I bet youve been dreading this day since you started them
Sorry ill see my self out
Ha🤣 sooo punny!!!
Total dick haha
We love you locky or not, enjoy drying your hair in a few minutes not a few days ❤️😂
I washed mine last night 22.00 and now it's 17.41 and still bit damp😁
i usually wash my hair in the morning and after a towel and a hair dryer it's dry by night
@@yfraud4213 I'm working on shifts so sometimes I just cannot dry my hair if I wash them in the middle of the night cas the dryer is lowdy.
I was in the morning and so it can dry through out the day in the sun
@@lilraahdreadlockvideosandm1648 Yeah me too if I just can but doing 3 shift work in the office that's not always possible.
Dreads, no dreads... you're still you!! 😀
Dreads are a journey and at some point that journey comes to an end. Definately an expirience I think everyone should go through.
Journeys never end

Not everyone has thick n voluminous hair like him..😅
You helped me have freeform healthy dreads for four years now and I am excited to see where your journey takes you. Please keep us informed, this is wonderful, always follow your heart.
The only thing that bothers me is that you were worried about community, and how you will be received. I mean, it's your hair, your decision and the only thing that should matter is if you're happy with it or not. I know you started this channel because of dreadlocks, but really, I would watch you no matter what videos you would make because you're an awesome person! It will be definetely a new chapter in your life and enjoy it, no matter what you decide to do with your hair next. I would like to hear about your struggles, how you feel now, how is your hair etc so I'm waiting for more videos :)
I see where you are coming from but he did build his UA-cam off of dreadlocks and less of his personality so most of his community motives are to gain info about hairstyles and methods but i will still watch
Wow, tbh, I was and still am a subscriber because of your personality. It's intresting to see a change.
I saw this pop up in my notifications and was like “what? No way!” But change is never a bad thing nor is doing anything for YOURSELF that you feel like will make you feel free. Always loved your channel. You were/are the first and main channel I watched when doing research starting and during my dread journey. Much love!!
Do you wake up and go "oh yeah, i did that".
its ALL good LazyDreads...I've been there too. After removing my 13 year old locs I realized my business . Now I have a natural hair store and became a natural hair and loc stylist here in New England USA. I have the experience, the understanding and the love that I now pass on to people who want to wear locs. ...anyway your new look frames you in a wonderful way. ...be blessed
Love your dreadlock advice videos. I watched all of them before I decided to get mine. enjoy life lazynotsodreads!
Why can't gunther da great do this
MarvinIsKewl I wish I could like this comment 100 times
Hahaha right
ikr
No disrespect, Gunther doesn't know his ass from a whole in the ground...😅
So funny...I try my hardest to avoid his videos. I've accidently clicked on some of good videos cause he changed the name or has multiple pages.. Whatever, when it happens I'm like NO NOT YOU 🤣🤣
I had my dreads for almost 4 years and you were the main driving force in that. Much respect for making the decision that suits you at this point in time.
Well, enjoy your new dreadless journey, I'm 4 months into my second dread journey, love your videos,
Your videos were the reason I finalized my decision to get dreads. I thought about it for months and I found you on UA-cam and I started the twist & rip method that night. It's been 1 year this month for me with dreads and I love the journey, even at 42 years old lolol I'm happy for you and I think it's great that you decided to do what's right for you.
Long time follower here! Gotta say its been wonderful following your journey and your great personality! It's a sad but happy moment for all of us! Cant wait to see what the new chapter will bring to us 😊
Your videos have been a huge help to me over the years. I would definitely be interested in more videos about the removal process. Looking forward to hearing about whatever journey comes next for you!
Good for you! I'd love to hear more about your thought process on removing them. Great to know you'll still be doing videos🥰👍🏽
Happy for you man! Looks great :) keep doing you. Also thanks for all the years of dreads advice! Was super helpful to me. I've since brushed mine out as well, been quite happy with this new journey. All the best!
Well done and I hope you keep making videos about whatever you want. Got nothing but love for you my Dread Guru !!
I Love the little “hair flick” 🤣 You’re still amazinggg. Your hair doesn’t define you. It was just a bonus to the awesomeness INSIDE your head. Waiting eagerly for more videos of your NEW journey in life. Good luck and Good vibes! ♥️
You've been a HUGE source of information - and inspiration - to me, where I trust very few people when it comes to dread advice. What you have given me to help me on my journey has been invaluable. I'm the proud parent of a 4 year old dreadhawk and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made. I'll undoubtedly keep referring to your channel for tips and advice! I respect you and the path you set for yourself - dreads or not.
Stay Awesome!
I just want to say I commend you for being open and honest about your journey-- all it all, that's what it is.
I started my journey 4 years ago and you were def. one of the main people I followed. You are NOT alone in feeling disconnected -- I started mine in a very iffy time in my life and now I'm feeling like I want more control, but their are just getting in that stage where they look and feel wonderful.
I know the time will come when I mean the decision to let go of them but not there yet.
Anyways, appreciate your update, support your journey & will continue to follow you! Even if your videos have nothing to do with hair!
Wow big decision! Thank you for sharing your lock journey, I started mine following you ❣️🙏
Whoa! Dramatic change but i know how difficult this was! Good for you! This will not change how i see you and i will always watch ur videos still. Looking forward to your next chapter.
Enjoy your new journey in life bro I learned so much about dreads from you over the years and please don’t quit UA-cam listen to you speak is very calming
I'm so grateful for all of the information I've gained from watching your videos. My baby dreads are turning 1 year old in April and you're just about the only dread vlog I watched through out this process. You're a chill dude, and you've got a great head of hair, dreads or no dreads. Namaste.
You must do what makes you feel the way you did when you first started your dread journey.thanks for allowing us to walk with you through your life amazing days.looking forward to new and exciting things happening for you.
Thanks for the content. I've got great advice from your videos for freeforming with my "lower chest-length hair", started last October. Bless you, brother.
Awww! And just when I finally went from partial dreads to full dreads! But I understand that it is a personal journey and you know we'll still support you!
So I binge watched your channel while doing my dreads and I just finished as I found this vid 😂
They say a change is as good as a holiday for a reason, so enjoy this new look and new you!
I look forward to whatever you put out in the future 😘
Idk why, but I started tearing up watching this video. still one of my fave‘s on UA-cam. With or without dreads. You‘re adorable. ❤️
You're still awesome even if you got rid of your dreadlocks. You helped me grow healthy locks after seeing a lot of bad videos of people recommend ing wax and products. Youre old videos will still be a great guide for people for years to come. Thank you.
respect my friend. I just finished my last dread yesterday and your videos inspire and helped me out. I think of you many times when I want to freak out about my loss hairs. Your advice on other vids has helped me greatly, but now I respect you more for not allowing your identity to be on your hair. Much care!
yooooo, what’s up man! i think i’ve watched all your videos while i was researching dreadlocks. thanks for all your help, i’m 2 weeks into my towel rub/semi freeform dreadlock journey! keep it wavy.
Hey the dreadlock community still loves you man your amazing soul and who cares if you cut them brush them out or shave your head it’s your head your dreads don’t make you 💓I still support I’ve had mine for 4 years and can’t imagine how nice it is to take a shower so easily and the idea of getting your hair brushed bet it feels wonderful keep doing you man 💕
The two youtubers who inspired me most to go for it and begin my dreadlock journey at age 46, were you and Wired & Stoned -- now both of you do not have dreads. I'm glad you've followed your heart, but I'll miss you. Hope you continue doing videos or some sort. Thank you for all of the advice and videos!
Cool man I've been with dreads for 7years and I still remember your videos from where I was considering growing them. I was never subscribed nor did I follow your videos but this one popped up. Blessings to you
Christian - I originally came to your site for information while I was contemplating dreadlocks. I did try them twice - two different methods - and decided they weren’t for me for social and relational reasons. Either way, I stayed because I loved your personality and your delivery in the videos! Surely still a subscriber and I’m excited to see what you come out with next! All the best!
I just brushed out my (almost) 5 year old dreads-for a lot of the same exact reasons you've brushed out yours. A couple of years ago you actually personally helped me out with my dreads via messenger on snapchat. I am a huge fan of yours-dreadlocks or not, and I want to thank you for always being so kind and helpful. Your new hair looks great and I'm excited to see what your next chapter holds. Much love, my friend.
I wasn't expecting this at all! I think you look great though and I'm glad you're happy with your decision.
I have come to really enjoy your opinions and advice in general, so i look forward to this next stage of your journey.
I would love to hear the more details about why you got rid of them
Kaitlyn it sounded like he grew tired of them honestly
Right on! Do your thing wish you the very best in all your future endeavors.
You have been inspiring and a great source of information during my pre-dread research and consistently since. I came here today to look for some information! My dreads are about a year and a half old now - still maturing and bumpy! Thanks for all of that! Your hair looks great now! You are no less cool for having removed them! ✌🌟☯️ Looking forward to your next video!
Came back after a long time to check on you and I really appreciate that you're walking your way
Good luck man. Much appreciation for your videos. You helped me get started on my journey. Im only 2 years in but going strong. Will still follow you. Your hair looks great by the way
seems like we started brushing our locks around the same time
I have had dreads for 7 years and you channel was a big part to me keeping and maintaining them that being said i wholeheartedly respect and love the decision you have made for yourself much respect every time one love
You helped so much when I was deciding to and then finally got dreads. I would definitely like to see some after dreads videos and a breakdown of the undreading process.
Man this is one of a handful of videos I've commented on, I'm more of a lurker. I just had to say when I went through the awkward stages of dreads no one gave solid advice like you. I wouldn't have dreads today if not for you, and so much of my life has gone differently since I started the journey. You've helped me through tough times man. I'm my eyes you're still the king of dreadlocks
You went with your gut. When I took my first set out I just knew I had to do it. It was healing for me then a year later I realized I was ready for them again. You're still handsome. Love the lil bit of grey wisdom on your temple, you've earned it! Look forward to your next video!
Yes! Please do a Q&A! I’d love that! I’ve been wanting to do dread locks for years and I’ve been watching your videos. I’d love to gain knowledge on anything that has to do with dreadlocks, including taking them out the way you did.
hahaha, loved the bit at the end there. I don’t know if or when I’ll get rid of my dreads but I somehow connected with it, and this video made me glad for you! hair can be very symbolic, knots or none, and it definitely seems like a new beginning in more ways than one!
You do whatever you need to do to be happy and true to yourself! When I took out my first set of dreads it was so freeing like when you first have dreads. I’ve had my second set now for a little over two years 🙂. I would love to see a video on how you came to the decision to take out your dreads. People go through big changes at the age of 25, and I believe you’re there 😉
Yes on the extended video. Or maybe live in Instagram? Those have been awesome.
Dreads or dreadless your beautiful and you have created an amazing community and I want to thank you for that!
I’m 2 years in and while deciding and getting dreads. You videos walked me threw all my questions and made me more excited.
Hope you enjoy life with out dreads.
Your videos were and still are an integral part of why and how I started mine, so for that I thank you! You are awesome with or without your dreads, because your hair does not define you. I know what its like to struggle with the desicion to change but you can always go back :) have fun with your new look!
I just found you and your channel and I am taking your advice for my new dreads. You're still extremely knowledgeable about this topic and I will still keep coming back to your videos with my questions.
You have to do what you feel is right, to hell with the rest of the world. I'd like to hear your thoughts on process if you decide to do a video.
Keep rocking bruh!
Dude it's the end of an era, love your honesty, and your bravery. Facing change like you did, and seeing a new day is inspiring, because your right, you can become somewhat trapped in this image of being this dreadlocks person. Having dread locks doesn't make you an expert on them, and not having dreadlocks doesn't mean that you aren't an expert on them. That last statement was for you lazy dreads, peace out buddy. Thank you for all your love.
Life’s a journey. If you’re not forever growing and possibly changing then you’re missing the point! Thanks for all the videos! You’ve helped me more than you can possibly know!! ☮️
I just got rid of my dreadlocks after 3 years. Thanks for all your videos, they really helped me in the beginning. I didn't have the patience to brush them out, so I shaved my head. Good for you for having the patience.
I just wanna say thank you very much for your videos. I started my dreads about two months ago and your videos have helped me a lot. I appreciate them ☺️
Wowww.....well after watching the vid,,you're still adorable,,with or without dreads ;)
First wind blowing through your hair after removing dreadlocks-best feeling ever :) good luck on the next part of your journey!
I've had dreads for about 3 ½ years and used to watch your channel before I got them and in the early stages. just as I'm planning on removing them I found your channel again. I like your new look with loose hair.
all I can say is THANK YOU for your great advices.
It's been great to experience the whole journey with you!!!
Hey you helped me so much with my dreads (which I only kept for a little while) and I'm so thankful I was pointed to your channel because I like your attitude. I'm absolutely sticking around and hoping to see more videos. And I'd be interested in hearing how you began to feel disconnected from your dreads if you're comfortable making a video on that. Congrats on finding a new freedom :) Also never watched gossip girl but since you and your friends watched 70 episodes doing this you've inspired me to begin haha.
Thanks for all the advice over the years, and helping my dreads to where they are now!
I want to try dreads and I think you are my inspiration . Love the growth.
I have had locs for almost 9 years and for the past 2 or 3 weeks I been contemplating taking mine out. It’s not so much I wanna cut my hair I just see them in the mirror and mess around with them I don’t feel that “connection”. I’ll probably re-loc them in the future but with you doing this it makes me less hesitant to make this change. I just wanted to chime in and say I appreciate you and your content and I support you in whatever path you take my friend.
dude i gotta be honest its a lil bitter sweet to see your dreads go ive watched damn near all your videos and in may 2018 i started my dreads completely natural free form and thanks to you they are coming along great but your dreads will always grow on in our memories
You helped me so much along my dread journey.
It took me 30 days to fully remove mine. 55 dreadlocks, 2-3 hours to brush each one out. Talk about a patience nightmare 😂
We all appreciate everything you've done to help us! And like everyone else says, I agree: we like you for YOU ☺️
After 10 years of dreads I’m brushing mine out , when I started I watched your videos thru out it all I watched you , thank you , you look good either way n you’re rad
I 💯 percent support you man. Do what you feel is right and what is in your heart!
Youre such a wonderful person. Thank you for all your knowledge.
Enjoy your new freedoms!
Im so proud for you!
You do you! Ya look great either way and no judgements if you aren’t “lazydreads” anymore. Proud of you for doing what you wanted despite what others might have wanted.
You're great with or without dreadlocks, will keep watching your content as long as you want to make it :)
Dreads or not you are an awesome person!!! I have always watched and always will, dreadies or not
I would love to hear your full story on why. I'm still loving mine. Thanks for all your youtube content It helped a lot on my dread journey. I'm glad you are doing you.
Congratulations on going with your flow. I removed mine after 5 1/2 years in November. I went to Burning Man last year for the first time, and I think that was a catalyst. It flipped my script on how I want my life to look, and has been clarifying my next steps. So far, I don't miss them, but I remember them fondly.
Whoa! Congratulations on your bravery and NEW Journey!
I respect your decision, sometimes its time for a change. I'm thankful for your videos have been very helpful, informative and entertaining. I look forward to what's next. Happy Growing dreads or no dreads 🌱
Please do the ramble video. I brushed mine out in December & started the new year dread less, it took awhile before I could really sit down & understand the why of it myself, but what you explained in your video doesn't sound too far off from my personal conclusions about mine ...I was feeling trapped rather than feeling free with them. I know I'll have them again one day, but I have some personal growth to do before I return to my journey. Good luck! More videos, please! Thanks for all your advice so far & here's to seeing what the future holds!
Also, I think it's important for people considering dreadlocks to see that they can be combed out, for them to get an idea what to expect of that brushed out hair (as much as can be expected), & to know how tough/easy/emotional that combing out process is. It was something I researched before combing mine out & it's good knowledge to have.
Can’t believe they’re gone! Looking awesome dude :-)
I absolutely adore you. Your a male me. It's been a pleasure listening and wathing your dread videos. I've learned much about the way I keep mine because of you. Thank you for your good vibes and helpful hair tips
Wow! So much hair still. Glad to see this so I know what I'm in for if I ever decide to get mine out.
Wow!
Big change.
Yes! I’d love to hear more.
You must do what is right for you. I respect you. Your videos remain helpful and vital.
Thank you Christian for allowing me to be to be a part of your journey. I have loved every single video you have shared, made me feel like I was a part of something so great! I will continue to watch you here on UA-cam, and hope the universe and mother Earth treat you well!
I’m on day 5 of my first set and I will continue to learn so much from all your videos. Thank you! You look great. 😉
So sad! Your dreads were amazing. I just started my dreadlock journey a month ago but I still wish you well!
You do you!
Change happens.
Oddly enough out of the seemingly hundreds of videos of yours that I’ve watched, I noticed more of a Northern accent in this one.
Anyway, keep on truckin’ man. I’m positive most of the community will stick around - great honest video. :)
This makes me somewhat sentimental but also happy that you've arrived at the last stop of your dread journey. I literally decided to grow my dreads 3 years ago because of you and your videos so I'm glad that i came across your channel. Stay free my man.
P.S. whats your plan with your yt channel now?
*gasp* I never saw this coming. I was just looking for any new videos from you last night. You look great! Whatever you need to do to make your time on this earth what you need to be. And if you decide to do it again, I would love to see your journey from the beginning. If not, I'll watch you anyway. No disappointment here, just a bit of shock lol.
2019-- the Year of Removing Dreads! I've been combing out my 5 yr old dreads for about a month now, one or two at a time when I actually find the time. I figured the patience it took to get through the messy bedhead stage (two years free form for me) to having nice dreads taught me how to have the patience to comb them out. It's kind of become a nice send-off and end to the experience. Eight left as I type this and every once in a while I hear the Braveheart call of "FREEEEEEDOM!" in my head when I notice how easy loose hair is to manage.
Hi I remember watching your videos about 6 years ago and came across this video, you definitely didn't need to worry I'm sure people would still support you with or without the dreadlocks lol :)
You look so handsome! You look stronger spiritually and seem happier. You have ascended to the next level of you..so happy for you.
Hello sir. I loved this video and remember stumbling upon one of your videos yearzzzz ago. I've had my dreads for about 9 years now. I've been dreaming about different hair now and I'm hitting a changing point that I've been trying to accept. I've already chopped more than a foot off and took out a couple. It will be a process but I think I'm ready. I feel what you mean when you don't feel connected to your dreads anymore. I love dreadlocks so very much but I hit this wall out of the blue a bit ago about the change. Even cutting them let off a lot of energy. My head already feels better too from the pulling.
Your personality is refreshing and I wish you the very best you kind stranger :)
In all honesty, I feel proud of you for making the decision to take them out. You started dreads for you and ended them for you, and at this point you have fully experienced EVERY aspect from beginning to end. Time to turn the page to a new life chapter brother! Congratulations :)
Oh, and keep making content please, your channel is so fun and playful, regardless of the subject mater, and it’s one of the best on YT
