I had the neatest crochet locs for half a year and then I just couldn’t stand the fact that I couldn’t brush through my hair. I cut them off and felt so much better, but I loved the 6 months with my locs. I did find them high maintenance to make them look good and not filthy.
i have dread locs and ummm... no mold is not a “normal” thing.... that’s just her not taking care of them.... locs are a lot of work and need special care... locs are not for everyone... that is nasty
My hair is naturally curly. Gets a little straighter as it gets past my shoulders, but still curls when it's wet or if it's too humid. Also coarse-ish because that's very common for us***, especially as it turns grey. I *still** don't think I could do locs. My hair takes long enough to wash and dry as it is. I can't imagine what a 6 hour drying time would become if I tried them. 😨 (**Edit. By "us" I mean the Jewish side of my family)
My sister is white passing as fuck (green eyes, freckles, etc) but her hair is still 3c at least so she rocked them for years, but I had friends with straight hair with dreads too and they didn't get that nasty
@@sjnowman3938 It's not necessarily bc she didn't take care of them but straight hair holds the moisture for longer so it's easier for it to get mouldy 😊

If you've got straight or wavy hair, if your hair isn't especially curly or coily, think carefully about getting locs and get them thin if you do. The things done to make straight/wavy hair loc up means they often don't get air flow all the way through the loc, which makes it hell to dry. If your locs don't dry all the way through, it's a perfect environment for mold and mildew. If your locs don't air dry all the way though, go in there with a hair dryer.
The biggest difference in Locs are texture. Straighter/Wavy/Looser curls are matted hair. While Tighter curls/Coils curl into itself creating a Loc. Tighter the curl the less moisture it holds also the less product it needs to create locs. The straighter the hair the longer it holds moisture which causes the mold.

Just an honest question. Would the thickness and length of her hair really not cause the weighted down feeling she felt? And I've always been curious, but how do you take care of/wash the hair without getting residue or mold over time?
Ember Daugherty it’s probably a build up of product. Doing an apple cider vinegar rinse every so often helps get out the build up. That would also take out a LOT of the weight. That being said her hair was really long, so it still probably would’ve been heavy.
Ember Daugherty I mean I’ve been growing mine for a while and as they get heavy I’m getting used to it. And I haven’t had any mold or white stuff show up yet mainly coz I only use water and oil (basically things that can dissolve with soap when I wash). I also don’t use conditioner because it gets stuck in there
It's not always product build up, you can get mould in dreads when just washing with water too. I'm not sure what would stop it from happening since they take so long to dry through to the inside... Possibly it's different for different types of hair though
They were WAY more practical. Not nearly as thick as the first lady’s hair so I can only assume that the second lady was able to take care of them much better than the first
And too that White girls only so dreads because it's cool or because they are disrespectful or racist. Unfortunately there are too many people like that but there are many too who do them because they are on a spiritual or cultural journey and they shouldn't be ridiculed or abused for their hair. But for this reason I think you should search information about dreadlocks and have a reason for why you have them and be respectful that in some cultures locks mean a lot and are not just a hair-style. Though people can so what the fuck, it's their hair and not one else but we need to be respectful towards each other too, why that's important imo too.
@@GunsNRoses1123 I completely agree with the second part but just to respectfully inform you, dreads originated from the Vikings and many other people have worn it since then (Romans, Mayans, Celts etc) before black people adapted it :) I'm sorry I didn't really know how to word this so if it sounds rude I didn't mean to I'm sorry

@@ceceruben6113, thank you so much!! I'll take 45 and run with it!! Actually, last week I decided to go even further and do my first wet shave on my scalp. I LOVE IT!! After MUCH review watching, I opted for the HeadBlade MOTO. It looks a bit gimmicky and I dismissed it at first, but the reviews couldn't be ignored so I jumped in the pool...and I am so glad I did. I wish you much, much joy with your locs. I absolutely loved mine, but my poor scalp couldn't support them. I'm going to see if you have an active channel. I'd love to follow your journey. Much love from the Netherlands!! xxx
Mould can be encouraged by a) poor loc care, not washing them and/or not allowing them to dry out properly after washes and b) artificially forming them in the beginning with waxes and other sticky things which hold moisture and impurities in the centre of the locs. Tends to be more common in people with hair that doesn't naturally loc up as a result.
@@goosty17 Let's not start with this. People can have varying degrees of curliness, thickness, porosity, etc.. this all affects how hair performs in certain styles. Yes, coily hair is mostly African and locs up the most and tends to be the driest, but that doesn't mean other ethnicities cannot have hair that does fine in locs.
Gustavo Villar no what you said is spot on. Caucasian hair is typically fine and weak so locs don’t end up being a protective style but a destructive one. And it looks crazy on them
I'm honestly surprised there isn't more comments on why people with Caucasian hair shouldn't loc not only for structural/health purposes but cultural...
Dandruff isn't that bad I have it and it's just flecks in ur hair but mold is the gross part they didnt wash there hair properly or they just didnt take care of it
Gabby Nguyen no it’s because it didn’t dry all the way. It’s extremely common because dreads take almost an entire day too dry! That is why it started molding. And the mold spores came from going outside. So, y’all do your research before you choose to be rude :))
@@dandelionheadd I'm not TRYING to be rude I'm just pointing out that dandruff is a normal thing and that they shouldn't be hating on something A LOT of ppl have so it can bring those ppl down with it
I remember continuing my cosmetology education to have the knowledge for textured hair: true dreadlocks won't hold mold, especially if properly maintained. "Dreads" with untextured hair are what get moldy. They're not truly locked curls: it's essentially just matted hair. So they can't dry fast, if at all, and therefore get moldy. 🤢
Thank you for getting extended education in cosmetology. I love that you want to be inclusive. But it also opens you up to more pay check opportunities. I love everything about that 💜
Certain hair styles just aren’t good for certain hair textures and sometimes we have to except that (even me as a black girl, I don’t straighten my hair often anymore due to heat damage)
When I was in a basic training (military) they gave us special cream when we arrived, because it was so common for the white people to grow mold in their buns. We had to wash our hair about every 3 days, style it into a sock bun wet, and they made us use products not intended for our hair type. When I got to my next base, I literally had to chop 1/2 of my hair off. It was never the same, it never smelled great even after shower after shower. UGH
she probably meant residue, they´re supposed to use residue free shampoo. At least if they don´t want that in their hair, but she probably had mold too.
You have to remember straight hair is more oily thus it attracts more dirt and it also retains more water, two qualities that are horrible for Locs. Also, straight hair is harder to loc which means you can’t wash it often like you could curlier hair or else it will unravel, all these factors combined (oil, moisture, less washing) makes a breeding ground for bacteria. Moral of the story is you should probably have at least a type 3 curl pattern if you’re going to get locs.
So story. Brad saying “could you imagine having your hair the same for 10 years then shaving it all off” I can agree that it feels insane. I got cancer last year and suddenly with no warning I had to lose all of my hair. I was so worried before but once it started falling out I shaved it and honestly I’ve never felt more liberated in my entire life. And now I know I can pull of the shaved look 😁
My mom just finished her breast cancer treatment (not even a week ago) and looking back, she said the same thing. She was so worried about losing it, but once we got there, it all just seemed trivial. Thankfully, she's learned to embrace the bald, but she's also excited to have it grow back
I am currently combing out my waist length locs. I've been working for two weeks as I am only combing by myself. Brad's videos are giving me life while I go through this process. I've had my locs five and a half years. I live in Belize and the weight in the summer heat can be absolutely miserable.
she looked SO GOOD and the single loc was actually really cool. she looked like a Jedi. :D I'm glad she shaved though, her beautiful face really shines through without all that hair.
Yeah I could’ve said it nicer but I’m just frustrated with people trying this hairstyle and not taking proper care of it. Don’t like washing and caring for it? Keep ya damn head shaved.
I know a lot of people have mentioned that mold isn't normal, but it should be said that mold is a good indicator that you don't have the right hair texture for locs.
@@HippieHealing it is true though, because curly hair is natrally dry, and dries a lotttt easier and faster in the style, as opposed to straighter hair which stays oily/ moist for longer! :)
@@motherofbuns Hair being dry vs oily has nothing to do with how fast it dries. Those are two different things. There are a lot of people with dry, curly hair that also have a hair texture that dries really slowly.
Caucasian hair is likely to get mouldy in dreads bc it splits and breaks so shit gets trapped. Super curly hair that dreads naturally doesn't have the same problem fyi
All hair splits and breaks and comes out of your head, regardless of ethnicity. It doesn’t matter in terms of that, everyone looses 80-100 hairs from their head a day. Now hair texture, density, and thickness matters.
That's not true at all, afro textured hair can get build up and mold like Caucasian hair, it all comes down to the maintenance method/cleaning methods/products used on the hair. Mold comes from not using proper products in your hair that leave build up inside the dread and makes the dread moist from the inside, doing this over a long time will eventually cause mold and dread rot. You can also get mold from sleeping on or tying up wet dreads and not letting them dry fully, this will happen regardless of the hair texture.
Idk why people are going on on you but it was gross. She didn’t take care of her dreads and that’s why they got moldy and smelly. It takes a long time to wash and try them but it’s necessary to put the time in or don’t get them.
Cady Perry hey! It’s not a shorten way the actual name or the hair style is locs. White colonizers coined the term “dreadlocks” because they saw this ethnic hair style as dreadful.
First video title: combing my dreads out after 6 years Brad: that’s probably like 6 years of growth Her: 6 years Brad: there we go I was right Edit: thanks for 1.5k likes 2.7K?!?!?!? 3.8 THOUSAND LIKES WHATTTTT 4.8 WHATTTTTTT
Sorry Anns but you’re comments at the top of mine first I saw so let’s hope brad sees this ... WHY DID YOU NOT TALK ABOUT THE CULTURAL APPROPRIATION AND ONLY SHOWED WHITE PEOPLE?!?!?!?
I've never watched a loc removal video before since I have no intention of ever taking mine out. My loose hair is too slick, springy, coiled, and gravity-defying for me or my family (some of which are hairdressers) to want to deal with, (this is also why mine are crocheted instead of palm rolled, since my hair is defiant and won't stay put). Plus having my locs just now get to butt length after 16 years makes me a little territorial of all 99 of them. Hopefully I make it through the video.
It is honestly so nice to have someone giving such positive responses, even when things seem to go wrong you are so nice about potential etc. I love seeing you come up on my timeline on Facebook.
@@soreenloaf7519 You can (and need to) wash dreads, most people with dreads do washings weekly and then deep cleaning soaks every month - few months. Build up and mold is usually caused by using wax or additive heavy products on your dreads and not drying them properly. Not washing your hair would give you scalp problems, not mold in your dreads.
I have dreads and have had them for 5 years. There are things you can do to prevent the mold and nasty. Mine have never stank. I soak my hair in a apple cider vinegar solution and wash it with regular shampoo. I think a lot of people don't maintain their dreads. They do require maintenance, just like any hairstyle.
@@lailaalbatati8707 its about hair texture not race there are people who have lighter skin but have the hair texture of black people most likely since they have black ancestors or black family.
I'm SO GLAD that last girl kept that one dreadlock. With the super short hair and that one dread wrapped around her head? SO ADORABLE! It's SUCH a great look for her, and I agree, she does look younger! She's gorgeous with the dreads and then still super gorgeous in a totally different way with the pixie and one accent dread. I had no idea she was gonna look so good when she was talking about going so short but I AM SHOOK at just how beautiful she looks. Like that cut suits her so much more than I would have imagined. And I'm really glad that first girl brushed out her dreads...if you've got mold growing in your dreads...you're doing something wrong.
Getting dreads is actually a very big thing in some parts of India, because for hindus our god Shiva has dreads, so most people get them for religious reasons to pay ode to shiva and it's a very big step into devotion obviously because it's a huge change for your self in general Idk why I said this but I did, lol.
@@poppyseed5270 yeah and it's sad that the hair connects you to your inner peace or something so it's very interesting. I have seen it but nowadays straight hair is like the thing there but I do see some dreads not a lot anymore sadly
@Poppy Seed Yes mate, I’ve been raised Hindu and basically the story goes like: The river Ganga, when it came down from the sky to the earth, it arrived worth so much force that if it did hit earth it would have killed everyone and caused like, a huge flood. So Lord Shiva took the river and trapped it in his hair where it got lost in his dreads, and by the time it got out it was much more subdued than before. So it could come to earth without destroying everything. As for as I know this is how the story goes but if anyone thinks that I’m wrong please don’t hesitate to share your opinion. :)
Not really, mold grows in wet conditions, so every time she washes them\takes the shower they just don't dry up after 'cause matted hair is quite a thick and dense clog of hair and the air just doesn't get through. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have mold if she never got them wet lol...
Claire Willow mold is normal in dreads. Mold forms in wet places. Dreads take a super long time to dry. So, most people with dreads have mold on the inside.
I can imagine it's normal to have mold in dreadlocks (because it is very difficult to dry them) but I still think it's gross, sorry But I wanna clarify that I like dreadlocks!
You can tell when Brad isn’t in the best mood or just having a low energy day at the beginning of his videos, and then he watches these videos and it just completely changes his mood and he’s happy. I love it.
My boyfriend has dreadlocks and has it since he was a kid. He’s 20 now and I don’t think he’ll ever get rid of it. I love them. We’re always looking for new hairstyles for his hair.
@@acoolgirl7221 That was just matted, dirty hair. Locs are carefully coiled and made to eventually matte through a process which requires a lot of work to maintain. Anyone can DO them, but not everyone can take care of it properly, hence why some looser curl patterns have a harder time and need help through extensions/cotton etc.
@Dani Damien ha lol. Believe in what u want to believe but I had dreadlocks myself ( and I am white white) and everything was okay. Just chill anyway. People are tired to see all those WHITE PEOPLE CAN'T DO BLACK CULTURE SUPREMACY WHITE CAN NOT DO Lmaooooo
I love you so much brad. I would've liked to see more black people in this video. I don't know if that's a bad thing to say but I use to have locks for 7 years and I combed them out for highschool and I think it would've been nice to see a different loc texture(black/afro) instead of a more straight texture (I think that's right lol) so I could see other people like me who went through the same process.❤️❤️
@kierahmoodie I don’t know if this is helpful or not but he has a few other dreadlock removal videos from the past that are a lot more inclusive. Also your name is really pretty
I get this because I had this huge knot in my hair and it was like a dread lock.Nobody but my mom and me thought it would come out everyone else thought we had to shave it. Even a professional. Me and my mom sat down for hours combing out my hair, a few weeks later we finally got it out.After she got it out I was so relieved.
I had a friend in HS who did dreads. She shaved her head to get rid of them, she looked amazing with her head shaved. When her hair grew out it was also super cute. She was adorable.
i just wanted to say thank you, bc from the age of 7-15 i NEVER knew what i wanted to be leaving high school but now i’m 16 turning 17 and a senior in high school, watching your videos have made me realize i’m EXTREMELY passionate about hair, i LOVE watching the confidence boost people get after a new style/color it makes me happy. and being able to do that for the people i love is amazing. you have helped me find my passion and just by figuring out what i wanna be you’ve helped me realize i wanna own my own business and travel the world. thank you so much you have lifted so much stress off of my shoulders

Exactly dreads aren’t dirty or moldy and not stinky when taken care of the fact he’s using words like ratchet and gross is dumb and uneducated there are so many people with beautiful clean taken care of dreads that love their culture and do it for a reason.
Lindsi Maxstead exactly! And people like her show why white people should not have locs. Their hair isn’t made for it, they are uneducated on it and they don’t respect the significance behind them. I’m sure there are white people out there who do, but it’s people like this that make society look down on POC with locs.
@@julietampier wdym? no white people can have healthy dreads (i mean technically they dont have them at all, they just have mats). only ppl with afro textured hair can have dreadlocks
ever-heart gaming I know that sometimes it’s hard to get long haired people wigs made out of real people hair, so it made me feel really good because because I donated 14 inches of hair, which is enough for a child at least to go longer than shoulder length so that’s great:)
@@cloudydays6220 yay! I can only imagine the beaming smile on the childs face when they see that somebody donated to them! I'm definitely going to grow my hair as long as possible and cut it short so I can donate it!
Hey Brad, just to let you know, a more appropriate term for the hairstyle is simply “locs”. Historically, the term “dread” in dreadlocs oftentimes had negative connotations that implied that POC failed to properly care for their hair, thus making it “dreadful” and unkempt. When in actuality, grooming thick, beautiful locs requires excellent maintenance and hygiene. I’m sure you didn’t mean any harm with the title of your video, but I thought I’d just shed some light for future reference. I’m still a huge fan!
I agree with what you saying, but he’s also right. Dreadlocks is a term used for the unkept, matted look that was seen on white people’s hair. Locs are seen on Africans/Nubians and their descendants as a grooming technique and has a well maintained look.
Lauren Jewel, just to let you know, "dreadlocks" "dred-locs" "dreddies" "dreads"...all of these are common names for the masses of hair that Brad refers to here without cultural affiliation. I have seen all styles and thicknesses - neatly groomed and IDGAF lumpy - depending here in the 21st century depending on the person whose hair it IS. IMO it is the choice of the person who is wearing them as to what they would like their hairstyle to be called. If you woke up one day after your history class and decided the word "dreadlocks" was offensive to you, sweet. Don't use that word. However, please don't shame, disrespect, or otherwise try to embarrass another individual for using a word that has, by now, been used to describe a commonly recognized thing. You call them "locs"? Outstanding. Do that. It would be ridiculous to expect the rest of the world to suddenly adopt that term, especially with the approach of, "I'm sure you'll appreciate this: you're offending some people out here. Now that I have educated you, I'm sure you'll change." K love ya! mean it! byyyeee! 😸💕

The first girl simply didn’t care for her dreads properly which is what probably contributed to the weight and obviously caused her to have mold
Was about to comment this. If you take care of locks properly they don’t get like that.
Just an honest question. Would the thickness and length of her hair really not cause the weighted down feeling she felt? And I've always been curious, but how do you take care of/wash the hair without getting residue or mold over time?
Ember Daugherty it’s probably a build up of product. Doing an apple cider vinegar rinse every so often helps get out the build up. That would also take out a LOT of the weight. That being said her hair was really long, so it still probably would’ve been heavy.
Ember Daugherty I mean I’ve been growing mine for a while and as they get heavy I’m getting used to it. And I haven’t had any mold or white stuff show up yet mainly coz I only use water and oil (basically things that can dissolve with soap when I wash). I also don’t use conditioner because it gets stuck in there
It's not always product build up, you can get mould in dreads when just washing with water too. I'm not sure what would stop it from happening since they take so long to dry through to the inside... Possibly it's different for different types of hair though

Everyone is talking about the first women's disgusting dreads so I want to take a moment and appreciate the second woman's BEAUTIFUL dreads!
THANK YOU
They were WAY more practical. Not nearly as thick as the first lady’s hair so I can only assume that the second lady was able to take care of them much better than the first
yes, they were some well maintained dreads. it's girls like #1 that give dreads the dirty stigma.
And too that White girls only so dreads because it's cool or because they are disrespectful or racist. Unfortunately there are too many people like that but there are many too who do them because they are on a spiritual or cultural journey and they shouldn't be ridiculed or abused for their hair. But for this reason I think you should search information about dreadlocks and have a reason for why you have them and be respectful that in some cultures locks mean a lot and are not just a hair-style. Though people can so what the fuck, it's their hair and not one else but we need to be respectful towards each other too, why that's important imo too.
@@GunsNRoses1123 I completely agree with the second part but just to respectfully inform you, dreads originated from the Vikings and many other people have worn it since then (Romans, Mayans, Celts etc) before black people adapted it :) I'm sorry I didn't really know how to word this so if it sounds rude I didn't mean to I'm sorry

@@ceceruben6113, thank you so much!! I'll take 45 and run with it!! Actually, last week I decided to go even further and do my first wet shave on my scalp. I LOVE IT!! After MUCH review watching, I opted for the HeadBlade MOTO. It looks a bit gimmicky and I dismissed it at first, but the reviews couldn't be ignored so I jumped in the pool...and I am so glad I did. I wish you much, much joy with your locs. I absolutely loved mine, but my poor scalp couldn't support them. I'm going to see if you have an active channel. I'd love to follow your journey. Much love from the Netherlands!! xxx
Mould can be encouraged by a) poor loc care, not washing them and/or not allowing them to dry out properly after washes and b) artificially forming them in the beginning with waxes and other sticky things which hold moisture and impurities in the centre of the locs. Tends to be more common in people with hair that doesn't naturally loc up as a result.
In other words, Caucasian hair does not loc up well lol
@@goosty17 Let's not start with this. People can have varying degrees of curliness, thickness, porosity, etc.. this all affects how hair performs in certain styles. Yes, coily hair is mostly African and locs up the most and tends to be the driest, but that doesn't mean other ethnicities cannot have hair that does fine in locs.
Gustavo Villar no what you said is spot on. Caucasian hair is typically fine and weak so locs don’t end up being a protective style but a destructive one. And it looks crazy on them
Gustavo Villar tbh caucasian hair with dreads looks really funky :/
I'm honestly surprised there isn't more comments on why people with Caucasian hair shouldn't loc not only for structural/health purposes but cultural...

Dandruff isn't that bad I have it and it's just flecks in ur hair but mold is the gross part they didnt wash there hair properly or they just didnt take care of it
Gabby Nguyen no it’s because it didn’t dry all the way. It’s extremely common because dreads take almost an entire day too dry! That is why it started molding. And the mold spores came from going outside. So, y’all do your research before you choose to be rude :))
@@dandelionheadd I'm not TRYING to be rude I'm just pointing out that dandruff is a normal thing and that they shouldn't be hating on something A LOT of ppl have so it can bring those ppl down with it

I remember continuing my cosmetology education to have the knowledge for textured hair: true dreadlocks won't hold mold, especially if properly maintained. "Dreads" with untextured hair are what get moldy. They're not truly locked curls: it's essentially just matted hair. So they can't dry fast, if at all, and therefore get moldy. 🤢
Thank you for getting extended education in cosmetology. I love that you want to be inclusive. But it also opens you up to more pay check opportunities. I love everything about that 💜
Thank you ! People are getting offended in these comments but it’s true !!!
fax I came to the comments looking for the people explaining this because I know locs arent meant for non textured hair but I didnt know why
Certain hair styles just aren’t good for certain hair textures and sometimes we have to except that (even me as a black girl, I don’t straighten my hair often anymore due to heat damage)
When I was in a basic training (military) they gave us special cream when we arrived, because it was so common for the white people to grow mold in their buns. We had to wash our hair about every 3 days, style it into a sock bun wet, and they made us use products not intended for our hair type. When I got to my next base, I literally had to chop 1/2 of my hair off. It was never the same, it never smelled great even after shower after shower. UGH
I love that second girl so much! She has such a nice friendly vibe that feels so comfy!
Proud of the first girl for getting rid of her dreads cause obviously she didn't take care of them. That's disgusting.
It's a wonder she didn't smell musty!
I literally gagged when he said its mold. I watched another girl brush hers out and she said it was soap. 🤣
she probably meant residue, they´re supposed to use residue free shampoo. At least if they don´t want that in their hair, but she probably had mold too.
its product build up that guy doesnt know what he is talking about
You have to remember straight hair is more oily thus it attracts more dirt and it also retains more water, two qualities that are horrible for Locs. Also, straight hair is harder to loc which means you can’t wash it often like you could curlier hair or else it will unravel, all these factors combined (oil, moisture, less washing) makes a breeding ground for bacteria. Moral of the story is you should probably have at least a type 3 curl pattern if you’re going to get locs.
@@rudyl1770 I am a hairstylist and have brushed out dreaded hair and there is mold inside dreads frequently
@@rudyl1770 Not necessarily. White dreads are known for growing mold.
So story. Brad saying “could you imagine having your hair the same for 10 years then shaving it all off” I can agree that it feels insane. I got cancer last year and suddenly with no warning I had to lose all of my hair. I was so worried before but once it started falling out I shaved it and honestly I’ve never felt more liberated in my entire life. And now I know I can pull of the shaved look 😁
I hope your recovery is going well!
Kaitlin it is thanks. Got the all clear earlier this year 😊 and my hairs come back real curly which is new
My mom just finished her breast cancer treatment (not even a week ago) and looking back, she said the same thing. She was so worried about losing it, but once we got there, it all just seemed trivial. Thankfully, she's learned to embrace the bald, but she's also excited to have it grow back
My fiances mom also had cancer and her pin straight hair is now so curly! It's beautiful but so interesting how it changes your hair so much.
P. Williams I’m so glad she finished treatment. Hope she’s doing well 😊
I am currently combing out my waist length locs. I've been working for two weeks as I am only combing by myself. Brad's videos are giving me life while I go through this process. I've had my locs five and a half years. I live in Belize and the weight in the summer heat can be absolutely miserable.
The last girl was so beautiful with a shaved head. She and her husband are both gorgeous and have a beautiful family.
she looked SO GOOD and the single loc was actually really cool. she looked like a Jedi. :D I'm glad she shaved though, her beautiful face really shines through without all that hair.
I’ve been watching them since their baby was an infant they are such positive sweet people. I love them.

I’m sorry, but that first girl is the reason why people think dreads are nasty and smell bad...she obviously didn’t take great care of them.
I know right because some people take care of them and it looks great and is really nice on them.
I agree but I feel like you could have said it a bit nicer (no hate intended)
It's why people stop washing their dreads too bc it takes SO LONG to dry properly :/
Yeah I could’ve said it nicer but I’m just frustrated with people trying this hairstyle and not taking proper care of it. Don’t like washing and caring for it? Keep ya damn head shaved.
Emily I think you need to chill out. Why get frustrated over another persons choice in hairstyle? Each to their own.
I know a lot of people have mentioned that mold isn't normal, but it should be said that mold is a good indicator that you don't have the right hair texture for locs.
This!!!
That’s not true. It doesn’t matter your hair type if your locks are thick and don’t dry quickly, they will grow mold. It’s actually very common.
@@HippieHealing it is true though, because curly hair is natrally dry, and dries a lotttt easier and faster in the style, as opposed to straighter hair which stays oily/ moist for longer! :)
@@motherofbuns Hair being dry vs oily has nothing to do with how fast it dries. Those are two different things. There are a lot of people with dry, curly hair that also have a hair texture that dries really slowly.

Caucasian hair is likely to get mouldy in dreads bc it splits and breaks so shit gets trapped. Super curly hair that dreads naturally doesn't have the same problem fyi
mould should't happen period lol
Paper Faith yes I’m pretty sure the Nordic countries had braids and not dreads
All hair splits and breaks and comes out of your head, regardless of ethnicity. It doesn’t matter in terms of that, everyone looses 80-100 hairs from their head a day. Now hair texture, density, and thickness matters.
That's not true at all, afro textured hair can get build up and mold like Caucasian hair, it all comes down to the maintenance method/cleaning methods/products used on the hair.
Mold comes from not using proper products in your hair that leave build up inside the dread and makes the dread moist from the inside, doing this over a long time will eventually cause mold and dread rot. You can also get mold from sleeping on or tying up wet dreads and not letting them dry fully, this will happen regardless of the hair texture.
Not always, they usually only get moldy if you don’t properly take care of them

I've never watched a loc removal video before since I have no intention of ever taking mine out. My loose hair is too slick, springy, coiled, and gravity-defying for me or my family (some of which are hairdressers) to want to deal with, (this is also why mine are crocheted instead of palm rolled, since my hair is defiant and won't stay put).
Plus having my locs just now get to butt length after 16 years makes me a little territorial of all 99 of them. Hopefully I make it through the video.
16 years, good for you girl! I can’t keep the same hairstyle for more than a couple months 😂
Wow that’s a lot of growth 🤩
As long as it doesn't hurt your neck it's great!!
props to you sis💀 idk I want to get starters but I'm mad afraid of the commitment but it seems like it would suit me

Lmaoo it’s called build up. She never properly washed her hair.
You can't wash dreads
She probably tried to wash it but they become like little sponges and if they don't dry completely, that's when mold can form :/
@@soreenloaf7519 You can (and need to) wash dreads, most people with dreads do washings weekly and then deep cleaning soaks every month - few months.
Build up and mold is usually caused by using wax or additive heavy products on your dreads and not drying them properly.
Not washing your hair would give you scalp problems, not mold in your dreads.
And hair problems
@@soreenloaf7519 yes...... You can

I have dreads and have had them for 5 years. There are things you can do to prevent the mold and nasty. Mine have never stank. I soak my hair in a apple cider vinegar solution and wash it with regular shampoo. I think a lot of people don't maintain their dreads. They do require maintenance, just like any hairstyle.

Getting dreads is actually a very big thing in some parts of India, because for hindus our god Shiva has dreads, so most people get them for religious reasons to pay ode to shiva and it's a very big step into devotion obviously because it's a huge change for your self in general

@@poppyseed5270 yeah and it's sad that the hair connects you to your inner peace or something so it's very interesting. I have seen it but nowadays straight hair is like the thing there but I do see some dreads not a lot anymore sadly
@Poppy Seed
Yes mate, I’ve been raised Hindu and basically the story goes like:
The river Ganga, when it came down from the sky to the earth, it arrived worth so much force that if it did hit earth it would have killed everyone and caused like, a huge flood. So Lord Shiva took the river and trapped it in his hair where it got lost in his dreads, and by the time it got out it was much more subdued than before. So it could come to earth without destroying everything.
As for as I know this is how the story goes but if anyone thinks that I’m wrong please don’t hesitate to share your opinion. :)
Dreads were actually invented in India, but were called Jata

To have actual mold in your hair says a lot about her hygiene. This is disgusting
Not really, mold grows in wet conditions, so every time she washes them\takes the shower they just don't dry up after 'cause matted hair is quite a thick and dense clog of hair and the air just doesn't get through. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have mold if she never got them wet lol...
ProxUrAimz exactly the person who posted the comment you replied to clearly knows nothing about dreads
She honestly should have cut that part out
Claire Willow mold is normal in dreads. Mold forms in wet places. Dreads take a super long time to dry. So, most people with dreads have mold on the inside.
I can imagine it's normal to have mold in dreadlocks (because it is very difficult to dry them) but I still think it's gross, sorry
But I wanna clarify that I like dreadlocks!

I'm so happy ur donating! ur gonna make somebody smile! I'm sure your gonna look absolutely fabulous!
ever-heart gaming I know that sometimes it’s hard to get long haired people wigs made out of real people hair, so it made me feel really good because because I donated 14 inches of hair, which is enough for a child at least to go longer than shoulder length so that’s great:)
@@cloudydays6220 yay! I can only imagine the beaming smile on the childs face when they see that somebody donated to them! I'm definitely going to grow my hair as long as possible and cut it short so I can donate it!

I got that reference
HAHAHAHAHHAHA HE DOES
Hey Brad, just to let you know, a more appropriate term for the hairstyle is simply “locs”. Historically, the term “dread” in dreadlocs oftentimes had negative connotations that implied that POC failed to properly care for their hair, thus making it “dreadful” and unkempt. When in actuality, grooming thick, beautiful locs requires excellent maintenance and hygiene. I’m sure you didn’t mean any harm with the title of your video, but I thought I’d just shed some light for future reference. I’m still a huge fan!
Thank you for sharing this!
thanks for sharing that information! i hope it reaches more people so that they become aware too :)
I had no idea, but that makes sense. Thanks for the info 👍🏻
I agree with what you saying, but he’s also right. Dreadlocks is a term used for the unkept, matted look that was seen on white people’s hair. Locs are seen on Africans/Nubians and their descendants as a grooming technique and has a well maintained look.
Lauren Jewel, just to let you know, "dreadlocks" "dred-locs" "dreddies" "dreads"...all of these are common names for the masses of hair that Brad refers to here without cultural affiliation. I have seen all styles and thicknesses - neatly groomed and IDGAF lumpy - depending here in the 21st century depending on the person whose hair it IS. IMO it is the choice of the person who is wearing them as to what they would like their hairstyle to be called. If you woke up one day after your history class and decided the word "dreadlocks" was offensive to you, sweet. Don't use that word. However, please don't shame, disrespect, or otherwise try to embarrass another individual for using a word that has, by now, been used to describe a commonly recognized thing. You call them "locs"? Outstanding. Do that. It would be ridiculous to expect the rest of the world to suddenly adopt that term, especially with the approach of, "I'm sure you'll appreciate this: you're offending some people out here. Now that I have educated you, I'm sure you'll change." K love ya! mean it! byyyeee! 😸💕
Brad always makes my day when he call us beautiful i just get soooooo happy and just makes me feel good about my self
