Thanks dude. I’m glad I read this
@@simstander5471 np just tryna spread some kindness during this crazy time
You too man. 2020 kicked our asses, but hopefully the worst of it has already passed. We can only go up from here. Y’all stay safe.
@@corey1854 amen to that
Thank you for this 🙏🏿
Basically, Bonnet for the day at home and Durags for the night when you sleep to hold in those locks or twists. But it can go both ways depends on your preference and style.
Thx bro u really helped
4:38 "ion be having no shame fr" 😂😂 big steppa💯
I hate racism white people associate durags and bonnets with negativity cause of imbedded racism but y’all just takin care of ya hair
shut up eric and watch the video
K1N6 L1MBER bro chill he was just stating his opinion and his feelings
PRiNCE TNC don’t waste ya time on him lol he clearly ain’t get the point of my comment
You don’t know that. Everyone I hv ever run into hates Racism and I’m no spring chicken. That’s a big generalization to make-not fair and insults everyone.
fax
I like that he talks about himself n his experiences n not saying “it’s gonna happen to all of you”
I usually don't mind my frizz for the most part but there are times when it gets a little beastie so I will definitely invest in a soft brush for those times when I want my Locs a bit more manicured. Thanks for the tip 😀
Tbh my curl pattern was so tight prior to dyeing my tips I hardly had any frizz. That all changed after that dye. The ends were so frizzy and damaged I had to do something. Lol Had I it made that mistake I’d definitely let it just do its thang!
Thanks for the video. Also, loving the Devin Morrison playin in the background!! 🔥🔥
He’s doooooope!
Ok! Devin Morrison in the background! You know music, my guy! 🔥🔥 dope vid
I started wearing my durag over my bonnet, because with the bonnet my locs would be all over the place. However with the durag my hair would be laid lol and I still have moisture.. It's the total opposite with me.
It’s great you found that perfect balance for you though! I have a big head so my bonnet is filled up haha
I do the opposite
Over or under
i never knew that about brushing dreads, goat 🙏🏿
You literally just made me go to the beauty supply and got a durag 💯
Hello, Me
I'm in my loc stage ,this was helpful
Thank you for this video....I'm just getting started with locks and I was wondering should I switch to a durag. Keep us posted on your journey and the pro/ cons of the lock life🤩💯💪
I’ll definitely keep you posted. Try my best to post weekly. ✊🏾 if you’re documenting your journey I’d love to see your Locs as well!!!
I’m with you @sherina grandy starting with locs but when I removed my durag the end of my locs was curling and not laying flat like they was when I first got them done.. @tp locks after watching your video imma try the durag and bonnet to see if it goes back flat
Dope bro starting my loc journey thanks
You are awesome I had no idea what the other one was for
I really appreciate this video.
you talking about durags made me wanna put on mine
😂😂
Durags for me kept falling off when I went to sleep also but having it tight was kinda irritating but I’d rather bonnet but during the day Durags all the way
Facts
Best thing to use is the loc sock durags slips off at night sometimes n bonnets have ur locs all over the place in the bonnet ill recommend the loc sock
Good vid I got backcombs alot of good info
My locs get SUPER frizzy and i swear i tried a new method every week to train my hair. Thanks to your video I've discovered nothing works better than an oil, soft bristle brush and a du tag/satin scarf combo. Thanks for the tips...especially on the brush. Im a yr into my journey and have just rediscovered how to use a brush! 🤯
I’m so happy I could help! And I know how you feel. I’m only a few months deeper into my journey than you and I still feel like I’m learning everyday! Thanks for the comment! 🙏🏾
I'm in love with locs. I feel like it's the end goal with having natural hair in life.
I wear a durag and my locs are squished down and I have to mess with them a bunch to get them back to normal but when I wear a bonnet my locs are less squished but they can sometimes be all over the place and idk i don’t like either option but I have to use one
My favorite hat astheticly for black fashion is a béret, but they're probably not very practical unless you want a more natural look, which I personally prefer. If I were black I would love to grow a giant afro.
am I the only one that just wear both 🤣
I go with a stocking cap and satin cap
Nope, I wear them at the same time. But there's a point where when they get longer that you have to use just a bonnet or a headscarf
Bonnet over durag shits more comfortable 😂 and gives a fuck of what they say
That's what I was thinking LOL
I wear both, and sleep on a Satin pillowcase. Thank you my brother,
As a glasses wearer, you had me shook when you sprayed the oil in your hair without removing them first. 💀
Anyone can use a brush on the sides to make sure they look nice like if you have a box cut braid thing or box cut dreads
Put the durag over the bonnet but just a silk durag. The durags with the velvet is really thick open the straps and flatten the straps and u wont get the black line no matter how much u wear it. Brush king has the best soft brushes for laying down frizz and distributing the natural oil to polish the hair
Just did this! Thank u
I love the bonnet
I had to switch to a bonnet bc I was tying my durag like a crackhead
😂😂
durags will always be my go to at any time.
Dope video and insight! I’m a year and some months in and def needed this. 💯 Btw, what song is this playing in the background!? 👀🔥
Would I be able to put a wig cap on and put a bonnet over the wig cap ? Just in case if you have those dresses that are sticking up?
Appreciate this and thank you, Bonnet is here to stay 😎MUUAHAAHHAAHAHAAAAAA
Broo I rock wig caps
I wear both also. , thank you.
I wonder if you watched your video before posting, because you got most of that spray on the walls 😂 I know the struggle, because sometimes I do my hair on the couch just to realize that I sprayed the couch with leave in conditioner 😂😂😂
Thanks brother I'll try the bonnet soon
Any time! Glad I could help!
How many months in should I wear a wig cap I started mine with twist almost 5 months but I interlocked them 4 weeks ago
Bro, you got to share the link for the bonnet.
I don’t like the way my hair touches my face and the back of my neck when I use the Durag at night. Can I use a bonnet seeing as it covers the whole hair ? I have long ass twists on by the way.
Well I'm freeforming and started recently so hair isn't too long, (four weeks in in 2 days) and I have both but I don't really know what to use (4c hair)
Can I get a link for the bonnet?
Thanks for this info!!! My scalp hurts after sleeping in a dhurag -must be the compression like you said I have long 2B-2C fragile, mature hair, and a super dry scalp. Trying to find the right option to prevent hair fall. Sleeping with it on top of head though in a cap might hurt too-stress on roots. If you could help me with ideas, it would be great! Thanks & now subbed!
Try a silk cap/beanie. It’s a healthy medium between a durag and a bonnet.
@@justinresil3205 thank you!
why would you need a durag? lmao
prob cuz ur hair doesnt need a durag or bonnet if you have 2b hair
Maybe because you ‘re wearing them with 2B hair
i sleep so wild that my durag usually comes off lol. but i'm having luck with a skull cap with the elastic band. this is my second go with locs so i'm trying to do them the right way.
Everything on my head comes off😂
They both great but yall sleeping on stock/wave caps😭😭💯
This is good bc bonnets make me have shrinkage but I didn’t know if you supposed to use durags
Use a silk durag to keep the moisture
Facts!
I wear a Durag outside and a bonnet or pillow case to sleep lol
Dreadsock works good too.
So does the velvet side go up?
I’ve been wearin a durag wrong this whole time? I thought that line in the middle was supposed to be on the inside..
Do u have to Tie your hair or just put the bonnet
What’s the point of wearing both??
My shit friz up in the next 2 days after a twist
Nah Dead Ass I thought I was the only one lol smh.. I’m definitely trying to change that tho
It’s normal
How do y'all protect your fros? I shouldn't have cut my dreads, my fro is high maintenance
😂 honestly a bonnet , it'll keep your hair from being so dry when you wake up so you can comb it back into place easier and don't have to worry about breakage . That's the only way I know , I stopped waving and let my hair grow
Keep being a pro
Gotta get a silky durag for dreads
Both AND a sleeping cap
What should I use to wrap starter locs? Is a Durag ok for that?
Yes
Hey looking for advice.. after wearing my durag at night it makes my twists laid down. I try to not tie it too tightly and still it does lay my twists down and kinda shrink s them. Is there any way or something to do when you remove it to make them "unshrink" sort to speak? Thanks!
I have same problem what can I do
@@Sk.ldn13 yo bro I think I might have the solution!!! I tried out these "Stay on satin anti-breakage bonnet" by www.stayonsatin.com and they are legit !! First of all the fabric covering your hair is super light and thin plus super loose so NO pressure is applied on your hair, all pressure is on your forehead so expect some marks on your forehead when you wake up though 😅. After one night of sleep since retwisting my hair yesterday, I can definitely say that my hair has remained more fresh than when I used to wear the durag. Definitely will be wearing these for sleep over durags as of now. The one i copped at my local african beauty store looked like this one : www.houseofbeautyworld.com/stonsaedbo76.html?country=CAD&usd=1.32712&price=3.92&gclid=Cj0KCQjwhvf6BRCkARIsAGl1GGiBVpyJu5HazApqgiNdluPJGU-IN_N7AyFlKKazICVkXPWMjQEN_aoaAgZfEALw_wcB
Anyways for me team bonnet from now on!
I have the same problem
Omg... you are handsome, and have a gorgeous smile.
I appreciate the compliment. I’m actually about 10-15 pounds outta shape so this compliment definitely helps me not feels so tubby! 😅
Where to you stand on silk scarf?
where u get that bonnet?
Bruh I’m just a white dude looking for something to protect my long ass hair while I’m sleeping, I don’t even have dreads or locs, just curls. While I didn’t find what I was looking for, I did learn about durags, and you can imagine how exciting that was for me being that I am as white as they come. In total: 9/10
Sucks that white people aren’t as open to stuff like this for dudes. Y’all stay safe.
Michael O I don’t think that’s how it works
Young Apollo yeah, it’s more about the structure of the shaft itself, but hey, he’s got a point though, it does grow down.
Corey Webb wouldn't bonnets be better for you since you could put all of your hair into it?
shy yeah, that’s what I ended up doing
Michael O facts I’m kinda woke and know some knowledge about things dat people would find crazy
Idk but the way he talks reminds me of 21 savage
“That my cuhn ” 😂😂
I know this video is three years old, but I still want to comment. I might need to buy a durag. I’m four months in…
Can u wear a boo boo cap with dreads?
Where can I get that type of Durag?
im starting out my dread again for the second time but im doing them with a hair spung ir just flattens my hair complety is that ok??
Depending on your texture sponge may not be the best method!
@@TPlocks I would say I’m a solid 4C
What do y’all do about the line for the back of your head with the durag on? I feel like my locs get matted down in the back by the strap. 😔
I got a big head so usually just tying it loose helps me out. My hook in the back keeps the durag from coming off lol
Anyone know what the music in the background is?
I personally prefer a bonnet
What I do is I but my durag on then but my bonnet over it
I use the bonnet having something tight on your head everyday is not comfortable
Where did you buy the bonnet bro?
I got the black one at Sally’s if I’m not mistaken. They sell one like this at my Walmart as well. ✊🏾
Depends on the bonnet tbh
My stylist won't tell me hair products to use on my scalp because she's scared I'll leave her. What's good for a scalp that gets a lot of dandruff because I work and sweat a lot. And how often should I apply it to my scalp? Just got my first retwist today after having them for 2.5 weeks so far
We need an answer please
Trial and error. You have to test many different oils to find what works for you
Sorry it's late but As I Am has an olive and tea tree oil specifically for dandruff. I'm going to get a bonnet and skull cap since du rags really dry my hair out. There's no build up with the product at all and I am dandruff free.
@ASPEAKINGENIGMA what's your hair type?
@@longer12 I'm not sure maybe 4a or 4b. Possibly 3c
Will a slik durag work too
Now when u do the lil wash wit the durag or whatev, after u dry ya hair and shi do u really need to give yaself a lil retwist for the roots, not nun all big like a full retwist but i small one, u have to? Btw im bout to be 9 months in next weekend so my locs are damner locked.
Jazel Hopkins eventually I got to a space where I did not twist after the wash. I’d just separate the parts and keep it going! I wanted to minimize the stress With as few retwists as possible. It all
Depends on how you feel your hair is responding. At the time, I took that approach because I was retwisting every two weeks and started to experience thinning 🤯
Jazel Hopkins congrats on your 9 months! I’ll go check your channel if you’ve got vids I’ll subscribe!!
@@TPlocks thank you so much, im just soo happy u replied back as quick as u do cuz i was sitting here debatting wether i wanted to do this or not cuz i was bout to get in the shower, but now i feel more confident, and thanks, im so hype for this retwist, had decided to wait two months so i got two months worth of new growth sitting on my head, and i still got a week left so i can still get a lil more growth.
@@TPlocks also how should i rinse out the shampoo im using?
Jazel Hopkins at the 9 month mark I was able to just wash and rinse without using the durag. It made my hair look rough but as long as the locs/parts didn’t come allll the way out I was able to wash rinse and dry np. I’d retwist shortly after. (One twist a month) That’s one of the toughest things to overcome in the early stages. Embracing the look after a wash without a retwist.. hope my answers are making sense. Lol
i'm wearing a bonnet rn
I dont even have enough hair to do dreads, twists, or just...anything with my hair
Real question which Durag is better. Silk or velvet when u have twists or braids in
Always a silky , lays frizz down and locks moisture in
Can you do A tutorial on how to tie a Durags easier
You gotta spend some time in the mirror for that one ..Fareal
Just go UA-cam it just like how u UA-cam this vid...
If I have curls what do u recommend durag or bonnet
Bonnet so your curls won't be super matted on your head
do a video on how to protect your locs in a fist fight bro.?
This is the dopest idea I’ve seen this week! 😂😂😂
@@TPlocks lol hell yeah fr fr
i have a cousin that always tell me boooy you'll have 1 dread left
Men don’t grab hair tho ..?
@@KirigayaMarc shiiiid you never know everyone don't think like that. i have a cousin he said he'll leave a nigga with 1 dread loc
What is the name of this background music?
Devin Morrison - Love
but i feel like it will mess up my box braids
Great way to describe something being soft on camera lol
I just started my journey yesterday and I’ve actually been wearing a durag all day is it bad? Should you let yo ur hair breathe during the day and only wear the durag at night?
I would let it breathe during the day and start ragging up in the night
U aint need to keep it in all day, wear it after u use oil and youve showered up and wear it at night
Bonnet click
🤔👏🏽👏🏽
What’s the song ?? ❤
What do you think about scarfs?
Scarfs are a go! They’re a lot like satin caps texture wise! I just can’t pull it off haha
TP locks how about polyester wave caps?
I heard Durags thin out your hair ?
They can cause traction Alopecia for sure. But that’s mainly when they’re too tight!
TP locks hey I’m growing my curls out...would u recommend a bonnet when I sleep or durag?
Doe Doe Bird bonnet
Do shower caps work the same as bonnets?
No bonnets are silk or satin, it's to protect your hair from breakage, a shower cap just keeps it dry
Boi I thought this was nick cannon 😂
Is that a velvet or satin
The durag is velvet! ✊🏾
So if I plan on getting high top dread locs, when I get my comb coils is it best to wear a durag or the bonnet?
After having hightop locs for 7 months, I would stay its best to wear a durag. Mainly because you can lay it down how you want it. A bonnet it’s better if your at least 10 months or a year in your dread journey. However the durag doesn’t moisture your hair as much a bonnet does, so before you go bed put some oil in your head
Bonnets much better
Agreed!
