  • In this video we are reviewing Whoopi Goldberg! Caryn Elaine Johnson (born November 13, 1955), known professionally as Whoopi Goldberg, is an American actress, comedian, author, and television personality. She has been nominated for 13 Emmy Awards and is one of the few entertainers to have won an Emmy Award, a Grammy Award, an Academy Award, and a Tony Award. She is the second black woman to win an Academy Award for acting.
    Whoopi has been a pioneer in wearing dreadlocks in Hollywood. She has featured a great variation of locs ever since The Color Purple, and continues to wear an amazing variation of styles today.
    On TPL Locs (that pineapple life locs) we review dreadlocks from people all over the world. We do videos on loc journey's, dreads in different cultures and reactions to (black) hair in the media.

    Hey!!! This video was on point. You have no idea how great your timing is ... this video was needed, on a personal tip! So many people have called me Whoopi, since growing my locs (they're getting thicker and thicker) and I never quite knew how to feel about it. Now I see it as nothing but a high compliment. Whoopi Goldberg and Tracy Chapman are two of my favorite black women rocking locs. 😍 😍 Thank ypu for your videos. ❤

    Whoopi’s is also a braidloc like Toni Morrison. Again this method is used also for newgrown and one doesnt want to wait for the length to catch up to the longer locs. 1991: Wig. She too is a semi-form. When you dont see her in locs, they are wigs.

    I am soooooo glad you did a closer look at Ms. Whoopi's locs because she always keeps it fresh and different with her own locs. As you may or may not know, Ms. Whoopi was a professional hair stylist by trade before she became the EGOT actor that she has become so she knows how to style and maintain her own hair. I can also imagine that being certified in the haircare industry, as well as becoming the ICON that she is, she is well acquainted and has the access to the latest and greatest in loc techniques, both natural and faux. I was not a fan of faux locs and altering the natural progression of loc growth and maintenance; however, now that I'm on my latest (3rd) set of locks and my views have changed. I've reattached my own locs from (2001) that I preserved and i'm loving the journey thus far. It's been about six weeks. I did my first re-twist and style, which is new for me. I really don't want to re-twist as often as i used to when I had my locs previously. (1997-2001; 2005-2015) I enjoy your channel immensely. Keep providing us with "food for thought" on the Loc Nation!!!

    All of your other videos that you had to remove, were all too much for the world, being that they were all so very, very, very beautiful showing people of color "happy" with their dreadlocks. The world can't stand that kind of energy. This world wants your energy to be always below 10. Smh. You were on to some really cool videos showing our beauty with our natural dreadlocks. You had did a very lovely video showing "thick locs". It's gone too. That was my favorite. Keep up the good work nevertheless..xx
