    Best tutorial ever! Did my mans wash and retwist Sunday night. Took me exactly 3 hours, I'm sure I'll get a little faster but this was my first time ever even attempting it. It came out great and he's happy with it. Most importantly, he is no longer talking about cutting his beautiful, almost to the middle of his back length locs off. Thank you so much!!

    Thank you so much for helping me achieve a beautiful retwist on myself. I followed all instructions except I used a different gel (lock booster), and plam rolled instead of locksmith cause idk how even with all the tutorials lol. The big clips makes huge difference and cut my retwist time down. Also parting first, then reparting with gel made a difference too. Thank you for teaching all the techniques. Especially “twist to the right” made it so much easier to remember. Forever grateful. Saved me money and time ❤❤❤

    My boyfriend wants me to do his hair, and I've never done dreads before. What would you recommend for a dread that's split in two towards the end? I've seen videos that crochet them together, but am worried about it being thicker than the rest of his dreads or causing breakage. It's also too thin towards the root to split and make two.

      Depends on the style. With two strands I twist along the way and I blow dry it for 5 minutes after, but the two strands keep the retwist together so sitting under a dryer for 20 minutes isn’t needed. For barrels I’ll let it dry first then style. I will make a video on it good question
