    So with this method, do you need sea salt everytime you rub the hair or not at all if u dont want to?
    And I didn't really get the washing count, once a week? With or without schampoo? Sorry for my english, and I would be very happy if you would answer soon! I want my dreads too look exactly like yours in 1 year update :D

    • @Knottytrent
      @Knottytrent  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      RihoGaming so not you don't need the sea salt. You spray that every two to three day on depending how it feels. Rub everyday at the beginning. Until your happy and cut down as you feel the dreads are coming along. Wash every week or two at the beginning depending on how bad you need to.

    How do you get your hair to not look so 'big' at the beginning stage? Once it really starts to dread up will it flatten down more? Thanks for going into detail too this really helps

    • @Nathan-bg5dt

    • @Nathan-bg5dt
      @Nathan-bg5dt 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hobbsy well for some people then haha, the best thing is to just sleep I guess. I did my dreads with twist and rip and I rub my hair to get them to stick down and I just wear a hat.

    • @oHobbsGFX
      @oHobbsGFX 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nathan what did you do for school/work? Where you can't wear a hat

    • @Nathan-bg5dt
      @Nathan-bg5dt 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hobbsy just let it stick up. It will look bad and messy and people will stare at you but in the end they'll look amazing. Even if you do twist and rip or back comb they will stick up for awhile anyway. All dreads stick up then there new I guess
      But back to the point I just left it how it is

      Im not sure sorry. Mine started in one mass but the more I rubbed the more little dreads would appire. I did not tie mine up at the start as I could not really. The set I have now I only rubber for a week then let them dread them selfs for the rest of the time. if there was some that I thought would be too thick then I would seperate by hand by pulling apart.

      Invest in a good hair dryer. I sit with it for a few hours after towel drying my locs. my locs are to my waist so shouldnt take that long for you but if you're dedicated you'll need to make a habit of it You don't want any moisture staying in your hair, could lead to mould.

      After 2 months it should not be too bad. If you going in the sea then I would say when ever as that’s great for your hair.

      Lorenzo Schröter it should work over time but will take longer. There lots of methods that would work better. You should research back combing, crochet hook or maybe twist and rip. These should stay in so your hair should stay in dreads :). Good luck. By all means try the rubbing method and let me know how it goes. :).

      Natural Roots yeah that's right but you can separate them. If you don't want the congos. I personal quite like them. With controlled rubbing on curtain parts of the head you will get what ever outcome you wish.

      Mr_ Eyeless you would just rub the hair you want to dread up. Try and separate the sides when you do it u less it's short hair.

      @Knottytrent  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      kodubbe just until your happy yes. I did mine for a week then left them ever since. First time I did this method I rubber for three months then rubbed on loose hair. It's up to you really where to and when and how long. Until you like it! :)

    • @kodubbe
      @kodubbe 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Connor Trent right on. if it will just continuously lock up the dreads then I'm all about this method! I just don't want to be counter productive and rub loose something that was already locked up. thanks for your response man

      Diegolink it depends on your hair type if you have thunk curly hair then quicker than fine long hair. It also depend if hiw long you rub for be a week like me or 5 months.

    • @Knottytrent
      @Knottytrent  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tall Frenchy You could stop now and let them finish them self if you want to. I would not over rub otherwise you will start you join up the dreads that have formed with others unless you want that. You can focus rubbing on parts of the head that has more loose hair.

    • @TallFrenchy
      @TallFrenchy 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Connor Trent it’s just the back of my head I got a lot of loose hair so they fell out but I guess just let it be and should I make a video of my dread update and then u can see it and tell me if I shuf keep rubbing

    • @Knottytrent
      @Knottytrent  6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      make a video for you not me. Then you can see your progress. You just need to be patient brothey will come just maybe spray twice a week with salt spray, wear wooly hats that helps loose hair get pulled in. if you don't want any loose hair you should get a crochet hook and tuck in. but they will only get better in time :)

      @Knottytrent  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No only when I wash them. If its a really nice day and they are itchy I will rinse them with water and massage my scalp under the shower with means I can postpone a wash for a week. If I can't dry them I will just wait till my next wash.

    • @Knottytrent
      @Knottytrent  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You could but you would get less friction and the process would take longer. Plus the salt spray would not get in to the fibers of the towel and then each time you used it you would not get the benefit of a salty towel

    • @Knottytrent
      @Knottytrent  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Franky Ortega I used a crochet hook the first time. And I have gone for more free form this time. I rubbed my hair for a week then I have freeformed for a year. I only rough dry it which helps the locking up.

      @Knottytrent  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      x-chetito XIII I have not heard of that before but it will work both ways as if you rub anti clockwise then there should be more friction? I’m not sure I’m just going with what worked for me. Thanks though I will look in to it :)

      the salt spray and rubbing is all the same method you just use the salt spray at the beginning of the rubbing method. sometimes I use it if I feel I have extra loose hair. the salt spray is just to speed up and help the process.
