His dreads looking better and better everytime, definition of trusting the process
ngl, this isn't "trusting the process" because the locs that he just instantly locked were going to lock up eventually. He just manipulates his hair too much for it to make progress
@@tbbjae this is the biggest facts ive ever heard, i wish i was told this when i was starting mine. the frail dread that he crochet hooked would have eventually locked and naturally fell over time if he had did nothing but cleaned and washed his hair for a month or two. his hair overall would be thicker and healthier had he not constantly retwisted it and manipulated it
@@tbbjae granted this video he literally crocheted it. But with the whole manipulation thing, his channel is based literally on teaching people how to get dreads and deal with the issues caused with it. Not everyone faces the same issues but if he wants to cater to everyone he will have to mess about with his hair a bit.
This time wasn’t exactly to teach or help anyone, it’s like he said, because the other locs have matured more quickly than the 3 he crocheted. Because he has sectioned it already, it would be very difficult to leave them 3 to lock up because of their tendency to join and form thicker locs as well as them losing the tighter natural curl pattern he had.
I’m not justifying as such using the crotchet hook but I’m saying in essence he gets criticised too much for it. Using a crochet hook is made to be some terrible method but he should feel free to do what he wants with his hair. All the other locs are shaping up fine as well so I don’t see the problem. He has trusted the process imo.
If he trusted the process, he wouldn't be manipulating

GREATLOCS TOO GOATED 🐐
It’s crazy I was watching your videos religiously back in 2015 -2016 when I started my locs cut them 2019 now 2024 restarting my journey and your videos first to pop up yessir 😂🤝🙏
Thanks man I didn't really need this but it helps.🔥
Thank you so much. This answered all my major problems!!
Good video
Use to watch your vids 4 years back before I started my locs lit to see that you restarted your journey 💯
this helped alot thanks i really appreciate it ❤❤❤❤
This was a big game changer for me!!! Now I can do me and my sons hair great tutorial!!!!
Thank you i needed this🙌
thanks, i aint even watched yet but know i will use this in the next few weeks lol
WHATS THE MUSIC AT 1:55 that’s SO 🔥 AND CALMING
VERY VERY VERY HELPFUL!
Your hair grows so fast
Needed this vid...on my 10 month taper cut dreads
Thank you I got five that don’t want to stay because of my texture
I crocheted all my dreads
1:20 hopes *desperately he doesnt whip out a crochet hoot*
Thanks✌🏾👍🏾💯
nice video
Do a video on sahbabii plzzz I want my hair like his
ong
When do you restock on locking gel Gunther?
Yo its great
Bro last time I used a crochet needle it pulled alot of my hair out... I noticed when I took them out I guess it wouldn't matter if I keep them in :// ohhh I was pulling out to hard I see what I did wrong thanks Gunther
i want to just let my dreads do their thing will i eventually have to crotchet hook them?
no,they will eventually lock on themselves
Based on your profile pic u should have no probs since i had none with less coarse hair
no, use the crotchet hook as an absolute last resort, eventually it will lock and do it's thing if u give it enough time
I could prolly just let em lock up. I’ve washed mine and everything and I’ve only had them for a month. I experimented with a crochet hook on some of them too, and neither of them unravel. I also have the same hair type as you (I started with two strand twists FYI)
@@theanxoiushero800 bet i’m doing mine with finger coils so they’re a lil looser
Ayo you been doin them push-ups 😳
Hell nahhhhhh😂😂😂
If I use the dread sponge on my 4b-4c hair type how long would it take to lock up?
Not long.around 3months you should see results
@@locsman And how often do I wash my hair of the beginning stage.Because right now I was my hair every week
@@jasonstorm100 In the early stage i washed and sponged every 2 weeks . Good natural shampoo is essential.aloe leaf treatment once a month makes it loc fast.👍🏿
Bro, I have one dread in my head that is unraveling due to sweat and it pisses me off because if I don’t go to gym, I get an F for that. And you know I’m about all A’s I’m a scholar.
I’m waiting for a video review on Soulja boys dreads
I think you mentioned it for a quick sec in one of your other vids...but hightop vs full head? Now that you kinda have experience with both
hightop
Mannnn! I’ve had a full head for about 6months and thinking about chopping the sides off. Want me a lil longer so I don’t have that short bowl cut look tho lol
@@mattsson-o6n hightop weak
You should do reaction videos on tiktok to dreads
Do spinabenz dreads plzzzzzz
Do you use gel when doing this method?
lmfao this guy
In the video I believe you used a larger tool than the one shown on the site, are those still available for the bundle?
Can you do a loc count?
What Does The Salt Water Actually Do?
Any tips to keep maintained? @guntherdagreat
Everyone new to lock or already had locks let it do its thing it will get messy but it won’t unravel as long as you don’t wash it this video could have been 2minutes long
LOL I needed it. This is for the 3a-3c crowd and mine are doing everything he spoke about and it’s driving me crazy so I’m thankful.
One of mine in the back jus unraveled
But i keep getting dandruff and my skull itch if i dont wash it and when i wash it the unreval more and more
My dreads literally look like his I’ve had them in for 9 month tho and I dyed them purple
Que hay bro soy de México
Hace una semana me realize rastas, pero mi cabello es lacio y mi punto de vista es el siguiente
Mis rastas son un poco gruesas por que mi cabello es lacio y el problema es que si yo las hubiera hecho delgadas se hubieran deshecho
Que producto me recomiendas para que mis rastas no se deshagan al ducharse
No hay producto como tal que ayude a que no se deshagan, todo depende el mantenimiento que le des a tus locs como tal y como lo hagas
Por ejemplo si llevas una semana con los locs es recomendable que no te laves el cabello por lo menos en tres semanas a un mes para que así puedan madurar los más que puedan después de ahí te puedes lavar el cabello una vez cada dos semanas, y cada tres meses te puedes hacer un retwist que viene siendo darle la vuelta a la raíz del cabello nuevo que sale 🤷🏽♂️ al final todo se trata del mantenimiento que le des.
Pero si quieres buenos productos te recomiendo el:
Dr. Brooner peppermint shampoo para el lavado
y el aceite tropic isle living Jamaican black castor OJO!! Solo usa un poco por que este aceite es muy denso
Love your videos! I'm Puerto Rican and I want to buy real hair dreadlocks extensions but don't don't know where. Any advice? I'm from Jersey city NJ
I'll sell you some. I cut my dreads regularly.
@@rayray9514 I'm very much interested. How much you change?
Why do u wanna buy real hair? Can’t you do dreadlocks on yours?
@@lilmanq7746 absolutely I could. I just want to add a few inches to my hair.
This for works for wicks too minus the interlocking ?
Yup
How can I contact someone about my online order?
I had a question? When I get double strand retwist loc am I still able to wash it while I still have the retwist in? Because my head do get flaky and itchy due to the build and stuff so I need to know if it’s possible to wash it while I have retwist ?
Same Breh idk how long I should wait before I start washing my hair. Bc I feel disgusted lol my hair itchy n shi
@@Abdi_World exactly bruh 😭 we need answers😅
@@thatboyfritz I was looking it up n shi i read an article saying “you shouldn’t wash your hair until they start locking up” to lock up it’s takes ab 1-3 months depending on your hair types. But I cannot wait 1-3 months lol that’s too long not washing my hair
@@Abdi_World nah my hair already locd well it’s not all the way locd I’m in the budging state but I’ve been getting a retwist for every 3-4 month but I never wash it while I have the retwist in because I’m scared it might mess up the retwist but it be to much build up and it be soooo itchy 😭
@@Abdi_World if your just getting into your journey when I first started I use like a wave cap to put on my head and wash it but it’s still covering your head but your still able to wash it
Some of my dreadlocks come back to normal
Dam ur hairline said I'm out
my plug use them same bags lmaoooo
Using the crochet... Isn't that cheating if you're freeforming? 🤔
Yes...yes it is
He’s not freeforming dumb kid
@@pxnmalsg watch the vid a again... And be civil
I have a question… our hair is about the same length but my hair shrinks all the way up and makes my hair look shorter…how do I fix that?
probably have a tighter curl pattern
Your curl pattern just tight af bro
Make a re twist tutorial without clips
Aye man been watching you for years and am on my third time trying locs. I always end up dealing with insane dandruff, what is the best way to rock starter locs with a flaky scalp ? Are there products for it?!
Whenever I find my scalp flaking up or start to itch I spray some water from a spray bottle just getting that area damp (or your whole head if needed) and massage some coconut oil (from my local whole foods) into that area of my scalp real good. It may cause some extra frizz but it beats having an itchy/flaky head in my opinion. Hope this possibly helps.
add jojoba oil and the itch will go away. just massage it in
try googling malassezia build up. you may have a yeast overgrowth causing the dandruff
I am a bit surprised how you make this crochet something special, after all it is generally available and easy to buy in smaller sizes that make it easier to make and maintenance dreadlocks. In my opinion, you should not dread your hair when there is a buildup / dry 'locking gel' on it because this ford will stay in the middle and will make you have white hard points on the dreadlocks. Intertwining a dread through its own root just to keep it lying is also not good for the hair. Dreads = PATIENCE. Remember that after all, Bro. Good luck!
Sometimes my skin peels off my finger when I use the crochet needle
That’s disgusting we don’t care
@@pxnmalsg calm down don’t pull out the 9
I didn’t understand the process but I liked the video because he has beautiful hands 🤷🏾♀️
can crochet dreads unravel tho?🤔
Yes
Is it bad that I’m getting instant locs with a crochet needle to start my locs?
Nope
Nothing wrong with it but they would look different from dreads done by twisting with gel
Ion people tht use crochet to get dreads imo is like fake dreads but do u 😁
@@deleted157 yea but I tried to start mine with 2 strand twists and they just kept unraveling
Hey would you be open to doing this for me for a TH-cam video? I’ll drop you a Dm on Ig...
So I'm doing the towel method and I have been doing it for two weeks and the top of my hair is always like frizzy so do you have any tips to make it look more like its twisted or should I start to finger coil my hair?
hair type? length ?
@@locsman 3 a or a 4 c or b and 3 to 4 inches
@@younglife6697 3a or 4c? Thats a massive difference .
How to stop locs from unraveling...🤦🏾♂️..
let the hair loc..... It won't unravel.. mfz be cheating the process..🤦🏾♂️..
to each his own tho..
Lmao it doesn’t loc. My edges unravel/curl/marry into larger ones if I leave it be. I will have one massive loc in the back
@@adriennelorraine4317 tbh... I can't comb my edges or locs out in anyway beyond a inch or 2 from the scalp.. and my hair is very healthy.. so I guess we are both speaking from personal experience rather then quantifying the idea people in have different hair textures and practices..🤷🏾♂️
first !
Is it jus me or his dreads kinda look like lil baby and nle choppa dreads

Check "1 Corinthians 15 :1-4"

Get to the point....
Dude thats not how u twist dreads go get ur hair done professionally and then theyll lock
he's a professional, whatever works for him, works don't question it you are watching HIS video.
@@yerkdonor course man can question, anyone can make a channel and talk ish but that don't mean say the advice is legit .. he's a professional 🤔 video maker, but he don't know ish about growing healthy locs, fools.
Yeah go to a professional for something your hair will do naturally
