  • Watch me give my little girl her first dreadlocks!! Partials till she is bigger!!!
    There are a lot of ways to dreadlock hair but this is the way I use and prefer. I ever use any wax, I use the Twist and Rip, Backcoming and Crochet Method together. The Twist and Rip and Backcombing creates the loc and the Crochet Method cleans it up and gives it the appearance of a more mature loc instantly.
    Making locs is not rocket science. It is simply creating knots in your hair so do not be too critical of your work. Trust yourself, trust the process... and trust that little loc! It takes practice and it gets easier, and with time you will even get quicker.
    My dream is to be able to teach others. More importantly, teach them where I came to to learn. I believe everyone should be able to have locs and loc extensions even if chronic pain prevents them from sitting in a dreadmakers chair for hours on end. Or if they live too far from one or if they cannnot afford to go to one. That was me, all of the above, plus I wanted to be able to say that I created them, there is a lot of pride attached to that.
    Happy dread creating! Please comment and let me know what you think! Please subscribe!

    Very rarely, do I meet someone that's named Violet. I'm 65 years old & my name is Violet. It was my grandmothers name & it was passed on to me. It sounds so much prettier when you say it. I used to hate my name, but as I have grown older I have came to like it more. It's an old name that I believe may be making a small come back.
    Your little girl is beautiful & the name seems so much more beautiful for her. And just really suits her! I suppose my reason I didn't like it when I was a child was that I was a tomboy of sorts & didn't care for such a girly name. I wanted a boys name, but as I said I came to like it, because it's not the norm & different. And different is always my normal.

      It just sounded prettier the way it was spoken I suppose.. There is a bit of a Hillbilly draw in my ppl. So maybe just the way they say it..

    I tried to start my own locks last Sunday, but I've really struggled to get them to lock all the way down to the bottom... As in my hair comes to my hips but the locks stop just past my shoulders.

      Slide the hook through the middle of the loc, scoop so you grab hold of some hairs and pull them to the inside of the loc - not all the way through, then push the hook through again to snag some more hairs and pull them into the loc. After you've done that four or five times, pull the hook out and move to another spot
