@@AT-ec9gb yessir but it depends the look your goin for. Like look up jemigotsoul and westindieray and look at their locs. Those are how two strand locs turn out with some texture.

And yeah thats true for all locs but it depends. 5 months in I already have a lot of locing and budding just a lot of frizz still but i maintain with a two strand style every 2-3 weeks and retwist monthly and interloc every 2-3 months.
@@AT-ec9gb If you have locs already you can try washing a lot. At one point I was washing weekly when I knew I wasn’t going anywhere but it did help my hair get loc’d too.

First every 2 weeks now im gonna go a month again without washing to see how it goes since i have my routine down to prevent flakes and I want to see if my hair locs fast in this way too or with washing more often.

started my locs back in jan ‘22 wit 2 strand and it took my hair 4-5 months to loc wit a 4c type hair. this my first time finding your page but if been found it i would have been subbed.

I called myself trying to retwist my 13 year olds starter locks. Didn't go well😅 About three rows in I started 2 strand twist. Sooo much easier and better looking. It's holding up way better and I can see the length of his hair more.
A yr in growing my hair out havent cut it since last March. 4-5 inches of growth so far, gonna two strand twists my hair this week, i keep coming back binge watching so I think its time 😂 keep doing what you’re doing & stay blessed my brother 🙏🏾
My hair is past my knees. I had a lot of issues when I tried to start them with two strands. After about 3 years I had them detangled by a professional loctician and coiled right. 16 years later and I’m sure glad I did it. My opinion is start with the coils
I started my dreadlocks with two strand twists and tbh the best thing to get them locked up is really just time and water. I’ve been washing them twice a week since I started, they started to lock up pretty fast. They just got dummy frizzy for a while and over time frizz died down and continues to die down but my locks are very VERY locked. I’ve recently started to use a crochet needle, interlocking, and braid styles with locking gel and it couldn’t be better so far. I also use castor oil for growth. I think it all just depends on your hair but miy curl pattern isn’t that tight. I’m a football player, i go swimming and rarely sleep with anything on my head. I think all the friction and shenanigans helped my hair lock
My brother told me to wash my hair once a month since I’m doing my own locs. I’m going to try your method soon ..maybe in July so I can see what works better for me. I’m having trouble with frizzing too ESPECIALLY in the back😭😭.
I really recommend to whoever wants to start dreads, it's easier to 2 strand twist the hair and it's faster and better looking if u start with a high top fade
@@VinnyMatthews thanks bro for the info I've been growing my hair for 2 years and 7 months I'm getting the 2 strand twist method next month also and I'm sorry for what happened to you brother but as hard as it is to we gotta understand that death isn't a bad thing he's free from this bullshit we live in we're made to last never fold nor crack
I started like this September 23rd but I washed immediately I didn’t use rubber bands and I retwisted my first time with interlocking 2 point rotation. They look great. I 163 locks I started with 167
Great vid young blood ✊🏾💯. What you said about how you started your twist is kind of exactly where I'm at. I'm still just getting my hair braided but seriously considering locs. Wanted a way to transition into it and I've been seeing the 2-strands around and been loving them. Def subscribing and looking forward to more vids...and not just because we're both Vincents 😉. Thx
If I every had to restart I would probably give it a try it doesn't take long for my hair to lose patterns because of my texture and a few days of water washes. And easier to get a very thick loc
In your opinion what's the easier method? Having ur twist lock up on their own, or unraveling them and locking the individual strands? Also, which looks neater?
@@VinnyMatthews Wait so im starting locs with two strand i leave them in for months then take out the two strand and do something like palm roll the individual strand?
You can wash your two strand twist as much as you want just make sure your gentle simply because it is a protective hairstyle and if your in the 4’s the moisture might even make your hair curl more and lock them better and quicker.
SUBSCRIBED!!!!! I've been gettin twist for almost a year and just now deciding to let them loc from the twist so this is definitely gonna help me out!! Thanks bro
I’m thinking of doing this this time around, I’m light skin white skin but my hair is so damn curly if I sponge brush it and wash after a couple days the twists stay in, I also never have to use rubber bands on my braid cos the ends knot up right away. This may be the process I need!
I just got my hair loc'd 2 weeks ago and I think my loctician gave me palm coils (I'm not sure...I never asked but from the looks I'm sure that's what it is) and likewise I'm starting with basic info. After watching this I'm wondering what about 2 strand twists makes them easier to manage...
Same hear mahn I got two strand twist on my hair but and wasn't planning on dreads but once the twist come on I automatically started thinking about turning them into dreads and I got really course hair so it never unreveles
Im just starting my loccs in a couple weeks and I was trying to decide on which one I wanted to start with coils or two strand but after watching videos and everything I’m definitely leaning towards the two strand method it looks hella lit and I’m hella excited
Lol I just combed out 9-10 month Locs that were started with a coils a few days ago all because I wanted more. But restarted the journey with 2 strand this time. Been hearing a lot of good things with this method over comb coils which I’ve had both styles multiple times before I decided to loc lol. Lowkey think the 2 strand going to be better tho we’ll see
@@drakkowrld8511 I ended up going back to a twist out for alittle felt like I needed to give my scalp and hair a break after combing out my Locs. As for two strand method it’s personal preference. I personally liked coils better. They locd quicker..way easier to to palm roll if needed and just seem to have more flow and character. Either one good but if you like me and got 4c naaaaaaapy hair 😭 go coils trust 3-4 months you’ll be stuck in that mirror 🤦🏽♂️ lol just always start smaller if your not sure cause they will thicken up on budding stage then slime maybe alittle later on. Miss my locs I’ll be starting another journey here shortly 👌🏽
Been growing for 10 months and I have about 8 inches of hair, after keeping my two strands in for 6 weeks I decided to pull them and get comb coils to start locs (almost a full set kept the temp fade doe) Day two right now
How long should I wait to wash my hair with two strand twists in and how should I was them? I wanna free form with these twists in but that’s the only thing concerning me
I did this with my two strand twists let them free form. For me personally, the more washing, the faster i saw the twists disappear but i have coarse dense hair so it locs fast no matter what lol
I’m so confused I got 3c or 4a or b hair and I just got 2 strand twists but I don’t got dread locks underneath so how is this going to give me dreadlocks like do I take this out someday and each strand will be dreaded?
I have 4c type hair Should I fully blow dry my hair straight on Full heat or medium heat leave my hair not at its full potential of fully being straight before doing the 2 strand twist…hopefully this makes sense to you
Wsg what did u do to ur two strand twists to make them stay did u just not shower the first few day? Cause I tried it a month ago and had a shower li every day an put conditioner shampoo on prolly why it came out but did u do anything like twist the twists if they came out or even sleep with a durag I sleep with one or anything ? Also what u twist ur two strand twists with
@@amazingjay3957 you can’t do that if you wash your hair it ruins the process and slows it down and plus it’s the same as free forming you can’t wash it you have to let them loc by themselves after they loc you can wash them properly I was using the sponge at first for like 6 months and they didn’t loc cuz I was washing my hair you so when it starts locing you basically separate your hair so it doesn’t lock and it itches but after the first month you don’t get itchy and if you do just scratch it a little bit cuz you used to
I started my mom and my nephew locs without 2 strand and it eas better for me and it locd faster than my cousin hsir which i 2 stranded method . It keeps coming out when i go to retwist the roots weeks later
So when I get my two strand twist hard twisted I should put a rubber band on the root so it won’t come out? Right now I’m using locking gel but only 3weeks in to my twist
@@Ljthemvp let me rephrase that wash at 4 weeks mark then every two weeks after that. Use a tea tree oil blend everyweek on scalp, rose water everyday on locs. It won't smell.
Can’t really find vids on this but I have really tiny two strand twist the salon didn’t do them big like I asked what if I take them out as a twist out could I possibly start my dreads from there ?
How do you start two strand twists? I got so many questions. How do you keep it moisturized? (Ik putting things in your scalp to keep it moisturized, then theres leave-in conditioner you can just keep in) How to sleep? (I know about headwraps and bonnets) What to put in when you wake up? How long to keep them in and re-twist? What about washing my hair? Do I keep them in?
Oil em every 2 to 3 days and just let them be and make sure to keep ‘em covered I recommend a du rag so you can pull em down a little and get sun hang time
One thing imma tell y’all bout startin this way. Ya ass gone need patience I’m 10 months in nd contemplated combin em out so many goddamn times. But I’m boutta hit a year soon so it worked out. I grew it out for 2 years then locked it. This shit Ain for the ones wit no patience
I got mixed hair thats semi course but more on the black side and i dont have dreads already but i did 2 strand twist and they look nice hopefully they form into dreads cause if it works i might have some fye ass dreads feel me 🔥🤣

So how do you make the locs tiny if you use this method?
when u retwist it over after 6 months to fully loc up ..it will stretch
Small foundation 🔒
Think I’m gonna comb my locs out and do the 2strand method now

Nah it doesn’t matter 🔒
How do you start two strand twists? I got so many questions.
How do you keep it moisturized? (Ik putting things in your scalp to keep it moisturized, then theres leave-in conditioner you can just keep in)
How to sleep? (I know about headwraps and bonnets)
What to put in when you wake up?
How long to keep them in and re-twist?
What about washing my hair? Do I keep them in?
I made videos about all this lol. Check ‘em out 🔒
What’s answer to those questions ^?
so what about the beeswax ? could u answer that pls bc my loctician uses it
i got a question wen should you unravel the two strand twist? a month in or?
Two weeks
Just started 2 strands 2 days ago. How are you guys keeping them moisturized everyday?
Oil em every 2 to 3 days and just let them be and make sure to keep ‘em covered I recommend a du rag so you can pull em down a little and get sun hang time
@@lowlifegxo3851 Good look!
@Lowlifegxo u spray water on em shits and apply oil to lock in after or nah. Finna get my two strands loc’d up
Spritz them with a lil water & oil them after to lock in moisture especially Type 4 hair wanna do this 2-3 times a week
I’m on my 3rd week how long should I wait to wash or retwist them
A good 2 months
Do you put rubber bands?
Yessir
Starting my journey as I type this any tips for heavy sleepers?

@@VinnyMatthews because I sleep hard and my hair mats up
@@VinnyMatthews and almost interlocks naturally
@@michaelburton6380 wear a bonnet or hair-tie
Are you supposed to wash your hair everytime you retwist?
One thing imma tell y’all bout startin this way. Ya ass gone need patience I’m 10 months in nd contemplated combin em out so many goddamn times. But I’m boutta hit a year soon so it worked out. I grew it out for 2 years then locked it. This shit Ain for the ones wit no patience
I started my dreads like a month ago taking a while to lock . But what i do about all the fizz . Do i just leave it alone ?
Ya dreads gon take longer than a month to lock, and u can’t do nun bout the frizz, the frizz is all apart of the locking process
facts on facts
@@deejay5781 thanks alot ...so u think i should wait 6 months to retwist them over to fully loc up ?
@@VinnyMatthews can i wait 6 months after getting two twist strand to full loc up in the 6th month?
I got mixed hair thats semi course but more on the black side and i dont have dreads already but i did 2 strand twist and they look nice hopefully they form into dreads cause if it works i might have some fye ass dreads feel me 🔥🤣
it'll take time but it'll work
If ya hair unravels then use rubber bands to keep the twist in place.
Yep 🔒
soo when you start dreads with twists do the dreads become bigger or smaller than the twist size?
Depending on your hair type 🔒
@@VinnyMatthews my hair type is about 4a with 4b in the bac
It gets bigger (the size depends on how thick your hair is) then it gets a little smaller as your hair start to loc in
