1. Don’t sleep without your durag/head covering 2. Focus on your scalp the first months, use tree oil/peppermint oil 3. DON’T SCRATCH YO HAIR 4. Wash it once a month, ideally two if you don’t want it to look rough for the first months. Depends on your hair texture as well . 5. Don’t dye your hair early
@@judgment5861 nothing if anything It’ll lock your hair faster bc when you die your hair it becomes more dead and what are dreads? dead hair combined 😉
@@judgment5861 facts i already had dyed hair before I started my free forms, about a month in i bleached them and a month after that I dyed it black. my locs look way more developed than the average 2 month starter locs
This is my 2nd journey with locz. My first journey lasted 7 years past the middle of my back. I’m on journey 2 at 7 months in. This time I won’t cut them. May I mention, I will be 51 this year.
I started again last October after cutting my old set after 8 years. I definitely won’t be cutting my hair again so I will be taking better care of this set
Iv grown my locs to my shoulders twice now.. All these do’s and don’ts I agree with 100% Damian is amazing he saved my locs the first time and retwisted them 2 more times after that. If you aren’t retwisting your own hair and you have someone else doing it for you PLS PLS PLSSSSS DO NOT LET JUST ANYONE PUT THEIR HANDS ON YOUR LOCS! Iv met a lot of people who have said they can do locs but couldn’t... Ask for a portfolio, verify before they do anything..
I love number 4. I had long beautiful locks and kept them for a long time. I started them when my pops was alive because they represented freedom. I had just went to college and mother didn't want me to have them. So when I moved out it was the first thing I did. My pops was my boxing trainer and loved them. They got long! REALLY long. He passed away in 2008 and a few years later I cut my locks for a fundraiser for a kid that had brain cancer. Long story short, after that ever time I tried to regrow my locks I kept cutting them over and over because then it was about the "style' where as the first time it was "spiritual". During this quarantine I put my locks back in... But this time it feels different. I'm ok with the 'rough' look because I feel my locks are a spiritual representation of my new knowledge... My "North Star" so to speak is closer to when I first had my locks rather than the image of it. Thank you for the great advice!!
Bro I’m so appreciative of your story and your willingness to share here. Hearing you cut your Locs for a kid with cancer is just so inspiring man! For humanity!! Gives me hope in the good of mankind. I’m sure your father was proude of the decision as well. ✊🏾Grateful for your support king! You got them hands tooo hahaha Boxing is on my to do list! I wanna learn...just don’t know if I’m coo with getting hit in the face lol
@@TPlocks bless brother. Thank you. It was a fundraiser for the kids at the Boys and Girls club lol all of us staff members offered to do something crazy for the kids for earning the most money in a milk jug. When I offered to cut my dreads...(my kids knew how much they meant to me) even parents lined up to donate haha. Thank you! It's been a long time since I have had the privilege of sharing! THANK YOU!! I feel what you mean though lol. Getting hit isn't the best. But, I'm sure a good coach would keep you from getting touched! Blessings and thanks for the amazing advice! Be blessed!!
quarantine had me starting my locs yesterday, hopefully they’ll be locd up when school start in august edit: currently 6 months in! nice to see all yall gettin locs too, i love it so far 🔥
It’s a great time to start!! If you’ve got a curly hair texture, that should be more than enough time to be locked! They may not be fully mature, but you should be able to wash and go no problem!
Facts my nigga i just got my hair first twisted yesterday cant wait till September niggas finna be like, TF🤣 lol females finna be comin left an right bruhbrih trust, aint like they already dont anyway🤔
I started my locs back in March sitting between my mama’s legs - at my big ass age of 20 - while she two strand twisted my hair 😂 no specific parting, no specific plan..just intuition. enjoying the journey though. it’s a roller coaster
Great delivery!!!! I didn't know what to expect. When you said "Don't number one" I ran to get my pen and note pad this is gonna be important. I'm on day three of my loc journey. Thanks for the North Star statement. I can keep my why front and center. Keep the videos coming. God bless!
@@LoveGod1987 it's worth it ngl my hair grew so much 😭2 months in almost 3 ima get a retwist next month instead of this month so my hairline can recover
I'm glad I clicked on this channel. it's amazingly detailed. this is my second month and I just relocked today. gosh, I dyed my hair same day I loc'd my hair. I wish I didn't though. now I know better. I wash once a month and condition once a month. you rock💓
Thank you so much for the tips. I start my locs tomorrow . I’ve been natural for 5 years but wear tons of protective styles. I’m on a new journey and super excited.
Welcome to the loc family! 🔥🔥 5 years natural deserves high praise!! Getting your Locs is an exciting time!!! Take plenty of pictures!!! You’ll enjoy this journey for sure! ✊🏾
i cant lie, youre one of the best loc teachers ive seen on youtube because you get right to the point of the question, no extra talk trying to fill content, its jus straight knowledge and cut.
When I first started my dreads no one told me about this, my head itched so bad 😭 but it got better. This will be my 4th year with them and I love them. I use tree oil to help with this
I started Oct 15th 2020 with 2 strand twist, I sprayed way too much rosewater & glycerin. Last week on the 17th I started over with starter locs. I know now to keep my hands out of my hair & just worry about the scalp. I love your videos! ❤
Great information, coming from a licensed cosmetologist, loc enthusiast, and going thru my own loc journey! I would add using a leave-in conditioner, or a spray conditioner, instead of a cream to help prevent the locs from slipping. Also, if you do have a hard time remembering your scarf at night is opting for a satin pillowcase. i started my locs on Jan 9
I’m glad this is out, since covid -19 I figured to finally get locs bc my loose natural hair is so much maintenance for me. I’m getting my starter locs tomorrow so I’m excited for my journey.
Thank you so much brother! This was so helpful. New dreadlock tribe started on jun 21 2024. Its only been a couple of days and ive been sleeping with my loc cap and my loctician told me to use small amouns of tea tree oils or peppermint like you said. But i really am doing this because of my spiritual faith of 7 years now. My north star is looking more like my scandanavian brothers and sisters. I am so honored and humbled that spirit chose this path for me. 😅 and damn do i look good. Almost like that new infant born baby coning outta that womb. The push was kina gross but when you put those locks in your fingers and not at the roots. I feel like its a hair garden. Gotta give the garden your nutrients when your gutt tell you too while the beginning days for me. Its saying leave me alone. So night caps and leaving them alone while the roots lock in. Love this video so much. 🎉
Absolutely wonderful. I am going to share this video with my daughter in NC. Very, very informative. I'm in the process of starting my locs again (long story). Thank you so much!!
I’ve been scratching like crazy. Lol 3 weeks in. It’s gonna be so hard to loc my hair because I don’t have the texture. My hair is more of a wave then a kink so I’m looking like a wild woman right now. I compare it to me growing into who I want to be. It starts out rough but eventually turns into something beautiful. Another awakening. Another transformation into another part of the journey. Can’t wait to see how they will look a year from now. Great video! I subscribed. 💙
Two months into my second set and it's way more pleasant than the first time around. My scalp was acting ALL the way up on my first set. Flakes would pop up three days after a wash. Not anymore though, and I haven't changed anything. It's weird, but it is what it is.
i started my first (and hopefully only) loc journey 2 days ago! i'm super excited and doing lots of research on how to care for them. I can't wait for my hair to really loc up.
Ay bruh this hella helpful. I literally just got my starter locs a week ago, and was doing every "DON'T" on your list smh. Even had a insightful message I hadn't thought about on why I wanted locs which gives them even more purpose. All much appreciated...🙏🏿🙏🏿
Started my loc journey 2 weeks ago. You are the first person I decided to follow! My take away are dont itch...one spot has been driving me crazy lately. Most importantly I love the find your north star point! Thanks a lot, and I will make sure to take pics.
Welcome to the loc family! 🔥🔥 and I’m glad you’re settling in to that love for them. Embrace every change with love and you’ll enjoy every step of the Journey. 🔥🔥
Thanks for the information. I just got my instant starter locs 2 weeks ago and I was just saying to someone that this part of the journey is killing me but I’m also enjoying it too
HI THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE ADVICE🙏🏽GOT MY FIRST LOCKS AT THE AGE OF 57. IT IS SCARY BUT EXCITING AT THE SAME TIME…ITS BEEN A SLOW PROCESS, I HAVE BEEN NATURAL( SHORT CUTS) FOR SEVERAL YEARS & NOW THIS. YOUR ADVICE WAS NOT ONLY GOOD BUT WISE TOO…I SHALL TAKE PICS & KNOW WHAT TO DO/AND NOT TO DO. THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE UK❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
Great video, I'm working on hair right now and your video is informative and the sound of your voice and the way u articulate your thoughts it's wonderful! Thank u 4 the tips! Can't wait to watch more!
Great video, yes Damian have awesome videos and I have been binge watching...this is my 2nd loc journey my first one was 14 years, they were sister ocks...now 5 years later, I'm 3days in traditional Locs...I knew some of these but scratching is my downfall so thanks for the reminder especially since I have very low density hair.
I locd up because I got tired of being so synthetic.... the pressure of having to be "beautiful" in a synthetic way... I am beautiful with these naps popping I did cheat though I got extensions buy hey im not perfect 🤷🏽♀️😂 esthetics at work are still a thing. I wish youtube let u upload pics in the comments.
@Emmanuel Bacher well it sure does take a whole lot of bad energy to call someone who you don't even know an idiot for exercising their right to do whatever they want to THEIR own hair just saying 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
i started my locs about 3 weeks ago. i haven’t washed it yet but i’m about to soon. i gave a habit of touching my head but not scratching. at first i hated the frizz but i love it now!
I'm officially two weeks into my loc journey. I did the instant loc method with the crochet needle all by myself within hours and it has turned out great so far. I hope the rest of my loc journey goes well. Pray for me lol 🙏🏾♥️😄 Also, thank you for all the helpful tips and stay blessed 💪🏾♥️👍🏾💯
I started a month ago. This was helpful because I panicked a week ago cause my hair looked like it was coming undone. But my Loctician told me to trust the process and my hair was ok.
Thank you so much for this in-depth video and getting right to the point not to say that other outlets of information from other UA-camrs haven't been helpful for me but I have to say I love when people like you just jump right into the video get to the point bada bing bada boom
Good morning I’m starting my journey today 2/13. I typed in how to maintain starter locs and want to thank you for taking time out to explain. After listening to you I had to subscribe. Looking forward for more advice thank you
TP locks Possibly. You know you’re keeping it real when you get that thumbs down 😂 It could also just be a hater. Just think of it as another 👍🏾 because you made h*ll out of this video and everybody knows it 🙂
pstreet3 welcome to the loc family! It try to keep the posts consistent on my channel and I’m always around so if you ever have any question feel free to reach out! ✊🏾😊
This is probably one of the best videos I've seen since starting my journey. I'm about 4 months in my journey. Trying to learn how to do my retwist myself so I can save some money lol. I'm so nervous.
Thankyou so much for uploading this video. I'm horrific for scratching, and I've fallen into frizzy starters and in trying to combat how to fix this before things get worse. There's been so many conflicting advice and it's really tough to know where to start especially as my hair is super dry!! So thankyou, thankyou, thankyou for this clear, concise advice!! 🥰
I’ve been contemplating getting locs. I did for lox hair styles previously and I really loved how it looked. Now I am officially ready to loc my hair plus I’m tired of doing my natural hair every morning. I don’t got time for that lol.
I'm mad, who are the people who gives thumbs down 😤. With that said... Thanks man!!! You are giving me life with your tips and you are very entertaining and easy to listen.
I’m glad I could help bro! As for the dislikes it’s all apart of the game! I want folks to rock with me BUT I can’t stress on the ones who don’t! All my care is saved up for the people who show love! Thanks for supporting the channel!!! 🙏🏾

TP locks Thanks You The Goat
Thanks for your help & guidance man! Your pointers are definitely going to get me the LOCS I want!
i started my locs today and this video was so informative and helpful. so excited for this journey ❤️
I started a month ago. This was helpful because I panicked a week ago cause my hair looked like it was coming undone. But my Loctician told me to trust the process and my hair was ok.
1 month today! I scratched my scalp and got weak in the knees it felt so good! But I promise I’ll stop. Thanks for the tips
Thank you so much for this in-depth video and getting right to the point not to say that other outlets of information from other UA-camrs haven't been helpful for me but I have to say I love when people like you just jump right into the video get to the point bada bing bada boom
Great vid! 3 weeks loc'd, after years of debating. Looking forward to the journey.
Thank you for these tips. I'm on day #2 and this video was very helpful.
The child analogy was good. Let them mature before you introduce them to tattoos (ink dye), piercings (loc beads), and alcohol (alcohol based washes)
Been having locs for about 2 months now and they're coming out great. 🔥🔥

Nice video, sir! I like how you organized it. I also like how you tackled the "controversial" topics. That's the way to do it, full steam ahead! :)

This is probably one of the best videos I've seen since starting my journey. I'm about 4 months in my journey. Trying to learn how to do my retwist myself so I can save some money lol. I'm so nervous.
Thankyou so much for uploading this video. I'm horrific for scratching, and I've fallen into frizzy starters and in trying to combat how to fix this before things get worse. There's been so many conflicting advice and it's really tough to know where to start especially as my hair is super dry!! So thankyou, thankyou, thankyou for this clear, concise advice!! 🥰

Just starting my journey will be a week Friday and I enjoyed the video and appreciate all the great advice and tips keep on doing a great job
