist/ripped my way into dread-dom. I had to chop them for personal reasons.
I have 4 kids now 20 years later and I’m watching your channel enjoying the great info and positivity!
I may do half dreads? After my kids my hair turned from bone straight to 2C 3A 😂 Plus some grey sparkles!
Anyways, you have a wonderful day!
I've dreadlocked my hair a few times and am trying again, with only two in my hairline, I feel so ready and know exactly how I'm going to start my hair babies! Thank you so much for this easy to follow video and mapping!
Love your videos - I have 2a hair and want dreads... your videos help with tips and expectations
because u have dreads r u white or black i dont mean to be racist but im white and i want dreas as well so wut do u think
@@qmfjb2434 Nah i’m sorry i don’t think it would work but you could always try. Or go to the barbers
@@qmfjb2434 are you 10? 💀
@@mir6709 bruh I was asking a question, that’s wut the comment section is for(r u ten?)
I have a 3b hair type and I used twist and rip and afterwards blunted the ends and brought all the hairs in with a crochet hook
I have my dreadlocks since February and i did them myself by crochet hocking and they broke twice because i messed up but now im happy af
Informative.
Just started mine on straight hair. Twist and rip wasnt really working so I searched it up and found the backcombing method. Its worked really great for me. Just need to practice more with crocheting. I got the frizzies!!!! lol
I have half my head done and I’m getting the rest done tomorrow
How is having dreads so far?
aderall deible it’s really nice bieng able to just get up and get on with day still waiting for the ones nearer to front to lock up properly but it’s rlly good so far
@@Leoar28 good thats awesome! Have fun with them 😁
@@Leoar28 go crazy with them homie 😁
@@Leoar28 how bout now homie
2b I think I have🤔 I started my locks 2,5 week ago. I made a short video on the process for now. I love them and to see what is happening.
I used backcomb and crochet.
thanks for the informative video. don't forget about sister locks.
Backcombing leaves the chat*
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Learning much
Thank you
Who else is watching this with over a year of their dreadlock journey
11 months today
Almost 2 years for me
i

Start mine next week. Straight hair 😎😎
I’ve had 2 sets of locs (full head and high top) and I regret getting rid of them. I’m impatient and waiting to start my loc journey again. Also, I think I’m in the 3B, 3C section
Your the 🐐 thank you for all the good info I watch all your vids and subscribed. I got straight hair my hairs like a 2a and I started my journey about 3 months ago so I have a lot of time before the mature. Can you make a video to help out with Re-twisting roots and just training the roots and how to maintain re growth? Thank you your the best man 🙌🏼
An inspiration
Dude you should be teaching classes for hair. Very informative
Great information...
I have a 2c and I used crochet hooking and it worked just fine
Watching this when I already have dreads
Same
How long have you had them, mine r 2 months old on today
Mine are almost a year
bradly haustman have u ever interlocked?
bradly haustman I’m finna interlock mine and make a vid about it
🔥🔥🔥
I am mixed race White n black, bleased with the 4c hair. Love ur content
Praise God! Yessir great info, thanks and God bless!
My next set of locs will be the comb coils or
free-form method
Simple and easy understand ❤
I’ve been doing twist rip then twist w gel and they’re coming out fire
Love Locs.
I know this video is older. I have a weird combo of hair types, but overall I'd say I'm maybe 2A, and most of my hair has zero texture!! Not owned a brush in over 10 years, and barely need to comb it because it just stays so smooth! It took me over 50 hours (over the course of 2 weeks) to get through all of my hair. I did twist&rip with crochet and interlocking, and I killed my shoulders back-combing too. Each dread took nearly an hour; longer if I had to pause to do anything else. Never been one to wash my hair often, so my scalp is used to me going long period without washing (like you talked about in a different video). I lightly washed and dried my hair in the afternoon and allowed it to dry mostly in the sun. The next morning, almost all of my dreads were half unlocked! Took me another 4 days just to get them retwisted. My husband has been picking at me because I went from doing nearly zero maintenance on my hair to spending all my downtime to maintain dreads lol.
Big tip with your hair fibers spray from the side at a angle
GREAT VIDEO. i was thinking of getting them. my barber was like no. but i was like yeah im getting them. i just took of my braids the other day. so im gonna hit up the girl that is gonna do them.
U might go with the semi-freeform rout
This guy got a math and science to this lol
I started my relaxed with braid loc.method and 7 yrs later they are beautiful
this man has made so many videos of dreadlocks how does he come up with them lol
yo nice video gunther! I have a 3a hair type :D
Theres value in starting from the bottom. Regrow it and let the dreads really come in that line is killing me
Interlocking is good
it legit felt like in this video gunther was a substitute teacher in my class and was just teaching us about hair 😂
Subscribed ✅
This was VERY informative! I appreciate this! I decided to do semi-freeform with 2 strand twists. And this Wednesday I'll be hitting the 2 month mark. If I would have seen this before I started my locs, I MIGHT have done instant locs but I'm doing semi freeform for a reason. There's a reason I need to go through "the journey". :-) Bless up!
On the road to getting dreads, I have an Afro rn and using the sponge wish me luck y’all
Preston Mills how are they lookin now?
How is it going ?
i have straight hair and i did crochet hooking and it did work verry well:)
I have two strand twists but now I'm getting a crochet hook
Need some pics of the types
4c and I'm thinking about the two strand twist method.
I'm getting dreads this week
Imma need that intro song
I just started my first set with 2 strand twists on 3c 4a hair.
If there would ever be a reason for me to cut all my hair off, I'd start my second set free forming. I think there is a big difference in how they develop in long hair vs short hair
Hey! I think from his diagram, I might have 3c or 4a as well. My plan is to freeform. I would like to ask, if you could explain what you meant about locing and long hair. I ask because my hair is probably a few inches past my bra strap. It grew so much not really doing anything to it. What is your opinion about freeforming. With this length? Thank you ❤
Ninti 999 they seem to get much thicker when you start with longer hair most of the time. There is a free former on RUclips who started her first set with longer hair and got really thick locs that time around. The second set she started from a buzz cut and here locs are much thinner, without doing any type of seperation herself
@@louel83 thank you for your insight. I'm really excited to get started.
Ninti 999 The RUclipsrs name is the queen po
Yes! It's exciting! It's a really exciting process. It's not just physical, because you get to learn so much about yourself, because of all the changes you have to go through.
@@louel83 I follow her. Queen Po is awesome!! So inspirational! I agree totally. My decision to loc my hair is a spiritual one.
Where would backcombing fall into this?
I have 1/2A hair and all I keep seeing everywhere is the “backcombing VS twist and rip” battle…
So my hair is straight but I permed it and it’s starting grow back straight. What should I do?
I’m in between 2c and 3a. I envy those who have hair that lock easily.
Addi G I decided to grow out my hair a little longer and revisit the loc process later on.
I don't know what he's talking about my hair lock in 1 day
3c/4a hair great video by the way! I started my journey 10/2/2020 braidlocs and mediumsmall size
I did freeform 3c hair took forever.... Sadly I'm my journey I didn't like them and cut them out and then later appreciated them..... But realized it was me I had to accept
I twisted with gel and I’m 2 months deep😭💯they coming out pretty good
Update ?
Yessss!!! The universe spoke. I know how to get my dreadlocks now. And yes, imma have a great day. ✨🌻
Side-note: My hair type is mostly 4c with bits of 4b.
Twist and rip doesn't JUST work for straight hair. It works for afrocentric and biracial hair as well.
Ima 2A, been freeforming for 5 months now
Bro this man Gunther should Marry Dreadlocs
Brooo I'm in phoenix too
i'm glad my hair type is 3B
Just to add something nobody ever seems to mention: Dread locks are like sponges, if they are soaked, it can take days for them to dry properly, depending on how fat they are.. Ok, maybe not multiple days, but 1
hold up lemme get rid of mah dreads real quick 🏃🏻♂️
How was it 7 Curly methods and 8 Tight Curl methods when it was exactly the same amount.
Hey Gunter, as someone who's about to start locking his hair (white Scottish person btw with type 1 hair) would you be able to go through the "washing process" when you have newly t&w+ch dreads. In your last vid you said "the more you wash the quicker it locks" but how do I wash without my hair opening up and going straight again? Help would be appreciated
You could just section it up and put it in a few buns that way it won't become undone
So wait no coil method? I'm starting my journey and I've been advised to start coils on my 4 inch 4c hair 🧐
I did start my dread by the braidlocks way and it took 2 month to get mature
How do I start my dread locks 🔒 with my 3c hair I have an Afro is very frizzy
And if I can’t have free form what other type of dread can I get
I got liken 4b-4c sponge twist all day
I have curly hair and I want dreadlocks
I have 4b hair and I’m thinking of interlocking the roots of the two strand twist I currently got in but I also plan to pull it out in a couple years. What’s the best method to use so that I’m able to pull it out?
Just keep the 2 strands in and let them lock
Straight hair can use towel method execeap you need not wash hair and let it get nappy
sup man. this video was great.
started my locs in jan w the sponge rub method and they're looking pretty dope.
i've got a question: you mentioned that one could start dreadlocks by braiding the hair and leaving it braided. wouldn't this be an effective method for straight hair as well seeing as the braids loc up and muture naturally over time?
love your content.
stay blessed x
I mean technically, but straight hair is (typically) very elastic so with that in mind it is braided tether but may come out becaue it isnt locked up
