Interlocking and the crochet needle is a blessing 🙏🏽
Nice...very clear and to the point with differences on how it could be used with quick results. Thank you Your video was clear simple and to the point
I need you to come to Florida and help clean up my new dreadlocks😂 Love your videos, they help so much!!
Had my hair interloc’d and still ended up using the crochet needle. Now they look more uniform and like real locs. Great advice.
interlocking is used with a crochet needle, if they didn’t use one then they def didn’t interlock your hair.
Looks like you got some major growth
I just love this information❤️
I worked on me came out dope thanks to Gunther
This is a fab video, full of great info an knowledge! We are hairloss specialists and use a crochet interlocking method. We interlock the roots and crochet the mid lengths and ends. This creates instant looking dreads, a natural look! Palm roll over time can lead to alopecia, hairloss and breakage.
Perfect. Very HELPFUL! Thanks
the only thing you need for dreadlocks is hair really
Grzybson I grew my dreads completely on accident lol. Just simply grew my hair out & they turned out to great free forms. I still can’t believe it
@@fxckyojuice_ incredible how they form on their own isnt it?
Addi G It takes an EXTREME amount of patience if you want free forms. My hair was/is curly just like yours. It took at least 6 months for them to even start locking up. Just simply let your hair grow, just let time do it’s thing. The only thing I did to maintain them is I barely washed my hair (maybe twice out the whole week) & separate the dread when I seen too much hair locking up in one place (very important because you could end up getting super thick Congo like dreads). I’m 4 years in with the free forms. Wish I could show a pic, shits fire, love catching everyone attention just walking through.
Addi G drop your instagram, I’ll DM pics
Addi G bet I gotchu hitting your dm rn
Thanks man love the channel❤
Do more videos this is great and helpfull thanks!
I just started my dreads with coils a few weeks ago and I got really impatient so I picked up a crochet needle today and used it on my coils. Crochet needle is definitely the way to go!
rizzy36 was it easy?
@@kevf8582 Its really repetitive and time consuming. It took me something between 7-8 hours to crochet hook all of them properly. But it definitely pays off! You just have to take a break once in a while because your arms might get tired or your fingers hurt...
I just recently got one 👌🏽🤙🏾
Your hair is amazing 🤩!
Definitely gonna pick up a crochet hook! What size hook do you recommend? I have curly hair so I'm unsure if I need a particular size or if hair type makes no difference. The ones that I've found locally all come in a kit but I just want one to keep on me while I travel...🙏🏽
Now that’s a good idea 💡
GREATLOCKS GOD OF DREADS 💯
Plz get dreads again Gunther, but take the freeform route
ew no
Foodrun this didn’t age well.
Foodrun if you think free forms are ew don’t even consider getting dreads free forms are a way of living a way of showing maturity in not just your hair but in life, one must accept his natural self by letting the hair do what it wants your hair is an extension of your self dah freeforms hold more energy then any none free formed dreads. It shows dedication self love and you feel accomplished it’s a whole boost in your life after free forming no one can bust down ur positive vibes.
swagsession1 i already have dreads stfu
Foodrun 🤡🤡🤡
This is the video I needed. Showing this to one to the boys💪💪
I have a crocheting locs video on my channel
u sold me about that needle i gotta get one
Pure beauty
Gunther if you have crocheted locs that are a bit too thick for your likings, can you make them skinnier through good maintenance or is the only way to minimize them splitting the dread ?
The reminds me of of felt needle work
OG homie here
i used gel on my hair and i used sponge method to make my dread locs . They haven't gotten a satisfying look since then . How will i make them better . do i use crotchet method to make them look nice
do your dreads get thicker than they look when you first crochet them?
Do u recomend using dreadlock comb and other tools for seperating dividing hair?
Would u recommend using the brush method to twist hair?
Should I use the chrochet needle or the twist method rn???
So i can start with twisting and gel and mature with crochet hooking? With straight?
Thankes
Thx
forget dread locks his hair in this video is awesome. teach me dat
Hey if I got these can I comb them out if I wanted smaller ones
Nice vid your are great at being great Gunther the great
How can I do it if I already have starter locs
bro this video made me buy a crochet hook and lmaooo i deadass got dreads like deadass 😭😭
what do they look like now
Gweenwee
damn it’s really been 5 months but they look great
@@ViralMomentzZ you gotta instagram? i wanna see em i’m bout dread mine up this weekend
@@ralphgaines damn its been 10 months now wow thats crazy but hy bro @L3ummy just dm me
Same
Can u use any crochet needle?
Honestly, it's better to just go with the twist/free-form method. It may lock instantly for now with the tool but a year or two down the line you'll notice the difference. Locs are like ropes (of hair) , if you keep poking holes in it to make em tighter, they'll be hallow, hard, and inconsistent in terms of thickness. I did it and regretted it big time so I'm semi-free forming now. But that's just my experience with it. Best of luck on y'all journeys which ever you do decide on.
does the size of the crochet hook matter
Your hair be looking hella nice in this vid 👌
I liked his dreads better
@@hirahx691 they were really nice
@@bongwater06 ikr i miss them lmao the color the texture all of it
I also post dread vids
Hi
What if you have short hair how would you do that
What about 2 strand twist
Why is he sitting in front of a green screen?
Blaik Alva lmao i didnt notice idk Why its just dumb
For better setup, duh. Why are you asking questions about green screens when the video is about dreadlocks?
Can you do it with a comb with the metal end
No because on the crochet needle there's a teeny tiny hook at the top where it pulls your hair through the lock. A comb won't have the hook so it wouldn't work.
Wow
Can u use a crotchet hook
idk bruh ive been thinking about starting dreads for a while but i think ill do twisting with gel
Dave Nero same
Don’t
Towel rub is the best for people with African hair, worked well for me
Jumpsuit Kinetic my hair texture doesn’t like the towel method so I’m croshe hooking
@@donnig5053 I think straight or wavy hair are best when crocheted, good luck
Can u use a crochet needle on two strand twists starter locs?
Yes
ok
How often can I crochet my started dreads
Only one time or youll break them off. After tgat just crochet new growth. Maybe every 4 weeks.
Bro you literally made this sane video sm times😂
Devin facts
What about starting with twist and rip and then using the needle?
Yes, you can do that!
@@greatlocs Thank you for your reply!
How can business tools

I have like 34 or 37 dreadlocks an I wanted my hair to look like Xs or jemi got soul when tied up but it seems like it may not look that full
thechozsen1 wait
Don’t cut them, the dread journey takes a lot of time but is Definitely worth it. Be patient my g
What makes it so bad my mom crochets lol. But anyway I’m thinking about growing out my hair so I can start. But it’d be a gigantic Afro with minimal twists. So how would I go from that? I do have a selfie from when I had the Afro.
DatBoyBreezi educate ur self on dreads
Is 0.5 a good needle to use for semi thick locks I don’t want them mad skinny?
Start off with a 1.00mm, 0.75mm then finish them off with a 0.6mm
Using all 3 makes the process easier
Can you do when your hair wet
Hey I wanted to go for a Odell Beckham kind of look, where he has mostly curls but a couple of dreads near the front. I was thinking about parting my hair and using a crochet needle to get the look, but I was also thinking maybe I just takena couple curls and crochet them. Would really like your input! Also I love your videos!
Is there a difference between crochet hook and a crotchet needle??
It’s actually the same thing
How long should we wait to wash our dreads after just starting them and then after the first wash?
Always wash them so they can lock up better. Your hair has to be clean to lock up
KGB Agent 114 like once a week?
I legit have the exact same curl type as u💀
Do you notice it's easier to use a crochet hook on someone else as opposed to yourself? I can't seem to get it right !
did you cut all your hair before it got curly(how it is in the video) again?
mayowa iyanda he combed his dreads out and trimmed them
mayowa iyanda trimming hair makes curls better

I started my locs almost 2 months ago with the traditional gel and twist comb coil method. My locs are mostly all budded up and some are almost fully locd but I do have some that are struggling. I think if I just did the crochet needle method it would help tremendously but I’m curious:
Does it really make it instantly ok to wash my hair once or twice a week like normal?
Do I get any shrinkage with it?
How long can I go before recommended to retwist while still in the starter stage?
There's a lol shrinkage and it is instant
Jumpsuit Kinetic so I can wash my hair weekly and it won’t undo the locs?
@@lamontmorgan99 not in my expirience, they go a bit fuzzy but stay in locs
Jumpsuit Kinetic ok, thank you for help
@@lamontmorgan99 no worries Im sure they'll look dope
Can i use this with straight hair? And dreadlock waterbased gel combo?

@@greatlocs i got more quistions

Jayson Team 😭😭
Dude, I asked the lady at the salon to start locks, and she said she would braid it first and after a couple of weeks she would continue the process, side note is that I can't wash it. A week is about to hit and I'm going wild on the itch, can I just stick a needle in this thing and just turn it into locks? I already lost 90 bucks in this process. HELP ME
(BTW my hair is a thick and heavy long curly hair)
Finessed yo ass just get someone who knows how to crochet needle
Does it work on straight hair?
YES 👍🏼
@@greatlocs ok thanks
Big fan btw
Ayeee
does crocheting make your starter locks thinner
Bruh don’t do it just let your starter locks go through the budding stage don’t thin them with the hook
Niceeee
🔥🔥🔥🔥
How can I make my dreads softer?

Takes on avg 3-6 months to start budding. Im a month in and my 2 strands are still babies
Yo man, I've recently got dreads in the last few days and am having some issues. They aren't very tight to the scalp and are quite loose all around each dread. Every time I retwist them though, it feels like I am un doing them. Have you got any advice?
They're really not made for your hair texture if you think about it.
Lee Johnson yeah but also dreads are used fur any hair texture even nappy gets faster dreading but straight can be dread if you don’t was your hair it dreads with any hair type so it is meant for any hair texture on certain hair texture it goes faster but that’s it
Lee Johnson they’re for everyone
