Dreadlock Journey from starter locs to 5 months. My hair is growing fast Social Media Instagram @Jxnvthqn Twitter @_Jondadon Snap @Kruptedxj #dreads #starterlocs #Dreadjourney
Dreadlocks have a spiritual meaning behind it. It teaches you how to have patience with yourself for your hair. The 1st stage which is the beginning/ugly stage of the journey is the best because you can get a chance to experience the growth of your hair. In the 1st stage, we want it to grow quicker so we can have the full format of dreadlocks instead of waiting months ahead for the real results. I find it normal for those who grew dreadlocks for years and decided to get them cut off and regrow them again. Growing dreadlocks will make you get emotionally tired at times whenever you don't feel like getting it done by someone else or dont feel like doing it yourself. You have to maintain dreadlocks like anything else in life which is why i said dreadlocks is a spiritual lesson that comes with patience. Most people cut their dreadlocks off because they are tired of maintaining the locks, they get judge by other people, or they get manipulated/controlled by other people with discrimination of their hair! For example, Job interviews. Your dreadlocks can not predict who you are and what you can or can not do. Hair is hair; dreadlocks is dreadlocks. If you are on the dreadlock journey, go on the dreadlock journey for your own reasoning and purpose! Don't let anyone stop you for doing so because it can help you spiritually so you can teach others how to have patience with their dreadlocks as well. Im on the journey as well. Keep it up. ✊✊✊
❣️😕 If you really need thicker locs then please take this my peace of advice ok. 🔥🤫1.... Please stop retwisting your dread locs every month to avoid soft and tinny dread locs ok Just leave your hair for months to grow on its own even though they are still baby locs. Don't be in a hurry it's a natural processes and it requires patience. 🤔2.... For example ..... when you retwist your hair on 1st January don't retwist it again until January ending then you wash your locs very well then you leave it to dry naturally without using any hair dryer and also don't retwist it but rather leave the hair alone to be doing its thing until February ending before you can wash it again and retwist it on 1st March and then the process continues. That will help your scalp to be free and the hair will swell bigger and thicker and also very strong because they get much time to tangle very well when you wash it and leave for that longer period of time. 🤫3.... Keep your hands off your hair or avoid playing with your baby locs and also keep it out of sight from people because they will discourage you and also please avoid too much of products ok. 🥰4.....But I recommend you to be using ORS Olive Shampoo to wash your hair and also use ORS Lock & Gel Twist to Retwist your hair because it's very watery and it doesn't stay in the locs like other products and also be spraying your hair with Olive Oil ORS Hair Spray every three days or ones in a week which will help your scalp to grow new healthy hair quicker and and healthy and it will fight against dandruffs and hair drying. 5... Don't forget to be wearing mavin or sauce cap to cover your hair anytime that you want to go out or you want to sleep. Wearing that mavin will help the hair to lock the tips of your baby locs very quicker and also it keeps the locs in a smooth shapes and less frizz and dark in colour. 🥰If you need more information or help you can inbox me on IG @Shun Dem All
Jesus love you, he died on the cross for you, accept him as your lord and savior he can change everything. For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life" (Jn 3:16" But you must repent too. From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near. (Matthew 4:17)"
good stuff, keep sharing and people will follow the knowledge! We all gotta start somewhere. Always take pictures though, you will appreciate the stage u labelled ugly and will have then lived how the outlook now for u is off. Embrace it and don't have to share the pics, save them for you, then hit em' with it way into the game. Inspire. Im a fan.
@@DamnJwill Ong before I ain’t have no confidence in my self bro idk why dreads do something to you physically and mentally..and that shit teaches you to be patient
Great vid man! Still growing out the fro but vids like this inspire me to get my locs. Was wondering if you’re going to make a vid talking about your night time routine?
@@DamnJwill I wait for my loctician to wash my hair because they are not fully locked yet and I can’t rock the unraveling look until my next retwist lol. I keep seen people talking about washing their hair in two weeks after starting their locs but I’m having a hard time believing they didn’t need a retwist right after.
@@XmarcX92 yeah I don’t have a loctician in my area so I have to retwist my own :( I just wash like once a week and then clip dry and wrap they got some alright hang time. I also like to do mine in two strand twists sometimes when I retwist
@@cedricjennings2874Retwisting your own hair is actually a plus compared to going to someone to do it, sure it take longer but you save money in the long run. I plan on down my on retwist soon.
"If you wanna get dreads, get dreads" Appreciate that. Just got my hair twisted a week ago. I feel like too many people that already have locs are acting like they need to prevent other people from getting locs too. Or stop me from making some sorta mistakes? Idk. Its a hairstyle. Don't over complicate it. If you want to get them, get them. You're going to look good with them. And you're going to still be you, but maybe even a little better lol
You motivate me a lot, I wish I`ve started sooner with getting dreads. I have just started wih my dreadlock journey and it has been almost 2 weeks since i got my starter locs, this videos motivates me a lot even though I know this journey is going to be tuff, but. i´m just wondering have many times a week or just in general should you moisturizer or oil your scalp especially when you got starter locs?
Mine locked up that fast too...and I started from a fro with no twist or coils. It just started separating on its on. I use a little water in a spray bottle; maybe every other day and some blended oil; maybe twice a week. Not trying to have buildup or lint in my hair. I don’t go around with it covered up all the time and I’m not cutting or laying down edges. We don’t need the products truth be told. I use liquid black soap to wash it and not too often (avg. 1.5 months). I can’t be twisting and bleaching my hair expecting it to stay healthy. 🧚🏽♀️ Done with all that and the creamy crack...
@Kaz ツ had to cut it due to a profession path I wanted to go down but I changed my mind so I have to start back over. In the process of growing it again.
Yuh your locs are gonna look 🔥 by the end of the year that’s 7 months. If you want your locs to grow faster take biotin and oil your scalp every 3 days.
I haven’t cut down on my hair since October and I have noticed from october to December my hair was growing mad quick, then the growth just stopped, if I pull my hair now it will reach my eyebrows, and it’s been a whole 6 months, but I ain’t tripping I’ll give it its time maybe in June I’ll get them twisted.
Wacthing other people grow they dreads really got me hype I know I gotta wait atleast 5 more months hopefully my hair be long enough to start 3-4inches
I wanna get dreads myself. I'm just worried if my hair won't be long enough or when I do get dreads, it will stay short forever. Been left my hair grow for like 3 years or something amd they are like 2-3 inches from scalp to the ends.
I just started yesterday. Btw you did good by starting it with short hair. It takes less time to loc up that way. You might still have coils if u waited
@@DamnJwill here the most popular way to get dreadlocks is the crochet needle method, almost nobody does with other methods, there is nowhere to do finger coils
You can use a lot of locking gels but make sure you look on the back and read the ingredients if it has things you can’t pronounce or don’t know I wouldn’t use it
I wish my locs were as long as yours to be honest
Be patient your locs will get longer
now that its been 6 months how long are they now?
H?
How long are they now?
