Also this method will Work. Over time his locs will still bud more and will probably be very thick and nice. It will work is the over all point if you want the instant look but they will still change and should thicken a bit more from the collecting of shredded hair over time.
I wish I knew how long as well. I have 3c hair and its like 5 inches long, I tried to start doing instalocks but the dread came out very small and I even used a pretty decent sized section for it too. When I tried to do the hair in the back the dread came out stupid tiny.
Where are you located? I would like to see if im close so I can setup an appointment. Also, great work and how much do you charge for a full head/how long? Thanks much
Was his hair naturally dreaded🤷🏽♀️ I have long dreads but I have very fine hair and my twist in the roots won’t stay someone said I should do this but can u do this over dreadlocks if someone knows the answer and a video too be great😀thanks 😉
Yes, you can do the interlock in the roots of your current dreads. Pull each dread through its own root, several times, until its comfortably tight against your scalp. every time you pull it through, do it from a different direction.
Hi I like your video I’m a Puerto Rican man with curly hair I’ve had my hair in starter locs for six months but the lady is only palm twisting and the hair is looping flatting and knotted together with other dreads should I get someone that knows how to crochet dreads so that they will stay in because she does not want to do it with the crochet needle and I am finished with her she does not listen when I tell her not to put any type of spray or stuff in my hair she knows I’m allergic to it and she still does it I am finished with her what is your suggestion.
You did that!!! I admire your work and have even duplicated a style of your on another client :) but this video was awesome! Not sure if it's to personal to ask on here, if so let me know a better way to contact you. How much would something like this cost on half/whole head and approximately how long did it take you?
Thank you so much! I unfortunately don't offer this service anymore but I wanted to share it with you guys. It took me about 4 hours, if I remember correctly.
As the hair grows, it will obviously be loose, so you will have to do what I did in this video, interlock it. That is what I'm doing with the second tool. You insert the dread through its own roor\t several times till it tightens up.
Since I'm mixed and have what they call "loose" or "soft" curls I decided to try something like this and paid someone to do this about 6 months ago and it I really hated the way it turned out. I believe she tried to palm roll my hair and maybe interlock the base? I'm not exactly sure but my question is, do you have to interlock the base once you're done using the crochet method? Or will it just fall apart without that?
With the crochet method, I can only crochet comfortably to about a 1/2 inch from the scalp. That short loose section is what I interlock, so If you don't interlock, it will stay lose but not unravel or fall apart. The crochet hook lets you create a knotted dread immediately and secures the whole section from becoming loose. You would have to do some serious brushing if you want to undo the crochet hook's job.
Thanks for the reply! Can I ask why you stopped providing this service at your shop? Also do you know of any other shops that offer this service, possibly in the D.C. area?
I stopped cuz it was taking time away from my braiding. I adore doing cornrows. I am happier creating vs doing a repetitive motion. You can see some of my braiding work in my other videos/playlists. I honestly don't know anyone around that area specializing in the service but don't be afraid to ask someone you see in the street with really nice dreads lol. Just complement them and tell them you need help lol.
@@jesusc3625 There are some that do straighter hair textures. My hair is a straighter texture with loose waves, i have dreads. You have to find someone that can.
It's not long since I discovered this TH-cam channel and I enjoyed the video, explain it well that made me want to share also my haircut / routine and all my adventures. Exactly I made a video trick to have twists I will be glad that you will see this video and that you give me your opinion and why not tell me that you think of the video so that I will be able to improve myself. 'future 😊
Within 3 days the most, the get loose and kinda swing in all directions. At the time of this video, he wanted to wear them back in a ponytail. Now they look like this: instagram.com/jayson_echo/?hl=en
SzerszeŃ Official you cant keep interlocking in the same direction. You always enter the hook at a different angle as the last time. Think of the base of the lock, as the face of a watch. I start by inserting my latch hook from 6 and I pull the lock in through 12 o'clock. Then I insert through 3 and pull in through 9 o'clock. And you keep rotating and pulling from different angles, clockwise, to avoid creating that gap in the middle of the dread.
It was on purpose so we wouldn't get too much "shrinkage". When you do instant locs, you lose about half of your natural length. So imagine cutting your length to half! His hair is curly, so we can get away with it since it will loc by itself quickly. On straight hair, you should def crochet til the end of tips.
@@ambuyat69 Dont believe that! So many other race get locs done. Im not black and i have dreads. You can purchase fake dreads online to see how they look on you. But trust, Asians can get it done
I already started mine,a friend of mine crochet them for me but not like you did in this video,this is exactly how I want them re-done
Also this method will Work. Over time his locs will still bud more and will probably be very thick and nice. It will work is the over all point if you want the instant look but they will still change and should thicken a bit more from the collecting of shredded hair over time.
Bro. Chronicles thicc locs 😏
MOST HELPFUL ONE ON TH-cam THANK YOU FINALLY SOMEBODY!!!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
i wish i seen how long his hair was before u do it up..:(
You can also install fake dreadlocks bro
As long as your hair js long enough to get dreaded, you can crochet it. I dunno about the interlocking part though.
It will get shorter after dreadlock
@@kxnglee i interlock mine with my fingers they're about 1 and a half inch

Yooo i need this!😍🔥
Great work! I'm falling in love with locs especially after watching this video.
Where are you located? I would like to see if im close so I can setup an appointment. Also, great work and how much do you charge for a full head/how long?

I have a question, is it possible to undo this hairstyle or would you have to just shave off most of the loc to get rid of it?
You did that!!! I admire your work and have even duplicated a style of your on another client :) but this video was awesome! Not sure if it's to personal to ask on here, if so let me know a better way to contact you. How much would something like this cost on half/whole head and approximately how long did it take you?
Sonja Hightower Be careful because this method makes your hair very frizzy after washing it
Thank you so much! I unfortunately don't offer this service anymore but I wanted to share it with you guys. It took me about 4 hours, if I remember correctly.
@@StrandAddict 4 hours! So when you take a shower do you have to like undo the dreads?
@@jesusc3625 No. You cover them and wash them about once a week. They aren't meant to be taken out.
@@jesusc3625 or less, depending on personal preference.
Awesome work. Love it.
I have a question, what happens when the hair stars to grow up, what happen with the hair that is coming out ?
Javier Vasquez it will grow the same but it will grow as dreadlocks and not just hair
As the hair grows, it will obviously be loose, so you will have to do what I did in this video, interlock it. That is what I'm doing with the second tool. You insert the dread through its own roor\t several times till it tightens up.

Que tan largo era el cabello?
How long should hair be for this?
Red-Master12 T put it up in a pont tail or bun and pull strands of hair in the pattern of choice and dreadlock one by one
O
Red-Master12 T The ideal length should be a little over 6inches because if you do them to short it may be hard to maneuver the crotchet hook
I want some
Where do you work at?
Now this is entertainment
where do i get these tools
Liam Mc Eneaney Hi! You can purchase them at StrandAddict.com
do you have to cut them afterwasrds if u want to remove them?
Dave Blvnko no, a lot of conditioner , water, and patience.. and you can remove them just fine.. I had locs about neck length and I combed them out
You can't take out interlocked dreads, they are super tight.
KJ Stiemke I’ve done it before... It just takes more time and patience
How to wash them
Looks painful
it hurt af dude xd
Hell yeah!!! Extremely
hell yeah
Not painful xd
Trust me it does not hurt it just looks painful

StrandAddict Thanks for the explanation! makes sense
As I explained in the caption of the video, this was done intentionally to preserve some of his length. Dreads shrink your hair's length to half.
Aye where do you live I need this done
that shit looks hard to do it by yourself
Do my hairrrr
Is it expensive?

Noooo. Don't interlock! A proper dread isn't one twisted threw itself, that shit just makes the dread tight in all the wrong way
