Did my girl Tay dirty with the thumbnail😭😭
She looked like a Cynthia doll from rugrats 🤣
I know 😂smh
@@RJ_Barricade LMFAOOO
😂
Whose the second girl
It took me SEVEN 16 hour days to install 365 micro locs. If I ever feel the urge to comb them out I will slap on a wig in a heartbeat lol They will remain until I die😂
I know that’s right😭😭
😂😂😂
I'd love to see a picture of your hard word! I put dreads in not to long ago and it was ALOT of work. I bet your hair looks beautiful 😍
We understand 😂
Or just cut your hair and start over.
I’ve had my sisterlocs for 16 YEARS going on 17 this year. I only had the urge to comb out my locs ONCE due to hair loss. But instead of combining them out or taking them out, I just got them cut into a really cute loc Bob and I’m so happy with that decision. My locs are down my back again and way healthier. #loc’d4life
Combing my 4-year locs dry worked better for me too. Used a thick metal needle to comb out. Restarted another journey 2 mths afterwards. I had just missed my afro but couldn't keep up the maintenance any much longer. Loc still win!
Did u notice ur hair longer when u combed it out?
@@berthaochieng7184 Yes, but I still trimmed it quite a bit to
I actually combed out all my dreads a few months ago so I could split each dread into 2. Went from 41 dreads to 82 and it took me about 2-3 months 😭
I basically did the same and I got 1 word to describe it... PAIN
@@Stophatingalready HONESTLY! Props to all the locticians that be crocheting peoples hair 6-8 hours everyday! Cause my hands, arms, and shoulders would get so sore after each sesh 🤕and can't forget the fact that I would also stab my finger a few times by accident lol
I had 108. Mine took a day
@@nahbro9735 what that’s crazy! 😯 mine took so long cause my dreads were already starting to mature during the time 😵💫
Same
I've never had the urge ever to cut/comb them out I was curious to see people's reactions, I've had my locs 2.5 years, The alternative is wigs, loose natural etc, I don't have the time,energy, money for that. Locs bring me peace
I'm right there with you. Wigs are my go-to when I can't be bothered, bt no way am I ever combing out my locs because in the end they're my "forever style". I'm finna die with locs down to my knees sis! 💀
As a professional hairdresser I have to mention, you can go back to black after bleaching hair, you need to dye your hair red first before you apply the black dye. The reason for this is because all hair has 2 melanins called eumelanin (Blue, purple, cold pigments) and pheomelanin (red, orange, yellow, warm pigments) and so when you do have bleached hair and then go straight for dying it black you're missing a lot of warm pigment in black hair so it ends up coming off as blue or green. I can get more into detail about it but that's essentially the gist of it, sometimes this method is called "prepping" the hair. This doesn't just apply to black dyes, whenever you want to go darker, always add varying degrees of red, if you want to go from blonde to medium brown, add some less intense red pigment like a pastel red (heavily diluted), if you wanna go black, add straight up red dye before the black.
My big sister picked out her locks with a thumbtack. She's claims she used a thumbtack only, but we think a comb was involved.
Anyway I think it took her a few days to do. She didn't show us the final result until it was done & she washed it up and stuff.
The locs did her justice though, because her hair was long ASF.
But over time she got over it and chopped it off, she's the type to never keep a style for more than a month.
She is now a licensed Cosmetologist with her own business. 🤷🏾♀️
So it can be done. Just gotta have time and patience
That thumbtack had to have ripped through her hair lol
I can see that working, I've never used a tack, but I have used pointy things to get in between because I personally prefer to use my hands only when possible. I got weak hair, if I tried to just comb it, I'd probably be bald😂
I like that u said big sister instead of older sister. I'm the eldest child of 3 and I think it's cute.
I took mine out it took about two days but it had to remain saturated and you have to take your time
when I did this it took 8 hrs and it hurt so bad, but having more knowledge abt your locs when you start over is very rewarding
Always was fascinated by watching people comb out their locs. I considered doing the same, but with 9 years of growth (down to my butt), I opted to just cut them off. Definitely enjoying my fro. Not missing them (yet)!
Whaaaa?? Why?! I'm trying to get to where you were! Were they too heavy or too hard to wash?
@@karmakameleon113 it was time to let them go; I needed to release old energy as I entered into a new phase of my life. I might start a new set next year.
@@lifemantratarot Ok, I feel that. I just subbed to your channel, btw. You're doing good for the people out here!
@karmakameleon113 thank you! I greatly appreciate the support!
Locs are so versatile. You literally have a hairstyle absolutely ready from morning to night and it stays in place it looks cool and cute, boys with long medium dreads look gorgeous imo
I combed mine out. Felt like I wanted a change just to only get locs again 😭 I regretted it because I felt like I had a special connection with my first set that I haven’t felt for my new one.
Hair is like an antenna that carry energy... especially around your temples.
I had my locs for 1 year and they were microlocks. Took me 10 days. Beauty of it, my hair is thick, long, and full!!
It took me 11 days to comb 3-4 year locks, was better dry… I missed my big curly hair. My locks were thick and dense and fell flat
Having dreads have made me a much more confident and aware individual, I cannot imagine combing out my dreads😢 as soon as I’d have to comb my loose hair again after 2.5 years of not doing that, I’ll cry
Also for the girl with the blonde locs… she should’ve canceled her yellow tone out with RED before going straight to black… this will help get rid of the green hues!
I've had mine for 18 years and combing is not an option. I started mine, back when you were pretty much committed to going dread 'til ya dead. 💯
😂 😂 😂
Well at this point it's pretty much impossible for you to comb it out
I cut mine last year after year 20 and it feels good to be able to wash and dry my hair in so much less time.
Exactly! If I want to switch up my hairstyle I'll just throw on a wig
I started my own locs. Got mad at them because I didn’t think they were forming right. Combed them out after a couple of months so it only took about half a day. Then I let a professional restart them and I’ve been rocking locs every since
😮For her to cut her locs out just to throw in some braids!! Im shook!! I could never!!
Now shes having to buy hair possibly pay someone to do it.. Make it make sense!!
I chopped off my locks and then instantly regretted it so I braided what remained on my head to make myself feel better. 😂😂 I genuinely felt pain
@@nndlovu1878 oh bless you! So sorry you had to experience that! 😖❤️
@Elisia's Evolution she wanted a different hairstyle, that's it lol not everything is about convenience
@@fortunamajor7239 if she's happy to waste money,if she likes it I love it!!
I chose to comb out the last set due to the damage interlocking did and I started the next set after a few weeks with coils…I spent a couple weekends and some weeknights doing it but no regrets because this set has proven to be healthier and worthwhile…keep it loc’d…
It is a big decision. I cried, but I also felt they needed to come out. They hold alot spiritually as well. When I combed mine out after 2 years. I felt a big relief, I felt free. I felt a big weight was lifted. As I said they hold a lot spiritually. I def cried before I made the decision. I cried during the process but was happy in the end. I felt better. It does take a long time to comb out.
What kind of spirituality
What spiritual stuff, this is the second time that I've heard this
@@ms_u.c.loveth if you don't know you'll never know
@@Im.A.Potatoe then keep it to yaselves
@@Im.A.Potatoe facts lol. Their loss
I cant explain how much I've missed my locs since I combed them out last year
I think we need to remember that locs or not, we always have days and phases where our hair is just annoying us or not cooperating. We just need to be think thoroughly about our next steps. 😅
I had locs for two years, at 16 my dad told me there's a job opportunity for me but I'd have to remove them first. After I took them out, lost 5 inches of length and was back to my natural hair. He told me that it was for 18+, sorry.
I've been debating going back almost once a month since. I loved them, but I also love the freedom to do whatever I want to my hair. I'm thinking of making a secret loc behind my ear!
He might’ve did that on purpose
@@maybeitsmattie3751 Ha! That was the first thing I thought too.
I don't know where you live but in my state, employers aren't allowed to ask/tell people to change their look. If the job has a uniform then obviously you have to wear it, but you can still do whatever you want with your hair and face (for example, if you have facial piercings you can leave them in and your job can't say anything about it as long as you're in your uniform). If it's a job where you have to wear a helmet, hard hat or other protective equipment, all you have to worry about is that your hairstyle comfortably fits under the hat/helmet/whatever... I think your dad was trolling you. lol
Thank you for including me in your video! I had around 500+ in total before starting the combing out process and it was a challenge for real! 😂
It looks like a challenge, your locs were so beautiful long and small. I can only imagine pulling out so much! You were dedicated!
Were you in the third segment? loved your look after you cut them as well as with your locs!!!
I have cut my locs four times because i have tricholilomania, but i do miss it at times...
I was one who trimmed them first before cutting as well, it is easier that way, methinks...
@@fedoramcclaren4294 I was the last one. And I’m sorry about that ! 💗
@@mahoganiej
I thank you kindly dear, and yes, you looked stunning with both styles!!!... 💜
Many years ago I combed out my locs and it literally took me two months to get each and every loc unraveled. My hair was about 18" long, some were longer, some shorter so I cut them off to 10" before I started taking them down. I picked at the ends and used baking soda water to break down the buildup. I had a beautiful head of hair afterwards and was very happy with the results.
Ughhhh I have mine for 17 years now and ready to comb mine out
@@QueenSoulSista yo I got mine like months ago 🤣💀 making me feel small ash lmaooo
@@SmADdi4u stay committed
Please make a video of you taking them out
never saw Gunther laugh so much.. Tay is hilarious tho
I have very long 11 year old locs. Never had any desire to comb them out. Before my locs, I had a Foxy Brown BAA. I am definitely locked for life. They are easy maintenance and I always get compliments on them. 😃
2022 was the year I realised you could comb dreads out. When I had mine more than 20 years ago, I just shaved it all off.
You're a badass ❤❤❤
I don't think I will ever comb out my locs. I would likely cut them and start over or reinstall at another time. I can't imagine going back to combing and style my hair. I've never liked doing it since I was a child. My scalp is super sensitive.
So Dreads are actually really better for scalp?
I have issues with mine too and thought I was imagining things, when I stopped combing my hair and thought: huh, why is my scalp less itchy and irritated?
13 YEARS LATER I'M SO GLAD THAT I NEVER WENT THROUGH WITH THIS
I TRIED to comb mine out after about maybe 8 years, gave up & grab the scissors real quick. 😅🤣
😂
i combed my locs out two years ago and it’s the best decision i’ve ever made. But with this process you have to be patient. You have to use a rat tail comb and water and conditioner ( A LOT ). It took me 8 days also.
I combed mine out summer of 2014/15? Water conditioner mix and a rat tail comb. Took a month and that fro looked so good and kinky 😍 loccing my hair up again I’m so excited
I did it and I’m currently in the process to restart my loc process. My hair is too thick and I don’t want to fight with it. Reminded me all too well why I loc’d my hair in the first place. Lesson learned.
There's a technique for taking blonde hair back to light brown, med brown, and dark brown, etc. The trick is filling the hair shaft with another color first. It sounds crazy, but it prevents your hair from turning greenish or blueish brown. When you bleach hair, you're leaving the shaft hollow from pulling the pigment out. You need to refill the shaft with a base color before going brown. At least that's how it was explained to me when I made that exact mistake and ended up with greenish brown hair. It was heartbreaking to see my hair like that. Lesson learned. Years later when I decided to go from blonde back to light brown I did it correctly. The color was a beautiful light brown.
The process of going dark brown from blonde requires that you dye the blonde hair RED first.
Yes, red.
If you're going light brown use a golden or light auburn color.
It fills the shaft with a base color for the brown to lay on.
First you dye with the filler color, rinse, and dry. Second you apply the brown color of your choice over the red/golden/auburn color.
I promise, it works.
Anyone who needed this information..
You're welcome and happy hair coloring!
Ps: Brad Mondo has some great videos explaining the mechanics in detail on his UA-cam. There's also great articles online by searching Google.
I don't know who you are but you're doing the Lord's work with this comment. Let the people know! I do hair consultations and let me tell you (although you already know haha)- the amount of people who've messed up their hair through DIY coloring is insane.
@@karmakameleon113 Unfortunately I'm one of those hair disaster stories. Lesson learned a little late, but better late than never. I don't wish my hair disaster on anyone. It looked brown in low light, but in the sun in looked this sickly, nasty, greenish color. What a nightmare! I paid big $$ to a colorist to get it fixed. Thankfully this wonderful professional explained everything I did wrong & how to avoid this happening in the future. It worked beautifully too when I finally felt comfortable doing my own hair years & years later. Best of luck to those brave enough to experiment on their hair. Sometimes it's a wonderful experience, sometimes you end up with muddy, green, ugly, splotchy hair. If you are left with any hair at all! Oh boy, I've seen that too. Watched a close friend ignore my advice & TRIPLE PROCESSED her already damaged hair. Total ramen noodles for hair. Falling out everywhere. It's a science & an art. Sometimes ppl forget that.
I cut mine because I lost one and saw how much build up and instantly wanted to cut em and start over.
@Cameo I was putting too many products in my hair and not cleansing my hair correctly
I appreciate the look bruh fr 🙏🏾‼️
I’ve done it, best decision ever cuz I have started them over and now I love them even more ❤
I definitely combed my hair out dry. It was way more easier than wet. It took me 4 days to take out 43 locs. Now I’m 8 months locd again
im obsessed with his hair, if I would have locs like that I would make that life-long commitment
Me too, his look light and fluffy
I had mine from when I was 5-about 14 when I went to HS. They were mid back length. I tried combing them out first but then I realized how much hair I was losing and cut them to about that point then finished. With the help of my sister it took about a week of constant work, a rat tail comb, and VO5 conditioner! I’ll loc back up when I get older but I enjoy the versatility I have for right now.
My parents loc my hair as a baby and I combed it out when I turned 18, took me 1 whole yr and got really short… I’m 26 now and my natural hair is under my boob now, never went bk to locs and I’m happy with that❤
I’m white. Never had dreads. Never will. (Don’t know if it’s even possible lol) But it was soooo satisfying to watch. All people in this video have such cool hairstyles.
It is possible it's literally just matted hair in different sections and styles it'll just take longer for you since you have fine hair but it can be done. Ive seen many white guys with locs.
@@Im.A.Potatoe Oh thank you for clarifying. But I think when you try to comb it out they will break much much more than thick hair?!
Don't get them, it don't look right. Don't care how it's done.
@@nishiaboo7583 bruh 🤦🏾♂️
@@Pissbaby991 just being honest. It doesn't. 🤣
"Goldie Locks" was Adorable and Hilarious 😂 Love her ❤️ !!!
I had locs for 9 years then I combed them out. I had 120 locs it took me a month. PROCESS: I cut the ends off. I used a conditioner and water mix. I dipped my loc into the water mixture, squeezed out the excess water and used a rat tail comb (the one with the metal at the end) and took my time to detangle my hair. My hair was bra strap length after I was finished. Just take your time. I still have my hair so if I decide to loc it back I will use my own hair to do it.
I’ve had my locs for 14 years never thought about cutting them off, I don’t think I ever will at this point.
I cut and combed my locs 5 years ago and it was a very heartbreaking decision. Unfortunately, they were simply too heavy and long for my head (they were down to my waist). I have rocked my natural type 3a/b hair even since, but damn i miss my locs! Might consider getting them again some day..
Oh man not to cook sis, i immediately though of the angelica doll from rugrats😂😂😂
My sister combed her locs out and it took her a few days. Hers were long but, she still had soo much hair on her head afterwards.
I never knew you could comb your locs out. With that being said, I’m dying with my locs.
I did it few years ago. I had to use a pastry fork because i broke 3 combs on the process. My head was horrible after that and my natural curl never recovered, it looked like steelwool, so a year later I cut my hair so short to let it grow healthy.
THe girly with the blonde tips is so freaking PRETTY omg
I had the thought of doing it.
BUT i realized i only wanted to do that bc i had writers block. So i stopped working on the book i was working on. Finished writing a children’s book and interlocked my hair lol.
Sorry for this being so long winded
You felt that cutting ur hair would bring forth new creativity?
@@woodenxyz8688 lol no. But doing something different or drastic with my hair has been my go to when i either feel out of control or need clarity.. Ig in a way yeah 🤦🏽♀️
@@woodenxyz8688 see when you say it out loud it sounds very silly
@@nytashakay8994 it may sound a bit silly but I understand, sometime it takes a big change to clear ones mind, most people are scared of change, so to have done it many time over, I give you props.
@@woodenxyz8688 lol well thanks. It helps most of the time. Though I’m trying to get out of being that drastic
5:48 I’m from south Florida and back in middle school like 2006-2009 the original “wicks “ was what she got on her head no cap .. looks 🔥🔥🔥
I combed mines out in one day 🙌🏾🙌🏾 I started mines myself and I didn’t have any clean/straight parts 🤦🏾♀️ I started my loc journey in May..I was 8 months in but imma get them re-started by someone else..I also wanted mines to be a lil bigger than what i had
I combed all my locs out a around Christmas 2021. I had 200 locs, they had been in for over 2 years, and it took me 1-2 hours per loc. I'm really happy I did it.
I ended up with hip length hair, but I cut it back to armpit length. I nourashed it back to health, and now it's waist length again.
I was shocked at the state of my hair after combing them out. My hair just didn't want to hold a curl. I had crazy shrinkage and frizzy hair. It took a few months before it behaved like normal again.
I made the right decision for me 100%
Her sister locks were really cute. I wonder why she wanted to comb them out
Combed my 7 year locs out. I actually loved them but missed my loose natural hair.
They are called locs.. not dread locs because the hair is not dreadful and the word dread locs was use by slave master to describe our hair as dreadful..so no they are beautiful locs in there own way
I combed out my dreadlocks 14 years ago. They were beautiful. I had bad dreams about not having my locks. It took me 3 years before I put them back in. I did it dry and only used a thin comb. I've had my new locks for 11 years now .
I did this year. Lol Took me 3 days. I had issues with conditioner and water. Dry was the way to go. I only had about 30 locs. But Jesus. Lol
Yoo, any tips? I got about 30 too and i wanna comb em out next week
@@jamieguapoStart with your thickest ones first or start back to front. Energy is gonna drastically go down having your arms up for ever. So starting with the though ones and or ones you can see is easiest. Do your absolute best to not tug on any. I ended up loosing 3 locs from that. Dry worked best for me but experiment with conditioner and or water. Oh this which is obvious, but take brakes often because your arm is gonna feel like it's about to fall off! 🤣 Don't over do it. 💜
@@blahquinnyblah thank you sooo much!!❤❤❤ ill take notes😂
I combed out my almost three year old locs in Jan. 2022. I was going thru a lot and decided to comb them out. I don’t know how people get theirs out so fast, took me about 2 months on and off. I will definitely be getting my second set of locs soon, I can’t wait because I truly miss them
I recently combed out my locs since they were uneven. Went from 42 to at least 100. Gonna wait until they lock to count them.
i thought about it at 3 months locked ended up doing it about 6 months ago it was surprisingly easy cuz my hair is thicker i guess
Your hair wasn’t even really fully locked then lol that’s why it was easy
I thought about it when I had locks. After 14 years of having them, I simply let my roots grow out a bit and cut them off. I rocked a curly ‘fro for awhile, then started going to a barber again. Now, I keep my hair short, curly, and platinum blonde.
You have to do what is right for you ❤
Yes! It's wanting the natural curls and the fro! Boom!
I had loc extensions but I didn’t cut them off until my locs grew out to where I wanted it.
Then over the pandemic I was doing foolishness with adding extensions onto my already long locs which made the heavier. So when my stylist said my loc was starting to thin at the root I told her to cut off the extensions. But then I went home and cut more off into a bob.
Then I combine them to make then thicker so it’s growing out now and I’m happier with the results. I never have a thought jump in my head that I want to pick out or cut all my locs off…I love them…I had enough of dealing with my natural hair out and I got sick of doing it. Never want to go back
She fineeee but I definitely said “CYNTHIAAAA” when she came back @5:30 lmaoooo
I really miss just rocking hairstyles sometimes so the thought crosses at least once a day
*Took me about a week to comb mine out (2 years loc'd). I wanted to grow my Mohawk sides out. I'll be restarting my locs this Spring/Summer once my sides are the length I want.*
Been locking over 20 years. Now, I like them cut into a style. Wearing a long bob. Love it!! It was a big decision.
After shanty cut her hair, she looked like the little white doll that Maggie played with on the Simpsons
I remember being at a burger restaurant directly after my wash and set. And the young lady who served me admired my hair. I told her about my journey and she said ‘I was thinking about getting locs to comb them out for the hair growth.’ And I was like 😵💫🙅🏾♀️ nah chill. I told her that I was blessed to not have damaged my hair too much and retained my length. But I was like don’t go into with that mindset. You’ll hate them. And then there’s no guarantee that once combed out it will be the ‘hair you dreamed it would.’ Combing them out is a difficult decision…at least it was with me.
It took me 3 weeks to comb out my 77 locs. I liked my locs A LOT. But I didn’t love them. I didn’t really get the style I wanted, so I figured I should comb them out and try again. But my pre-loc shoulder length hair is now half way down my back. The locs might lose this fight. I’ll try again when I hit 40. 😂
I was stunned to learn that this was even a thing. I just assumed you'd have to just buzz & start again!
I've combed out my locs twice. now on my 3rd set of locs and idk if i'll comb them out again. It's SO MUCH WORK!
Aye ol girl had me dying wen she came back with the medusas 😂😂😂😂
Wow such a dreadlock expert.
Not Gon lie u made me wanna comb out my locs nd start over it’s been a year now prolly the best decision I ever made
thank god i had it pretty short , because i cried!
Hilarious AF. Great vid Gunther
I don't even have dreads and here I am. watching people comb out their dreads. I did the same .thing from my mother Years ago it was such a easy process..
If you bleach your hair, you have to dye it red before going back to brown/back. It won’t turn green or blue that way.
hes not lying when it comes to combing out locs its a damn process it took me 2 and half days to finally fully comb out my locs and for me to re do them
Combing out sister locs is psychotic
Combed out my dreads with the help of a friend. Took forever. Kept and grew my hair though 😊
Bra why you not at a mill yet. U deserve it gang. Been my mr miyagi for my whole journey my G. Stay up🙏🏾
I've combed out my locs on 2 separate occasions, but I regretted it within a year both times. It was like a 3 day long process taking my locs out both times.
I wore locs for the year of 2020 and then combed them out in 2021. In March of this year I installed microlocs and then combed them out micro locs for knotless braids in August only to get loc’d up again in October.
Coming it out with conditioner prevents a lot of tearing the hair out and damaging it so I recommend the conditioner it makes it slippery so the knots come out easier I try to do my daughter's dry and it it was just tearing half the lock off so I recommend conditioner
I actually watched your first comb out video to comb out my locs the first time now I have a child and don’t have time to take care of my hair all the time so I loc’d it right back up it’s been a year and 3 months and it’s grown out a lot 😌🥰
I combed out my locs last year. I used a rat tail comb(metal tipped) and conditioner; during the process, I would spritz my hair with water just so it could absorb the conditioner a little better. Overall, it took me a good couple of weeks to comb them out of my hair entirely.
Good observation! Cosmetology school teaches to manipulate hair at 80% dry bc wet hair is too pliable and very easy to break👏🏽
A+
Great video 😀! Thanks for sharing 👍🏿
I cut my locs after 9 yrs I'm growing my hair back now to start over...I cried like a baby
Took 2 weeks to comb mines out, just did the last one on 11/26/22 back to my natural hair and I had a lot of growth.
I've combed out one or two locs and then was like no, no way, not doing this! 😂 That's one of the great thing about locs is there is so many opportunities to change your mind and go back. Also I think dry is better imo, when hair is wet I think it's more fragile, more susceptible to damage, especially if it's bleached, but I see why people think it's better to do wet, because it's like lubrication for the hairs to slip past each other easier.
9 years locd here .. considering combing mine post decade mark ..I want to restart them after a year of embracing my curls . My Sun was locd for 8 years and now has a temp fade ..he loves it
10 years for me debating to cut or comb out . Never thought I would feel this way but feel an urge to do so
I just combed my locs out and it turn out good 😊 and I had them in for 9 months
