I watched ur vid 2yrs ago to learn the rip & twist method as I have long straight hair. I started with 10 under & now hv 95% of my hair dreaded based on the rip & twist method along with crocheting. I hv done it all myself & will be celebrating 2yrs tomorrow on 4/20!!! It's so easy to do, time consuming , but totally worth it!!! I wish I would of known this 20 yes ago when my husband began his journey with dreads. I know share this knowledge with all who inquire. Thanks so much for helping me begin my local journey!!😁✌

[@andreabreedlove1386]

I just got my dreads and i have straight hair! My hair was also not very long but i didnt wan t to wait lol I had a friend do them that knew how to crochet. They turned out pretty good, but I plan to add in extensions to give it a longer look, i think longer dreads just looks better in my opinion :). i super exited for my dread journey. And your 100% correct on the fizziness lol The frizz is always there but ive kind of gotten use to it. Im trying to learn how to backcomb/crochet dreads so that way I can make my own extensions rather than pay for someone to do them. Itll save me alot of money in the future also im a Cosmetology student so knowing how to do them will benefit me. But patients is definitely key. It's not as simple as it looks.

[@EthanYoung]

I am 5 months into my dreadlock journey. I am doing the towel/freeform method. I wanted surfer type dreads so I like a freeform look where all of my dreads are different sizes and are not perfectly uniform. It is also pretty nice because this method does not require a ton of maintenance. My hair is 3b but along the hair line it is less curly so I did have to crochet hook those front ones. Anyways they are still forming and I still rub my head with a towel and use sea salt water from time to time.

[@ExposedRoot]

Wow will take a year for my 4c to loc. Moisterizing, spritzing, oiling. You just did it in a 10 minute video. Journey??

[@fto2x]

I have high top locs, got them with a brush, I spray them with tropical roots growth oil every night and put on a durag, and I also usedMurray’s locking gel to get them. I’ve had them for a month

[@BazookaDoe]

I'm about to start today. I'm so happy I watched this video. Thank you.

For some reason I’m wanting dreads at 43 years old. I guess it don’t matter the age but 🤣 and my hair is to my .... I don’t even know how to go about it

[@diannebatis1114]

No worries about age. I first wanted them in the 80s when l got deep into reggar, but l'm a procrastinator. Glad l didn't get them then cause l had cancer in 2000 n lost my hair...l would've been devastated! Anyway, l finally got them at 71 years old. I'm now 73 n LOVE having them!! 🦁

How did you go?
Did you get them?
Do you have dreads now?
Tell me about your experiences please 🙏

[@LuckyLokks13]

I started my lock journey after having open heart surgery at 41 yrs old. My hair thinned a lot so I wanted to do something that would add length & volume. I’ve watched every tutorial & video u have out along with about 20 others. You show detail & thats what I needed. It’s so hard to do them yourself. I’m an addict in recovery getting my life together one day at a time. I can’t really afford to pay someone to do them for me. What hair is the softest to use? I’m a redhead so it’s hard to find hair to match or blend well. Any tips are greatly appreciated!!! Thank u again!!!

[@saspirella09]

So glad u found this. I've asked ppl on fb if they would let me have a go at loc'in their hair. 4 ppl replied 👌🏾 how long did this take..? An they look really good. Thanks for sharing with us👍🏾😁

[@heathermartin5636]

I've been watching your videos and looking up more for a few months now. I started dreads in my hair a few months ago but I was struggling with keeping my root separate and not having a giants mat at the base so I started over. I have straight hair and I have them sectioned via rubber bands till I could find a solution. I love the style and want to continue it. Could you do a root maintenence tutorial on straight hair?

[@lovin5crazykids558]

***Did the same method except I used Burt Bees Hand Salve.....bees wax....to tighten them with the palm rolling method right after. I also keep cute beeds in certain areas that are starting to bulge out to keep them even and tight 🤙🏽😁***

[@glxskyiscool9990]

Straight hair dreadlocks I think look different and more messy but after locking up and after a few years they are BEAUTIFUL.

[@jazzieholden2001]

My sister husband has dreads! I've always thought about getting them definitely gonna have my sister start on em using this video

[@deucelodify]

I have straight hair locks have spent 3 months working them with product and twisting and braiding them down... they are starting to mature at the roots and now I’m starting to thing about working the twist and rip with palm roll, and hook latch and crochet needle to clean up all the friz the only product I’ve ever used to date is Murray’s wax. That I would put in twice a month... patience to get em going is what I’ve learned

[@nickspencer1885]

This was the video I used to do my straight hair dreadsand been growing strong for a year now. I found a latch hook crochet needle really helps when working on them myself

hi , I got very long straight hair, I will be growing like 30 cm (12 inches) longer (then will be above knees) , I am getting semi free forms, and now i am on day 3, hair starting to lock at places, so I where they lock I want to kind of separate those locking places ant put a rubber band, how should I separate on very long heavier hair to a proper size?? (to avoid thinning and other issues), so because my hair are already quite heavy, should a make the separations slightly bigger than usual ?? (to make sure the roots will hold a dread well and strong) , my hair pretty much grows more in to length and some baby hairs also, I will use some natural growth oil or growth serum to get more baby hairs and roll them into dreadlocks and that will cause stronger loc root.
