- In December I moved to Norway and so I had to decide which dreadlock "things" needed to come with me, and what I could leave behind!

I have very long dreads, sleeping time became a fun twisted puzzle to extract myself and my husband. I cut the sleeves off of a couple of long sleeve shirts I did not need anymore. The sleeve works perfectly with a headband to keep my dreadies in order while I sleep.
Something that is not related to dreadlocks: I would really be interested in a video about your new life in Norway (probably on your other channel then I guess?) - what is it like for you? What is different to living in the UK? How do you afford it (I heard it's kinda expensive, then again the same thing seems to be true for the UK.. :D)? And is it harder to be a/eat vegan over there? :) Hopefully you didn't already answer all of these questions... :D If so I'm sorry for being inattentive!
Also, your dreads are looking good as always. :) Very healthy actually!
Greetings from Germany
Hell yes, love the Dollylocks Nag Champa shampoo & tightening spray. And the conditioning oil they sell.. it smells so good I get asked what I’m wearing because it’s not a typical perfume fragrance. I believe nag champa is derived from a flower. I use other perfume oils in my hair when I feel like it as well. Always want to smell extra good.
I just bought the spray. I love the smell. it stays all day.
such a good video as always really happy to see you posting again :)
Absolutely essential for me is my Spiralock :) And my handmade dread soap! Thanks for all your videos! Always fun to watch....
Great to see another video from you Christian!!! Hope you are enjoying Norway... Positive vibes from Ohio, U.S.A.
I use dollylocks rosemary peppermint dollylocks aloe tighting sprey and tighting gel myself love their products!
I have Dollylocks Tea Tree Spearmint! I also love wearing buffs that help keep my locks out of my face.
Thank you Thank you!! ♥️ I was just looking at the dollylocks product vid.. I would love some.. Will order asap due to this Covid19 outbreak I doubt I'll be getting for a long time plus the delivery will be sky high I reckon!? All the best people, Stay Safe and Keep well xx
I use dollylocks nag champa as well. Love it
Dude love your videos, I have two friends that reccomended your videos because they have dreads and it makes me wanna get dreads too.
Hi! I have partial dreads right now. I’m a Caucasian lady with blonde straight hair. So keeping my dreads right is my biggest challenge. And I’ve found Alaffia’s Authentic African Black Soap works best for my hair! It comes in a bottle, a pop top or pump, and it’s a liquid/gel. It’s a multi use soap (2 in 1 for hair and body) , with no chemical ingredients, and natural oils, and ethically made! Win-Win... Win! And I use a Turbie to dry! Don’t know if you’ve heard of Turbie’s but they can come in microfiber or terry cloth, but they’re head shaped towels! And I just palm roll. Sometimes I use a crochet hook to bring in kinks or tighten roots or bring in loose hairs at the roots, but I found if I have a good, consistent palm rolling practice - no need for hooks or additional products! ✌🏻❤️
That shampoo is definitely delicious, I use the same one but the bar rather than the liquid.
Thanks for the rad information as always 💚💙
My essentials are a standing desk and a towel to stand on. That way I can air-dry effortlessly while being on the computer.
My essentials are shampoo and a hair band. Olive in Texas where it is hot so I do NOT leave home without a hair band. I prefer the Dolly Locks shampoo over others so far. I can manage with out a lot of things but those two I won’t go without.
A headband!! I never leave without one❤️👽
my preferred products would be apple cider vinegar, shea moisture shampoo and dolly locks tightening spray.... Ive also got a couple tams that a friend made for me
Tea tree oil must have and big thin handbands 😉👍
Just discovered your other channel, watched you chase a cheeseburger lol. Good to see the upload, awesome tips as always. Gotta get some microfiber towels.
I use the nag champa bar shampoo from dollylocks I also require conditioning oils or some sort of essential oil since I have very fragile fine dry hair
I just discovered this super shampoo bar, it's based on oils so I feel like my dreads and scalp feel so much less dry and itchy. This is definitely my new must have!( if anybody is interested the name of the brand is La Saponaria, and it's the linen oil shampoo)
Plus I started making myself a dreadlock cream that I put on time to time to keep my dreadies moisturized. It's basicly aloe vera with almond oil and some essential oils just to have a fancy smell. Give it a good shake and its done ;)
Great video,my dread essential stuff consist of My dreadhead hq shampoo,u can get it on amazon and it works great no residue left behind,my essential oil with water mix,I prefer lavender and tea tree also bought on amazon👍and I just spray it on them between washes to keep them fresh and soft and last would be a hair band and that's all,my favorite thing about dreads is how low maintenance they really r,just wake up and go😁Dreads r fantastic✌💜💛
Have you tried Vicki’s lockin up shampoo? That’s definitely a must if I’m travel or not traveling
Dreadscapes out Australia make stand the test of times dread headwear!
You have such a lovely smile! 😊
I live by my lush solid shampoo. I use the seanic which smells like the good parts of the beach. And at work i wear a beanie i crochet under my hard hat. Keeps the brewery smell down if my line gets a beer shower. Which isn't as fun as it sounds... When not at work i have a sea salt spray with eucalyptus or tea tree oil and a splash of jojoba. Depating splurging on some other oils. Down side of working where i do... I can't use heavy scents. 😥
Essentials would be a good shampoo, a hair dryer (only in the colder months), and a sleeve or headband of some kind. I'm REALLY wanting to get a microfiber towel, I just need to make a point to order one. I've checked all the stores in my area and none have anything bigger than a hand towel as far as microfiber goes.
My necessary essentials is pretty much the same as yours, my shampoo and hairdryer.
(My prefered shampoo is a ginger shampoo from the bodyshop, but i am also a fan of dollylocks products)
Afterwards is also have hair oils, refreshing sprays from dollylocks, heat protection spray (for When i blow dry)
and i have my hair clipper machine, because i have a dreadhawk with shaved sides :-)
And my hair bands... and here in summertime - my Big summerhat, so i don’t get sunburned in my partings and on my shaved scalp 😄
Just a year ago i always slept with things on my hair, but then i saw one of your videos, and decided to just sleep without anything, and my hair locks a lot better now!
- the same goes with maintaining! I am pretty much more into neglecting now, and Wow the difference! My hair just seems healthier. I love your videos man! They are a great guide...
Same!! All of my necessities are like his and I’ve grown fond of the
Neglect method for months now.
I use a bottle to dilute my shampoo before putting it in my hair. Makes it easier to get the shampoo back out. But yeah, wouldn't go anywhere whithout my shampoo and microfiber towel either.
flymus that's a really good idea!
Forced minimalism is a great thing *winks* Always a pleasure Christian. I adore my microfiber towels!!!
Legendary locks I don’t have the same hair type I’m a 4 but i still look up to ur locks
Caleb Baker what’s that curly Afro like
Welcome to our beautiful country! You like it so far? :)
Well for me i had my dreadlocks in for about 5/6 mouths now. But shampoos i need i guess the tingle shampoo helps my dreads kinda... but smells nice afterwards so i dont complain about having lint in my hair but its annoying as hell as for drying it i use both airdry and blowdryer... i mostly use a blowdryer to get some water out after i deepy towal around get most of it out after that i mostly let my hair airdry most of the day but at the end of day its mostly already dry out.
If you use a flip cap shampoo, just pust a plastic bag cut out between the bottle and the cap and you won't have that problem of it leeking when you are traveling! :) Works for me every time!
Cantu shampoo and conditioner
No itch spray
Hair ties
Murray's loc gel
I think we need to make an official, general and very detailed guide to dreadlocks. With all the knowledge and experiences of the people of all the countries. We can look for a publishing house and organize.
The smell of that shampoo is orgasmic 😍
i mean, I was upset when I spilled shampoo all over my clothes while traveling... if it had smelled like Nag Champa I wouldn't have been so upset.
Until I realise I've wasted Nag Champa shampoo. Ah, there's no winning this one.
Everything smelling like nag champa is the dream but using the quite expensive dread shampoo to achieve that dream probably isn't the most cost effective...
I am in total agreement.
Lazy Dreads How old are you lazy dreads? Are you on any anti-balding treatment cuz most men ur age are balding/bald.
Dr Bronners shampoo fo sho!
Happy late birthday ;)
1 crochet hook and hairband thats itt
My essential... things: Shampoo (some Dollylocks shampoo which I always forget the name of) and a drying hood. The drying hood saves time. And lifes. Cause I'm Batman and have to save lives. And I can't do it with damp hair.
I use dr.bronner's lavender castile soap. When I deep clean I add baking soda and let it sit for half an hour. I am pretty happy with the regimen so far. I will be picking up a tightening spray, I also have dred peppa powder for monthly light maintenance. 💚🙏🐢 as always, your videos are very encouraging, thank you! Have you already mastered Norwegian? It is such a fun language!
I have a question would dry shampoo work for dreads?
Anyone else find the Dollylocks shampoos precipitate out some weird white stuff all over the inside of the bottle and surface of the shampoo after a while? I don't know if they're still ok to use. I also find their refreshening spray makes my hair feel horrible and sticky. I feel I've wasted a lot of money on their products as they aren't cheap. I now use the Suma Clear and Simple shampoo which has so few ingredients and leaves nothing on my hair but I'd prefer to find something without SLES. Anyone have any recommendations?
Wouldn't oils hurt the dreadlock process?
T-gel shampoo. It's the ONLY thing that has helped the dandruff since I've started freeforming!
why was i expecting to smell it when you opened the shampoo lol
Nag champa is a type of incense and its by far the best
Can I get a dreadlock closeups video please!
So I made the big no no. I tried interlocking a few of my dreads. I know it's not recommended I just wanted to try it out. Then I read horror stories online. Are my dreads gonna die?! I knew I shouldn't have done it but curiosity killed the cat. Hellllpppp
Shampoo and conditioner more conditioner
is that a while she sleeps shirt?
Soft bonnet hair dryer: Dries faster, evenly, and is hands free.
🔥
Oi, got a licence for that hairdryer?
Im not to crazy about 1 specific shampoo
I dont use dreadlock shampoo just use normal shampoo and my dreads are fine don’t know if thats bad
Caleb _ normal shampoo is fine it just needs to be residue free
Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strength & Restore Shampoo 👍🏼
thats what I been using
So I just got dreads about a week and a half ago and my dreads are really loose at the roots, about 3 inches of loose hair at the bottom. Do I need to start over or is that normal. BTW I've washed my hair twice already and I don't know if thats why its so loose, would appreciate any help 🙏
My dreads are about a month old and doing the same thing. I think he mentioned in one of his videos that this is normal and once they start to lock they will work their way back up closer to the scalp
One question what do you use to sleep with your dreads in at night... Silly question but curious.....
Mike Sumner yeah great question. Mine always get caught underneath me and I can't roll over.
RobertMarlie I use a t shirt folded over my dreads and Tuck em in and was using a beanie but it gets hot and just isn't as good as the t shirt. Try that's and lmk what you think bro?
I have baby dreads, two months old, and one thing I am really not happy with is when my hair sheds there is a white bulb at the root and it sticks out of the dread a little and looks sort of like dandruff, gross. (I started my dreads myself because I didn't want them started right at my scalp so I have about 1 inch of hair from my scalp to the starting point of the dreadlock.) Any tips to take care of this or make it less noticeable? My hair is a medium brown color.
Sarah Mullis the white dots are the most frustrating thing for me as well. I've been dying with henna to cover them. My hair is dark brown so it doesn't make much difference but it definitely covers the white bulbs.
Thanks Amanda! I have some henna dye so I will try popping that on my hair. How often to you dye it and how old are your dreads? I have henna on my hair now and dyed it before doing my dreads and my only concern is washing the dye out. It took a really long time rinsing my un-dreaded hair, I'm nervous what all that rinsing would do to my baby dreads.
Sarah Mullis mine are like 2 1/2 years. It definitely takes a lot of rinsing. Last time I thought I got it all out but apparently not because after my hair dried, powder flaked out. The 2nd rinse got it all out though. I know people say not to wash frequently for young dreads but I disagree. I freeformed and washed my hair daily until about the year mark when separating got really hard. As long as you aren't brushing your hair, it will dread.
Thank you so so much! I will definitely give this a try!!! I really appreciate your reply, Amanda!
Can you wash dreadlocks locks with baby shampoo?? I planning to have dreadlocks if my hair is long enough later this year or in 2019.
Technically you can, but whether it would be good for the locks in the long term, I couldn't say for sure as it would depend heavily on which specific shampoo you were using. I have never used any baby shampoos so I can't really advise you there.
Lazy Dreads dollylocks is your Best bet. I notice the Dread head , don't like there shampoo... The lock sculpture is excellent for pulling in loose hair's and great handle, I'm More into The freeform Lock's now with some crocheting with the lock sculpture highly recommend!
I've always swore by mane and tail original since the beginning. But just try different things and see what works, everyone's dreadies are gonna be different.
Anyone know how much faster a microfibre towel dries your hair?
I'm not really sure how you want me to quantify it...
@@LazyDreads I guess I mean as in is there a major difference between the time it takes to dry your hair with a standard towel vs a microfibre towel? (I'm terrible with explaining but thank you loads for your reply)
I wouldn't bother taking it with me and having it take up space in my bag if it didn't make a difference :p
@@LazyDreads fair enough, guess that makes sense haha! Thanks man
Your locs look so dark right now!
im not a fan of the dreadlock in the middle of the head
Hmu next time you fly to the U.S. I'll help you find some new shampoo lol
like if he should cut his dreads to about 6 to 13 inches
You look like post malone
I have no idea whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.
