This video inspired me to start my dreads again. I started with a microfiber towel and already see the separation and can't wait to see how they come out.
just a tip and no offense but it will work better if you use sponge first then towel and I know this is probably made for people who dont have a sponge but great video Gunther
guys word of advice from someone who tried the coil method, towel method, and sponge method: if you want dreads, USE THE SPONGE METHOD IT WORKS THE FASTEST AND LOOKS THE BEST
The best method is to use a regular brush or even ya fingers in a klaw shape and that’s because towel and sponge strips moisture these item literally soak up water now when using brush or finger the brush is faster day 1 result but your fingers over time like waving will give u better results as your hair grows longer or u can start off using a brush and when u hair gets longer switch to using ur finger key note use this method with wet wet hair or showering especially with longer hair so u can shape in the direction u want ya hair to flow and grow
I started with a sponge, moved onto towel and now i have locs that hang halfway across my forhead, i stopped using the towel and just using my fingers to occasionally twist the loose roots because my dreads are locking from the tips down to root, i dont wanna use products or anything, what should i do to prevent loose roots
Im here because one of the guys on discord accidently leaked his reddit account and he had the nappiest ragged looking matted hair and said they were "towel rub dreads". Obviously didnt foll9w your tutorial or his hair was too long and strait
Hey Gunther. I was wondering. Im a white dude with the waviest hair type you can get I don’t remember the technical term. But I was wondering if Bantu knots was a good idea to get curls. I want tight curls and I’ve had my hair permed before. Also I was wondering if you knew if getting a perm and then Bantu knotting my hair would make my hair tight curls? Also other people Im open to suggestions to get tighter curls. Anything is appreciated.😁
I have african hair and have hair that goes down to my mouth when I pull it and I've done freeform with towel and sponge for two days and I already got dreads
does this method work for someone whos grown their hair out a good bit before starting locks? I grew my fro out quite a bit before deciding to start my lock journey, roughly 3 to 4 inches
im trying this and it works great but you cant do it too long everyday id suggest 5-10 mins in the morning every other day like, do it one day and skip a day and then do it the next , i did it every day morning and night for a total of 20-30 mins for around 2 weeks and it started thinning which is bad
Wow thx i knew u could use a towel but i didnt know how to PROPERLY use it to get dreads. But can u wash ur hair while u do this or do u have to not wash ur hair while ur getting dreads using this method
when starting my locs with a fro should i pick my hair out or curl it and then towel? cuz i'm mixed and my hairs curly (3c) so i feel like if i towel rub while my hair is curly instead of picking it out my hair will loc better
orlander robinson to be honest I don’t think the term semi freeform exists Sure you start out with a shape, but freeforming is the state of not manipulating your hair so how are you freeforming half way? Just a thought.
@@viscosity7893 alright here's the thing semi freeforming is when you use a sponge a brush a towel or whatever and apply product to your hair for your hair to lock now actually freeforming is when you don't do nothing to your hair you don't use a brush a towel or a sponge and no product and you let your hair do it's thing for it to lock
This dude is a great editor😂😂
Exactly the guys hair look different from the thumbnail 😂. He ain't slick
RICKY sparta on meeeeeeee
Starting him off right ✊🏾🔥 He's so lucky to start off with someone who has so much knowledge on starting dreads 💯
All this jit do is crotchet everybody head tf 😂
So you’re not supposed to wash your hair after the locks form? I’m confused. How do you clean it then?
@@trevoryoung7184 u can wash it but not very often about once or twice a month so like do it every 2 weeks
Is that j Cole from 2011😂
Thats what im thinking
Yea with Lonzo Ball.
Xavier Pitter I know right he look just the way J Cole looked back in 2011 before he got dreads
I dont see it😄
Yeah I'm seeing it. And his eyes 1:35
An actual good idea
Take 1-3 fans and help them get dreads
Imma volunteer
Thats acc brilliant
K Simmons yo my names keon simmons
But its easy
It's not that hard to get dreads if you have the right hair type
You can also use a sock if you really strugglin
Omm the jail way
Ira Sheppard 💔😂

Love you vids man they are so great I love how much you honor god god bless man
I heard using the towel method then the sponge directly afterwards makes it more defined faster. It works good for combed out hair too
Qwaserd 420 wym by that
@@raymondjohnson9445 Can i use bath towel
u encouraged me to start dreads
man was smooth with the "free 99"

just a tip and no offense but it will work better if you use sponge first then towel and I know this is probably made for people who dont have a sponge but great video Gunther
Ayyyy shout out KC. I'm about to start my journey
It also works with a. soft brush + hair jel
I started my 3yrs old son hair this way but use cold water on the rag tho it really works
Wow man only been using an old towel and it looks proper natty already 👊🏿🙏🏾
guys word of advice from someone who tried the coil method, towel method, and sponge method: if you want dreads, USE THE SPONGE METHOD IT WORKS THE FASTEST AND LOOKS THE BEST
It’s exactly what I use
I use towel and sponge
Really depends on your hair type. For people with looser straighter hair towel works better.
How tf do you wash? I’ve been doing it for a week and haven’t been washing and my hair is getting dandruff and itchy af??
DH Essay its growing
Really slept on this till I tried it 😩😩✋🏼 results are definitely better if your hair ranges from 2c to 3c
It works pretty good with straight hair too
The best method is to use a regular brush or even ya fingers in a klaw shape and that’s because towel and sponge strips moisture these item literally soak up water now when using brush or finger the brush is faster day 1 result but your fingers over time like waving will give u better results as your hair grows longer or u can start off using a brush and when u hair gets longer switch to using ur finger key note use this method with wet wet hair or showering especially with longer hair so u can shape in the direction u want ya hair to flow and grow
Keep up great work I just started freeform dreads and they look weird but they will grow
how is they?
This is actually better for when your locs get to long for the sponge
I got my dreads on accident I was rocking the two strand for way too long and they locked so from there I just kept gettin them retwisted
The Non-Believer yeah this girl I used to mess with re did them everytime they got little messy so it would look fresh again
Same bruh haha
Same lmao, they looked so good after the first day and then fucked them up
Hey Gunther can you make a video about comb twisting with gel?? It’d be clutch🙏🏽🙏🏽 God Bless
I literally did the same thing I just had my dreads for two weeks and wash them out this morning ggs
Im invested in his loc journey. Wheres his hair at today? 😂

Also a tennis Racket works, I've been using it for 3 years now and it's really payin off.

Lxrd_Raven yes
It might work to change the way it looks, but ultimately your hair can't change textures
Lxrd_Raven check out my dread vid and sub of u like it

Ray Allen Son.

Love to this man
Yo in your Page,the white guy with locks kill me🤦🏾♂️😂😂😪

I actually got my dreads from towel rub. My dreads are pretty skinny and it's pretty cool looking cuz I got curly hair. I have 3b hair

My cousin got dreads from a towel too
does this method work for someone whos grown their hair out a good bit before starting locks? I grew my fro out quite a bit before deciding to start my lock journey, roughly 3 to 4 inches
No just get coils
Did he say free 99?🤣
yuppp
He said 3 99 please use your brain when making a comment
@@prxsm8542 lol
i don’t know if i should get dreads or not i should wait for my face to grow and look more mature maybe
If you want it you should get it
im trying this and it works great but you cant do it too long everyday id suggest 5-10 mins in the morning every other day like, do it one day and skip a day and then do it the next , i did it every day morning and night for a total of 20-30 mins for around 2 weeks and it started thinning which is bad
Can we just use a sponge brush instead of a towel? Will there be a difference? Is it better or worst?
I think it's better
I didn't know Christiano Ronaldo decided to get dreadlocks
Awesome
Thanks bro 🤙
Can I do this by myself?? and also i’m 1a can i still towel rub
Hey can it work on longer hair
It would've been easier with a sponge😭
I use towel and mine are good
@@user-ep1zx5xs3o same
Works well my hair kinda short tho so the results are less visible
Wow thx i knew u could use a towel but i didnt know how to PROPERLY use it to get dreads. But can u wash ur hair while u do this or do u have to not wash ur hair while ur getting dreads using this method
Don't wash your hair because Gunther said he waited 2 months for him to wash. Realistically you want 3 weeks or more
Don’t wash your hair for a month if u have African hair and use locking gel
wow, I love your hairstyle, how could you ask the hairdresser?
That’s a rag not a towel but thx for the dread
so why does it matter lmfao you can use a towel
when starting my locs with a fro should i pick my hair out or curl it and then towel? cuz i'm mixed and my hairs curly (3c) so i feel like if i towel rub while my hair is curly instead of picking it out my hair will loc better
So if I want true freeform dreds should I just not do any of this?
Well are you semi freeforming or actually freeforming
orlander robinson well I started with a sponge but I only did it for a week so I guess it’s freeform
@@viscosity7893 well that's called semi freeforming
orlander robinson to be honest I don’t think the term semi freeform exists
Sure you start out with a shape, but freeforming is the state of not manipulating your hair so how are you freeforming half way? Just a thought.

Cool
