A lot of people worried about growing locs because they are IN the corporate world. I started growing my hair with the intention of putting it in locs while I was in the corporate world. I went through the ugly phase and everything but kept my head down and let my numbers speak for themselves. The very first time I put my hair in cornrows I got ALL KINDS of gasps and comments and people making a scene but my brothers on the floor held me up when I felt low. Fast forward to now - Been growing my hair over 3 years and never actually put my hair in locs because I found it fascinating learning about curl patterns and how to style my own hair. I'm about to begin a new job now, have been offered a contract and signed all my paper work so I'm gonna be sure to get my starter locs BEFORE I start this new position SO THAT from day 1 everyone is used to me having locs. My point in saying all this is do you. If you work for a company that would fire you over your hair, you shouldn't be there anyway. If you are trying to get hired by a company that would discriminate based on your hair, it's toxic and you shouldn't be there anyway. If you REALLY want that job, then go get hired and loc up before your first day. At the end of the day, it's YOUR life so live it boldly. You will never regret pursuing the things you are passionate about.
@@turg993 Thanks bro! To update you all, I'm so glad I got my locs. I pierced my nose too following that same mindset in my original comment. Crazy thing is, the environment is SUPER open and encouraging so I'm now sitting here like MAN.. imagine how ridiculous I would feel if I had decided NOT to loc based off of what people MIGHT think about me..... That would probably be worse than receiving any criticism whatsoever. Y'all stay blessed and just go for it! If I can make it in the corporate world with locs and cornrows and intricate braids, so can you!
I was in the military and they wouldn't let me do anything with my hair. Then I started getting bumps on the back of my head from ingrown hairs because they forced me to cut it so low. Now I'm out of the military and I can't have a normal fade hair cut because of the bumps. Guess its time to grow it and lock it up.
I remember my journey years ago 😂. I cut mine off back in 2010. My daughter wants me to grow mine back after seeing my old pics. My 9 year old son wants them now, so I got a appointment booked for him tomorrow. His will definitely look interesting. He’s mixed, with red hair, and freckles 😂.
Man this made me feel better about the whole restarting process, I just cut my hair and it’s killing me but you did it so many times and still bounced back. Thanks for the motivation! Keep your locks they’re apart of you it shows your character
I appreciate it and I’m glad I could help! Yea starting over sucks but once you finally get it right you’ll love it lol. I’m going to make sure to stay locd
I was locked for 2 and a half years until i cut them but I’m growing my second set back now ... first thing is to just do it like Nike second is to just embrace the first 6 months to a year for anybody on the fence about it
+Diallo Chambers No problem, I'm glad I could help at least one person from going through the same mistakes. Keep it going, even when it's itching real bad lol you won't regret it 💯
Diallo Chambers hey I'm Dominican and my family thinks dreads are a horrible thing only a dirty person would do, me I personally love the look but I'm loosing faith in the bc my hair grows fast but when I dread them it takes forever it's mainly the older generation that hates it but my mother dose them she doesn't care how I look but wants me to live my life good but I don't know how to take care of my dreads
Jordster Gaming there's lots of videos on UA-cam of how to take of them, and yeah you won't notice much growth until they mature because of shrinkage, but keep pushing through!! ✊🏾
Just starting my journey young brotha! And I'm an old head 😄 Appreciate ur journey. I see what I have to go thru, but I'm ready... Peace & Many Blessings! ✊🏾
BRO! THIS JUST GAVE ME SO MUCH MOTIVATION! I just got my twist two days ago and had so many questions on how it will look at certain stages and how long it will take and this answered every single question man. THANK YOU!
Dang, sometimes drinking a lot of water and sweating when working out helps to grow I think. I’ve heard of people taking vitamins also I think they were for Skin hair and nails
He actually smart for starting over so many times, espcially becuz of how fast his hair grows. Better to get it right if you plan on rockin em for a long time.
@@tiki9032 the ugly phase is basically that point in your loc journey where your locs are too short to put up/style basically. typically for most its between the 3-7 month period. for me atleast once i hit about 6-7 months in, my locs were long enough to put into a mini ponytail so i didnt "suffer" for too long, and now im 4 yrs strong. but honestly, if you love your hair, there will bee no ugly phase. youll accept your locs as they are and appreciate the growth and journey so much more
my locs look a lot like yours right now but they're high top fade locs and i've only had em for 4 months and on going, love the video and keep it up :D
I am glad you final have the locs you wanted! They look great by the way. If you have to have a taper, make sure it's someone you trust and they are clear what you are going for!
+Lilmissfreens LOCBeautiesUK Thank you, and yea I learned my lesson twice about the taper lol. Communication is a major key, I should have showed them a picture of how I wanted it instead of trying to describe it.
Congrats on that 1 year Anniversary good bruva!! Crazy how time flew. Dope content and pics too #StayLocd & def look forward to seeing ya growth as ya journey continues #Blessings...dope instrumental btw too.
Geezus so many do overs.. lol I was like what the fuuuuudge is going on here.. lol Do not cut these dreads no more ! Your hair is badass keep it going, I cut mine last year an plan on starting over this year but I wanted to rock the baldy for a year before starting my dreads because I'm never cutting my hair again! So good luck on your journey 🤘🏽
this remind me so much about my last two journeys lol its really cool you documented each one! nicely done bro. im on my third set as well. just subbed
Marsel P to add to what @dadirtytroll was saying, how long did it take your hair to grow from a fresh cut to where it’s at around 13:05? I’m about 3 full months in, 2-3 inches of hair so far
DaDirtyTroll damn bro, I’m sry to hear that, been hearing a lot of mixed experiences with starters so I’m trying to get all the perspectives so I can prepare cause I’m all in at this point
I usually go once a month sometime 4-6 weeks because they are fully locked. In the beginning I would try to go every 4 weeks just to keep them maintained
I just have twist in my hair. I've been growing mine since January of this year. Do you retwist them your self when it gets Frizzy? How often would you retwist them. And long did it take to loc?
Mines gonna be on the first few weeks part lol it's going to start off ugly but that's ok I'm getting it tomorrow my friend just got his dreadlocks 3 days ago but I got more hair then him so I'm good
yea man yo hair grow pretty damn fast. but what month did yo hair just kind of start lockin and when you got yo hair done, did you leave them alone until they locked or did you go get them retwisted when it was time?
I been watching this video before I even started my dreads lol, I just started on the 3rd of this month. It’s been a week with my coils and my mom and my brother can already tell my coils are growing
Nine months in it may seem like a long time you’re going to have to wait before your dreads actually start looking good and locking up but that time will fly by really fast so just trust the process no matter how long or short your hair is you can still get dreads but it’s easier to do it on long hair
Better to take them out now than have to cut it and start Over lol but make sure you tell them and remind exactly how you want it done because they always have an idea of how they want to do it in theirs
You remember how much it was for starter locs? Im thinking bout doing this .. professionlly done .. but i'd hate cutting if not done right , don't "look" right , etc .
I'm about start my goddess locs, I enjoyed the video thanks much, this damn music though 😒😂. I had to turn off....S/N I couldn't help but notice how high you were 😂😂😂
In 2017 I was about 5 months in my dreadlock journey but i cut my hair because I didn't have the money to keep getting them retwisted. Now in 2019 I have allot of hair and I want to try again this time because my hair would have been long if I didn't cut my hair. I can't wait to start over again 😳
Man I feel you it is a bill lol I would try to wait like 2 months instead of 1 month to get retwisted so you can stack up and maybe wash it yourself self at 1 month. Or I would try to learn how to retwist it myself
Hey... did you just do this once (in September) and then just let them grow or did you like twist them everyday so that they stay curled up? If I twist them by finger or sponge, they just get loose on the next day. :(
Yea that’s the hardest part about it. When mine itches, I try to scratch it and if that doesn’t work I try to spray it with moisturizer or sometimes I even put a little bit of water in my hands and then rub my scalp with it.
question bro. So i have dreads on top of my head but the back of it shaved but i was thinking about letting my whole head grow. Should I just grow the back out too or should i just cut it all off and start over?
When I was growing my Afro for my dreads I used to do the nudred brush to get my Afro curly but I didn’t try to start the dreads with it. I preferred going to the shop. For now I spray my hair with this stuff called guava infused mist every few days and I wrap t up with a dread cap or silky bandana at night
What do you think I need to do to get my hair to look like it does at 13:10 This is a look I've tried to get several times but every time I try it never ends up as I want it to.
I just use this spray my friends mom makes it has grape seed oil and some other stuff I’m not sure of. I’m going to find out for real what the shop uses to retwist cus I keep forgetting
Sooo like i have a hair full of dreads but I have 6 dreads at my crown area... started them 3 weeks ago so see the hair is thinner there... and it wouldn’t loc so I retwisted it to have thicker dreads there...should I keep the 6 dreads or go back and have the loctitian do her thang. I believe she had me with like 12-14 dreads there
+Fleece johnson Preciate it! At the shop I go to they used some type of loc and twist gel but it wasn't mango and lime, then they would put me under the dryer. I haven't tried taking any vitamins. I do drink a good amount of water, I fill up a 32oz cup about twice a day so I'd say about a gallon a day sometimes less. For my routine, I wear a dread cap at night or whenever I take a nap, when I wake up I use my hands as a comb to "wake my dreads up" because they're always flat. I use a shower cap when I get in the shower. I was only washing once a month for the first year but now I am going to go wash every 2-3 weeks. I have a spray bottle with 4/5 water and 1/5 of oils in it like grape seed and some other stuff I get from my friend's mom. I spray that on my head every other day to keep it moisturized. I also was using Jamaican black castor oil maybe 3-4 times a month on my hairline an scalp to help with growth.
My purpose for starting over was I didn't like how my dreads looked, I wanted them to be thicker. I tried combining them but I didn't like how that looked afterwards so I cut them off. I guess the benefit would be that you know how your hair grows and it'll be easier to choose if you want them thick or thin. Also it's easier to maintain them because you already know what to expect.
Marsel P I'm twisting my boys hair for the first time and I was under the impression the locks thickens over time. Thank you for the clarification brother.

When I started my locks I went right over here like a yr ago and I keep watching 🤘🏽🤘🏽
What do you think I need to do to get my hair to look like it does at 13:10 This is a look I've tried to get several times but every time I try it never ends up as I want it to.
Do you put anything in your hair cuz my hair almost at a year and its lookin like yours at 8 months
I just use this spray my friends mom makes it has grape seed oil and some other stuff I’m not sure of. I’m going to find out for real what the shop uses to retwist cus I keep forgetting
Marsel P you find it yet lol??😅
@@ZayMarsel please let us know, im about to be 3 months into growing my fro, need all info possible lol

What kind of Dreadlocks are those?
I started with comb coils
I will be 6 months this month. Mine isn't locking as quickly as yours.
A- Rocks what hair type u have
🔥🔥
Very inspiring 👏
Getting my dreads tomorrow, just wanted to see how I wanted this and how they would look when I first start them
That’s a bet I have around 84-85 dreads right now and they are thicker the first set I had about 120-130 and they were smaller but still good size
1 year 4 months is 11 months for me probably caz i style an retwist often
DAMN! What do you out in your hair man? Also, which shampoo do you use and do you wrap your hair at night?
Cant wait to get my dreads
You can get a curl sponge until it’s time to lock it up, I think that may help lol
But my hair to big to be sponge that's what my barber told me
Hey! Have you ever counted your locks? Aproxamatly how many do you have?
what kind of style is that in 15:32
They were comb coils it was just the was they twisted them and clipped them down so some of them were going to the side and some to the back
Wow cant waint mine reach there
Between your 6 to month on the third set how many retwists did you have?
Are those interlocks or finger coils?
The 3rd set go way harder....
Preciate it, I finally got it right lol

@@liljinn4962 you
Growth crazy
What products did u use?
Do u take any vitamins?
How much water do u drink aday on average?
Whats your regeimn / routine?
+Fleece johnson Preciate it! At the shop I go to they used some type of loc and twist gel but it wasn't mango and lime, then they would put me under the dryer. I haven't tried taking any vitamins. I do drink a good amount of water, I fill up a 32oz cup about twice a day so I'd say about a gallon a day sometimes less. For my routine, I wear a dread cap at night or whenever I take a nap, when I wake up I use my hands as a comb to "wake my dreads up" because they're always flat. I use a shower cap when I get in the shower. I was only washing once a month for the first year but now I am going to go wash every 2-3 weeks. I have a spray bottle with 4/5 water and 1/5 of oils in it like grape seed and some other stuff I get from my friend's mom. I spray that on my head every other day to keep it moisturized. I also was using Jamaican black castor oil maybe 3-4 times a month on my hairline an scalp to help with growth.
at what length did you get the first twist
Did the horse 🐎 live?
What is the purpose/benefit of restarting the process? Thank you brother.
My purpose for starting over was I didn't like how my dreads looked, I wanted them to be thicker. I tried combining them but I didn't like how that looked afterwards so I cut them off. I guess the benefit would be that you know how your hair grows and it'll be easier to choose if you want them thick or thin. Also it's easier to maintain them because you already know what to expect.
Marsel P I'm twisting my boys hair for the first time and I was under the impression the locks thickens over time. Thank you for the clarification brother.
Did you start with 2 strand twist?
Nah I started with comb coils
