Showed my wife your channel a while back to convince her to loc up with me, but she’s also mixed (w mom/b dad) and just watches to support. She feels the same as you, sadly not enough mixed children speak out about it. So thank you for using your platform in ways you can make a difference 💪🏽
im mixed too and ive been called racist names from both races bc im mixed but my hair is only a little nappy so i felt like i didnt fit in with white kids or black kids and made me embcare 1 race and forget abt da other
I am a Loctiton ; I So Agree about two strand twist is great for curly texture hair. It makes the Retwist last so much Longer. And once its time to take the Twist out you can wear it crinkly also for a week or 2. So you Really get 2 Styles in one. Good video. "Shout Out to the Stylist also".... She done a Great job! 🏅
I find that it people speak that way it is normally because familial ties, or lack there of or because they've been conditioned to think it those terms by society
I’m Jamaican and I know a lot about locks but I just want you to know that Bob Marley was biracial too but he was extremely proud of his locks and the religion of Rastafarian.
Love ya brother, God doesn’t make mistakes and He loves us through ours, even He cries when we lose things and people close to us. Your hair looks amazing and I’m glad you continue to be a man of God while doin your thing G
Thank you for speaking up on your mixed heritage. I’m mixed too. Jamaican mom and Scandinavian dad. Brought up in London. And I really related to your story. I’m debating locs and this is definitely giving me the push ❤
thank you alot!!! ive been watching for a while now and wanted to share what i did because of your videos i braided the hair as box and let them lock for a little over 2 months then after i started to use the crotchet needles to lock and refine and also did the rub in hands as well it works super good thank you!!
Hi gunther I just wanna say you helped me start my loc journey and i have had my locs for 8 months i have a 3b hair type and my locs are just starting to gain a lot of hang time and im pretty lightskin and i always get told chop my dreads of or stuff like whys ur hair so stinky or like chop of those whiteboy dreads or stuff like your to white to have those locs and ive felt like chopping my locs off but just want to say youve encourage me a lot to stay on this journey thanks Gunther
I’m mixed but my hair is more curly , the black community picks and chooses who they accept lightskin for blacks , you gotta have black facial features and have that aura, I can see why they say your white but you a brotha
The black community is way too big for that statement to hold. Many (African) Americans have been conditioned to believe that anyone with at least one black parent is black. But still, some AA might define black people as a person who has 2 black parents/at least 3 black grandparents and define someone with 1 black parent and 1 white parent as mixed, while others might determine someone's race based on appearence - phenotype and hair texture.
I can relate to you as well. I’m 87% black and 13% white. But I have gotten the “you’re not black enough colorism too as a light skin black person. Like you said embracing your unique and diversity and not allowing people to determine your outcome. Never let your light dim down.
Good for you, you are the first mixed white black person i heard on video embracing being both which is a good thing, its awesome being a unique individual. My kids are mixed too and i teach them to be proud of who they are. About the dreads, mixed people i feel have the best dreads, in terms of free form rasta type dreads which i am really in to, like bob marley, j cole nyjah huston type dreads.
@@Onlyyuniqueno if they have a black mother then they will act way more black then a black dad cuz most kids follow after there mother cuz the kids always like the mothers side of the family more if the father really ain’t in they life
Very Nice Outcome. TRY 4 Locs per Twist next time. That Actually Take less time and the Twist will be thicker. It gives it a Whole different look too. Thanks for Sharing.
I have a similar hair texture like you (I’m German and Black) and I have had dreads before, but the girl who did them (white) moved away. The hair salons in my town that call themselves “loc experts” always give me bs about my hair and why I could never get them. Then I have to tell them and show them pics. They also say insta locks won’t work for my hair 🤦🏽♀️ so I said all that to say this. I can to my own in the front but what is the best way for the back? I get frustrated and wash them out 😢 any advice or videos on doing the back of the head?
I brought up getting locs to my friends, they said I didn’t look “thug” enough and that I was “too smiley” (not really being mean I didnt take it to heart), I want locs but idk if I’d look good with them since the people I’ve talked to have been against it
Bro can you please do Rylo Rodriguez Dread Loc breakdown he black but he got American Indian in his family so Everybody sayin he got extensions it might be the fastest growth
Ayye gunther me and you have small dreads tips stop twisting ur hair so often , keep your two strand twist in for like 2 months at the most then I say wait like 3 weeks go get tht retwist
I under to watch your content 6 years ago.. Your content was super inspirational.. From talking about gym, to christianity and the dread journey.. now i kinda feel like you just post click baits about dreadlocs.. Hope you get back to the proper content I miss. Wishing you love all the way from South Africa bro ...
@gunther I just found this video, i heard you say you mix and I was wondering if respectfully ask for your advice? Please feel free to say no if you feel uncomfortable or disrespect.
I just started my loc journey and I heard you say washing your hair, mean quicker growth. How do i wash with starter locs? They aren’t little short ones also.
The title is insane, to anybody with a functioning brain they would say you look mulatto or mixed or possibly even Dominican cause the hair texture, but PX is a weird place so I’m not surprised
I'm a Biracial as well even though where not Talked about it seems I am Latino Biracial My mother is Black and My Father is Latino Puerto rican I have the Complexion as Gunther but I have looser Curls a 3a-3b curl type leaning more 2 the 3a side that come down 2 My Back so I definitely feel the same I'm the oldest in my Family 2 of my other siblings have both Black parents and my little brother who shares the same mom as me but also a Latino father of Cuban descent but I had 2 go thru 2 the same experiences and looks as well
Your so awesome . I have six malino children and two African American children. They are all just great children. Your Definitely right though. Embrace who you are & love yourself for who you are. We are all of different colors and it's a beautiful Thang to be different. Myself my blood line runs real deep . Anyway God bless you and stay positive. So many unhappy people on the world that needs help. HURT PEOPLE :HURT PEOPLE.
That was a beautiful speech at the end
Bruh I placed a order on July 1

People are pathetic, remember that, and just dont pay them attention
This is so sad. I hope you keep them in this time.
Your mum is white. Tf are you wearing twists as a girl. That's not your culture
Make the world deal with who you are, don't let them change you

It makes the Retwist last so much Longer.
And once its time to take the Twist out you can wear it crinkly also for a week or 2.
So you Really get 2 Styles in one.
Good video.
"Shout Out to the Stylist also".... She done a Great job! 🏅
''I'm not one or the other, I'm both'' surprised me cus normally people I meet only want to claim or speak positively about one side
I find that it people speak that way it is normally because familial ties, or lack there of or because they've been conditioned to think it those terms by society
Gunther that title to extra 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 it's unnecessary 😂
You 110% not mixed, you wouldn't get it.
Ur deaf
Ok logic lol
How? It’s kinda the truth
But if he referred to himself as black then it would be of comfort to yr enslaved mind ...🤦🏻♂️Wise up
what you said at the beginning is so relatable, as a lightskin who looks real similar to you, i’ve been called both my whole life
Your hair does look amazing. When I get my hair retwisted I too feel the confidence. You feel like a bright new person. Great content.
If you ever feel alone bc of this, like you don’t belong, come back to this video and remember you got da Great fam 😎
I’m Jamaican and I know a lot about locks but I just want you to know that Bob Marley was biracial too but he was extremely proud of his locks and the religion of Rastafarian.
Tbh I like when dreads are frizzed up and messy. Its a nice contrast with the fade.
Love ya brother, God doesn’t make mistakes and He loves us through ours, even He cries when we lose things and people close to us. Your hair looks amazing and I’m glad you continue to be a man of God while doin your thing G
Thank you for speaking up on your mixed heritage. I’m mixed too. Jamaican mom and Scandinavian dad. Brought up in London. And I really related to your story. I’m debating locs and this is definitely giving me the push ❤
I'm proud to say that I'm black and I strongly will fight for it, peace is not an option it never gets us anywhere
This title so green bro 😂
I saw a light skin ninja in the thumbnail. The title is crazy
Literally in the salon rn getting my starter locs. Im mixed wit black and white
Yea it can be a bit of an identity crisis sometimes when you mixed and hang around the wrong people sick hair style tho 🔥🔥

My advice for you is to keep the 2 strand twist in and let loc up so your roots can look thicker and healthier because your roots got skinnier
Hi gunther I just wanna say you helped me start my loc journey and i have had my locs for 8 months i have a 3b hair type and my locs are just starting to gain a lot of hang time and im pretty lightskin and i always get told chop my dreads of or stuff like whys ur hair so stinky or like chop of those whiteboy dreads or stuff like your to white to have those locs and ive felt like chopping my locs off but just want to say youve encourage me a lot to stay on this journey thanks Gunther
Don’t let ‘em get to you brother 😎
Thanks bro
youve literally made being "lightskinned" your entire identity lol. your name is averagelightskin and your channel is lightskinnedfromuk 😂.
Awesome!!! She did a great job!
A lightskin goes to barber shop*
He’s also white so he’s embracing both cuz no one ever embrace or talk about there white side
@@BreakingDeadEditzzzit’s hard to not embrace your white side when the black folk constantly exclude you because of it 😂
3:07 this right here! Yessir man you should definitely embrace both parts of your culture 💪🏾
Mixed struggles 🫠 Im right there wit ya
That was a beautiful speech at the end very beautiful in touching fade.
Thats sounds like a ChatGPT story.

Use a mirror start from front to middle to back just get the sections goin then it should be easier and I would use a instant lock
And get bigger sections easier to lock
@@Fffdffdsssssjxx thank you 😊
If you weren’t so quick to call yourself a white boy she might stayed 😭

And I also love the message/story you shared with us so thank you for that Gunther! ❤
Great message! ❤ 20mins under the dryer? Lucky you. I have to stay under for about an hour and I hate it lol.
Gunter isn't 100% white. But the right definition for it is called biracial or mixed.
I brought up getting locs to my friends, they said I didn’t look “thug” enough and that I was “too smiley” (not really being mean I didnt take it to heart), I want locs but idk if I’d look good with them since the people I’ve talked to have been against it
As someone who works corporate America with locs love the self acceptance talk
White guy, Really? Where? Reachhhhhh..
I feel this title, I’m lightskin black but people be thinking I’m Mexican or mixed
