Daniel Hunt me 😂🔥
Daniel Hunt Yessuh😂
Yup
I use to make dreads at weekends and then i barber cuted all of my hair now i cant even twist my hair with my hand
dam cuz I wanted to know how to get dreads but gunther u givin me algebra questions in this man!!!!
I love how you broke this all down! Just in case this helps anyone reading through the comments I have straight fine but thick hair and I highly recommend only using rip and twist to start your dreads. I ended up removing my first set because of the crochet method!!! It looks great at first but within two to three months became my biggest regret. The ones that were only rip and twisted annoyed me at first but were doing wonderfully at the 6 month mark. I am going to start another set after my hair grows back a few inches from where I cut it (the crochet method also made it a major headache to remove them). Happy dreading everyone!!!
Just started the twist and rip method. What do I do to them after the fact. Do I rub them everyday or what
@@samcollins4926 “do I rub them everyday” 😭
This dude is sending us back to school😂😂

Great video. Twist and rip done 3 weeks ago and now crochet hooking. Fab methods x
I am 3A and will be starting my loc journey soon. Great video!
Thanks for this..this is literally the only useful dreadlock video I ever watched..and now I am sure I am on the right track..
This was so far beyond being helpful, I feel like I had someone invested in my hair and knowledge! Thank you brotha, I'll be learning from the tube and my friends since my family hasn't used dreads since they were on the reservations! You da goat for sure
You asked what hair type, I have 3B(defined sharpie diameter curls) that goes almost to 3c when taken care of well and down to 2c if I use bad products and such.
Had mine for about 5 years and just now watching this, I definitely have a curly pattern
Thanks Gunther i’ve been looking for this for a while!
I have a 3b hair type and I used twist and rip and afterwards blunted the ends and brought all the hairs in with a crochet hook
I love your vids. I was thinking about getting dreads like your old ones.
wow u went in bro, overload info! lol luv it thank u
Love the vid man keep up the great work 💯🤞🏽
Pine-Sol commercial made me feel nostalgic and she has locs too ! Good sponsor.
I’ve had 2 sets of locs (full head and high top) and I regret getting rid of them. I’m impatient and waiting to start my loc journey again. Also, I think I’m in the 3B, 3C section
Your the 🐐 thank you for all the good info I watch all your vids and subscribed. I got straight hair my hairs like a 2a and I started my journey about 3 months ago so I have a lot of time before the mature. Can you make a video to help out with Re-twisting roots and just training the roots and how to maintain re growth? Thank you your the best man 🙌🏼
Just started mine on straight hair. Twist and rip wasnt really working so I searched it up and found the backcombing method. Its worked really great for me. Just need to practice more with crocheting. I got the frizzies!!!! lol
I have my dreadlocks since February and i did them myself by crochet hocking and they broke twice because i messed up but now im happy af
I have a 2c and I used crochet hooking and it worked just fine
I have very straight hair and used the crochet hook method. I'm coming up on a year and couldn't be happier with the result.
The only thing that was even slightly an issue was that for the first couple months, they looked unnatural and they were very tight.
After the first few months though I got through the "ugly" phase and now almost a year later I'm so happy with them and would recommend this method for straight hair any day!
Yes i have straight light curl 2c
I back comb ,twist then crocket, i love it 3 yrs now ❤
I have 1A hair and did twist’n rip and crocheting for maintenance. They’re five years old and 24 inches long!
I looked at your profile picture and they look amazing
Hey I think you are great! I’m glad I found you. I had dreads in my 20’s, before UA-cam. 😂 we did lots of stuff to try and make them happen. Ultimately I bought some beer an had friends over. They helped me section it off and twist/ripped my way into dread-dom. I had to chop them for personal reasons.
I have 4 kids now 20 years later and I’m watching your channel enjoying the great info and positivity!
I may do half dreads? After my kids my hair turned from bone straight to 2C 3A 😂 Plus some grey sparkles!
Anyways, you have a wonderful day!
Love you Gunther dude 🖤💯💪
Great video, I've learned alot. 👍🏾
thanks for the informative video. don't forget about sister locks.
My next set of locs will be the comb coils or
free-form method
I have half my head done and I’m getting the rest done tomorrow
How is having dreads so far?
aderall deible it’s really nice bieng able to just get up and get on with day still waiting for the ones nearer to front to lock up properly but it’s rlly good so far
@@Leoar28 good thats awesome! Have fun with them 😁
@@Leoar28 go crazy with them homie 😁
@@Leoar28 how bout now homie
Free form for 35 years. Never twisted. It's a Blessing!
I've dreadlocked my hair a few times and am trying again, with only two in my hairline, I feel so ready and know exactly how I'm going to start my hair babies! Thank you so much for this easy to follow video and mapping!
Love your videos - I have 2a hair and want dreads... your videos help with tips and expectations
because u have dreads r u white or black i dont mean to be racist but im white and i want dreas as well so wut do u think
@@qmfjb2434 Nah i’m sorry i don’t think it would work but you could always try. Or go to the barbers
@@qmfjb2434 are you 10? 💀
@@mir6709 bruh I was asking a question, that’s wut the comment section is for(r u ten?)
I am mixed race White n black, bleased with the 4c hair. Love ur content
After watching a lesser channel on locs then coming here right after i notice the difference in video editing. Whoever edits your videos are A1
Backcombing leaves the chat*
Praise God! Yessir great info, thanks and God bless!
2b I think I have🤔 I started my locks 2,5 week ago. I made a short video on the process for now. I love them and to see what is happening.
I used backcomb and crochet.
Informative.
I’ve been doing twist rip then twist w gel and they’re coming out fire
I started my relaxed with braid loc.method and 7 yrs later they are beautiful
GREAT VIDEO. i was thinking of getting them. my barber was like no. but i was like yeah im getting them. i just took of my braids the other day. so im gonna hit up the girl that is gonna do them.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Learning much
Start mine next week. Straight hair 😎😎

I have two strand twists but now I'm getting a crochet hook
An inspiration
Great information...
Big tip with your hair fibers spray from the side at a angle
Love Locs.
Thank you
U might go with the semi-freeform rout
Dude you should be teaching classes for hair. Very informative
Who else is watching this with over a year of their dreadlock journey
11 months today
Almost 2 years for me
i
7 years lol
12 months today
4c and I'm thinking about the two strand twist method.
yo nice video gunther! I have a 3a hair type :D
I just started my first set with 2 strand twists on 3c 4a hair.
If there would ever be a reason for me to cut all my hair off, I'd start my second set free forming. I think there is a big difference in how they develop in long hair vs short hair
Hey! I think from his diagram, I might have 3c or 4a as well. My plan is to freeform. I would like to ask, if you could explain what you meant about locing and long hair. I ask because my hair is probably a few inches past my bra strap. It grew so much not really doing anything to it. What is your opinion about freeforming. With this length? Thank you ❤
Ninti 999 they seem to get much thicker when you start with longer hair most of the time. There is a free former on UA-cam who started her first set with longer hair and got really thick locs that time around. The second set she started from a buzz cut and here locs are much thinner, without doing any type of seperation herself
@@louel83 thank you for your insight. I'm really excited to get started.
Ninti 999 The UA-camrs name is the queen po
Yes! It's exciting! It's a really exciting process. It's not just physical, because you get to learn so much about yourself, because of all the changes you have to go through.
@@louel83 I follow her. Queen Po is awesome!! So inspirational! I agree totally. My decision to loc my hair is a spiritual one.
Simple and easy understand ❤
I know this video is older. I have a weird combo of hair types, but overall I'd say I'm maybe 2A, and most of my hair has zero texture!! Not owned a brush in over 10 years, and barely need to comb it because it just stays so smooth! It took me over 50 hours (over the course of 2 weeks) to get through all of my hair. I did twist&rip with crochet and interlocking, and I killed my shoulders back-combing too. Each dread took nearly an hour; longer if I had to pause to do anything else. Never been one to wash my hair often, so my scalp is used to me going long period without washing (like you talked about in a different video). I lightly washed and dried my hair in the afternoon and allowed it to dry mostly in the sun. The next morning, almost all of my dreads were half unlocked! Took me another 4 days just to get them retwisted. My husband has been picking at me because I went from doing nearly zero maintenance on my hair to spending all my downtime to maintain dreads lol.
Theres value in starting from the bottom. Regrow it and let the dreads really come in that line is killing me
🔥🔥🔥
On the road to getting dreads, I have an Afro rn and using the sponge wish me luck y’all
Preston Mills how are they lookin now?
How is it going ?
I did start my dread by the braidlocks way and it took 2 month to get mature
I got liken 4b-4c sponge twist all day
Imma need that intro song
Interlocking is good
I twisted with gel and I’m 2 months deep😭💯they coming out pretty good
Update ?
This was VERY informative! I appreciate this! I decided to do semi-freeform with 2 strand twists. And this Wednesday I'll be hitting the 2 month mark. If I would have seen this before I started my locs, I MIGHT have done instant locs but I'm doing semi freeform for a reason. There's a reason I need to go through "the journey". :-) Bless up!
I did freeform 3c hair took forever.... Sadly I'm my journey I didn't like them and cut them out and then later appreciated them..... But realized it was me I had to accept
3c/4a hair great video by the way! I started my journey 10/2/2020 braidlocs and mediumsmall size
sup man. this video was great.
started my locs in jan w the sponge rub method and they're looking pretty dope.
i've got a question: you mentioned that one could start dreadlocks by braiding the hair and leaving it braided. wouldn't this be an effective method for straight hair as well seeing as the braids loc up and muture naturally over time?
love your content.
stay blessed x
I mean technically, but straight hair is (typically) very elastic so with that in mind it is braided tether but may come out becaue it isnt locked up
Need some pics of the types
I'm getting dreads this week
I’m a 2C been growing my hair since getting out the military 4 years ago......20 inches and started freeforming by accident about 2 months ago.....
Did your hair look straight when short? I think mine could be 2c as well...
yeet offcial yeah it didn’t start to get wavy until about 6 inches and curled up more the longer I let it grow. But from the root to that 6 inches or so is still the most straight. If that makes sense
This guy got a math and science to this lol
I have 4b hair and I’m thinking of interlocking the roots of the two strand twist I currently got in but I also plan to pull it out in a couple years. What’s the best method to use so that I’m able to pull it out?
Just keep the 2 strands in and let them lock
Hey Gunter, as someone who's about to start locking his hair (white Scottish person btw with type 1 hair) would you be able to go through the "washing process" when you have newly t&w+ch dreads. In your last vid you said "the more you wash the quicker it locks" but how do I wash without my hair opening up and going straight again? Help would be appreciated
You could just section it up and put it in a few buns that way it won't become undone
Subscribed ✅
So my hair is straight but I permed it and it’s starting grow back straight. What should I do?
Im mixed and got 3A hair. my hair starting locking after a month with twist n gel
Where would backcombing fall into this?
I have 1/2A hair and all I keep seeing everywhere is the “backcombing VS twist and rip” battle…
Brooo I'm in phoenix too
Watching this when I already have dreads
Same
How long have you had them, mine r 2 months old on today
Mine are almost a year
bradly haustman have u ever interlocked?
bradly haustman I’m finna interlock mine and make a vid about it
I think I’m a 3c or a 4a my hair is naturally curly like it’s froish lol I’m one week into towel rubbing and semi free forming this is my second set of dreads
I’m in between 2c and 3a. I envy those who have hair that lock easily.
Addi G I decided to grow out my hair a little longer and revisit the loc process later on.
My hair type is like a mix of 3A, 3B and 3C and I wanted to know what method would be good for me
I started my dreads journey with two strands twist last week. I’ve got shoulder length hair (4c) how long do you reckon it’d take for me to start doing the rope twist style?
Can I sponge with 3a-3b hair then semi freeform look and a some twisting to maintain, tryna go for a Scarlxrd look, ik it'll be tough but ive got patience
I have curly hair and I'm free forming from a buz cut it's been a year and my hair is about 6 inches and it just started to lock probably one more year for a full head of free form locks I'm guessing idk
this man has made so many videos of dreadlocks how does he come up with them lol
Hey Gunther I’m doing the braidlocking method I’m 3 month strong and so far I can see progress in mixed with 3C-4A any advice other then washing my hair vro I would really appreciate it
How’s your journey going so far? we have the same hair texture and I just started my journey with the braiding method as well
Doused Beauty Tv oh I’m already dreaded up I just reach 10 months I switched to crocheting and back combing if you wanna see how my dreads look I documented the whole journey on my Instagram my Instagram is Xtrapsouls_18
Can you do a video on clockwise rubbing
My hair type is a 2c to a 3a
I have a 4c hair type and I’ve had dreads for about 10 months and now even though I have 4c I’m trying out my natural hair and natural hairstyles like braids and 2 strand twists and I like it but I kinda miss my dreads
i have like 3c but my hair is different textures on different areas it’s like 3a-4a but most of it is like 3c
I got curl hair imma do crochet hooking
What is a good hair length to start at? I have 4c hair texture.
