Sooo, my boyfriend has been growing his baby dreads for 2 months. I told him I knew how to do them lol but I don’t, and he’s on his way to my house right now. I hope this video can help 😭😭
I honestly don’t agree with the two week retwists, especially with starter locs. Don’t be a perfectionist. Allow your hair to grow and gain new growth so you can have healthier locs in the long run and your hair will definitely get longer faster. EMBRACE THE ROOTS! EMBRACE THE FRO UNDER YOUR DREADS!
Facts 💯. Healthy head of locs starts from the root of the hair Hence locs need to be retwisted when there's adequate regrowth to avoid damage and achieve fuller healthier locs over time.
Long as I been alive 2 week retwist was a very normal thing amongst dread heads and wax was too it was only recently I heard people denounce it I wanna say 6-7 years ago also I've seen plenty healthy dreads who started with two week retwist with wax
I’m 2 weeks in.. my hair is shorter than his but looked the same as far as the frizz and growth. I desperately need a retwist but didn’t have the funds to go. I am SO glad I found this video. I think I can do this on my own. Thank you for posting !
Thanks for this tutorial. This was the first video that helped me do a salon finished look on my husband locs. They finally looking like something. I used the clips just like you said and it made a world of difference in his length and neatness. You did a great job helping a kitchen beautician over here 😊
Thank you for taking your time and making this video I wanted to see short dread locs retwist and I found this video so thank you for taking you time making videos
Love these video, only thing I'll be changing is retwisting every 2 weeks is to soon. I started my son's with 2 strand twists, retwist every 4 weeks!! Washing each time!!!!
This video was amazing I have started my fiancé’s hair and would like to know what are the best twist gels I can use and also I will be getting the double clips. ❤️
Sasha Fearless update: I cut my hair to go on a journey to better learn and accept my hair and myself, I am currently at two almost three weeks now that I have restarted. I have a high top so yea high top locs this time, wish me luck 😊 I am not cutting them this time I have come to accept my hair.
Hi! So glad I found your page! I’m starting my bf’s locs next week and I would love to know what product you used on this client’s head? I’m trying to go the super healthy way and avoid beeswax and anything else that will cause buildup. Thank you!!
Hello I have a question my son has soft hair and his dreads are long so what products would you use to keep his dreads to last longer ? Also his dreads are different sizes what should I do and do I use a comb for this ?
Hi, is that Clear Gel you applied to the hair before twisting? Or is it Aloe Vera Gel? Whatever it is it gives a Beautiful gloss to the locs. Thank you so much for sharing your awesome work!,,
Hi! My 12 year just started his loc journey and I wanted to learn how to retwist myself bc there are not many “natural” salons near us I trust. I looove your video! Thank u so much! But what is in the bottle u are applying? Oil? Gel?
I'm glad you said that about the clips. I started my locs 3 months ago, and I clip the root and not the ends, and they be looking so crazy lol Thank you for sharing that 🙃
Most likely oil. U can use any oil, i use extra virgin olive oil by preference, just the one in my kitchen. some use castor oil. Any carrier oil really, as long as its a natural oil, then u should be fine.
She replied to a commenter a year ago and said: “I’m using the Get Twisted Hair Studio Gel. The owner of the hair salon makes it and has it shipped in. “ (Most of us are wanting to know the same thing)
I just started my Dreadloc journey going on two months now for the first month I been using tee tree oil now I’m using the mango lime oil product what other products I can use to help my hair grow and have healthy scalps
darren well yes tree oil is amazing. What you can do is add tea tree oil, peppermint oil and rosemary to your conditioner. You can moisturize your hair with a leave in spray and add the combination from above to your leave in c itinerary spray. That will soothe your scalp and keep your hair moisturized
I’ve been hunting UA-cam and IG to find the best video to help me with the comb twist motion because I feel I been doing it wrong 😑 and THIS video has really helped me.. saved it to my playlist 🙌🏾🤩
I’m sure this was already answered somewhere in all these helpful comments, but what’s in the bottle that you put on each time you separate?? Gel like material?
Hello hi can you do a video on someone with a starter loc and then go 3 months or maybe even 2 months so I can get a better estimate of how my hair would come out
IF YOU START OFF THE LOCS WITH PLAITS, HOW DO YOU RETWIST THE ROOT ? JUST TWIST LIKE REGULAR AND CLIP AND THEN LEAVE THE PLAIT WITHOUT TWISTING IT? .... SORRY IF THIS QUESTION IS CONFUSING LOL.
I learned so mmm much watching your video. You did a great job demonstrating how to retwist. I just started mine on my own and my hair is mega short so no clips yet but thanks to you explaining how to put them in I'm excited. I will divinity get in touch with questions I will have. I want to change my name to 4c Lady D 😄
Also not to be mean or a stickler but the “you don’t want that” stuff is kinda iffy. Some people do like the “messy” look and it’s not at all a bad thing. Hair can’t be perfect all the time, that’s why people have bad hair days. Part of having locs is embracing the frizz and the slight imperfections
I completely agree with you on that.🤔. I like the 1 week old hair myself. Some people though have to have s conservative look for their jobs. Unfortunately people judge the frizz
Thank you so much I learned how to do these on my son hair he loves them but he loves them to the point he won’t stop touching them and they’re coming unraveled
Thank you so much Queen they are shutting down salons where i am and i didnt know what i was going to do about my locs i just got instant locs last weekend i didnt know what i was going to do
I’m going to start my own locs tomorrow actually I’ve been watching a lot of videos on how to do it on my own I was just wondering after I twist them how long should I wait to give myself a retwist?
I have been trying to get the pinning down. My 3yo son's hair is cut in this same exact style. I have the same pins you are using in the video and when I double pin it flattens out the loc where the pin is placed at the bottom. If I don't put a pin at the bottom then the bottom will curl and flip up!🥴
I’m a month in already with my loc journey. How do you wash locs without unraveling them? I’ve used a stocking cap and it has helped but I want to really get the scalp clean
Locced Priincess if you’re already at one month don’t worry about it, use cold water and put shampoo over and rub it along the dreads and not with fingers all in there unless you can see your scalp.
May I ask why you suggest a retwist every 2 weeks? I usually hear anything from 4-8 weeks. But I’m doing research lol not sure if it’s a personal preference
I say 2 weeks because I find that when people wait 4-8 weeks, there tends to be a big ugly ball( happens when hair is maturing), at the root of the loc. When retwisted, the ball doesn’t lay down smoothly. Retwisting every two weeks, I’m the beginning, gets rid of that peoblem
Searching all these dam videos .an finally can cross yours to answer my question..to help with how I can fix my son starter locs...they months old now..but when I retwist..I can't get them to stay like this like from beginning..they puff in middle or end...I now know I need to get dif clips an to clip twice..top an bottom..thanks....iv done this process your doing when started his...thanks
So happy to help. I used to have the same problem years ago. I o my clipped the roots so after it dried the middle and ends were puffy but the roots were nice. NO MORE
@@SashaFearless right...he also in the budding stage also...frustrating stage..his dad's locs are down his back..his older sister has locs a few years old..her mom started hers an did the journey with her..I do my nephew locs to..who is same age as my son..but he started before my son ..so lil longer..I do his dad locs ...an now there is a baby sister..I'm just gone be in hair all time now..I refuse the journey now ...but yea I go get the different clips before I retwist son hair this week.
just started comb coils yesterday when im 2 weeks in what should i retwist them in since we are in pandemic there is no hair salon open to get them perfesonaly done
Love your video, very informative, with easy to follow advice. Amazing results on the young man you was working on, am I right, he will have to wash his hair again in 2 weeks? I’m in day 3 of my locks and still so in love with it and looking forward to the journey. Thank you for sharing💖🙏🏽💖
M. ella it’s ok, that’s normal, the back is usual the first part to untwist. Don’t worry it’s normal, this is why I recommend a Retwist every two weeks until it matures. Tie it down with a scarf or Durga every night and every chance you get, it locks faster and your twists can stay longer
This was the most well explained video I've seen! Thank you for all the information! 💗
A’dauminique Beauty I’m so glad I could help😊
@@SashaFearless what kind of product do you use to twist
I agree. Really nice job. 👍🏽
@@SashaFearless please wat is the product u use
I agree too. Taught me a few tips for doing my sons hair
Sooo, my boyfriend has been growing his baby dreads for 2 months. I told him I knew how to do them lol but I don’t, and he’s on his way to my house right now. I hope this video can help 😭😭
Girl me asf 3 weeks ago but it’s super easy just twist it tight then clip
🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@mrmurdock2u247 I don't understand
Yes I do I started some locks 3 weeks ago and I would love to see different kind of dreadlocks

I also noticed you said hair HAS been washed.. is it ok for me to wash?
Nykicia Jefferson absolutely, a light wash is good. When I say light I mean wash it once just to get any dirt or excess oils out
Nykicia Jefferson I’m happy my video gave you the courage to do it on your own. Let me know how it turns out
The frizz is normal leave it.
@@Savi-digital since this comment I’ve actually started my journey over. I’m 4 months in and loving every bit of it.

I put starter locs in my son's hair last week. I would think 2 weeks would be too soon for a retwist? I'm going to try it!
Great job.
My son is into 4 months and hos hair already start locking it. I wash his hair 3 times since i start in february.
What did you use to keep the retwist held in place ?
I need someone to retwist my starter locs in Austin
I’m sure this was already answered somewhere in all these helpful comments, but what’s in the bottle that you put on each time you separate??
Gel like material?
someone correct me if im wrong but it looks like a thick oil.
Aloe vera
You have a very soothing voice. And good advice.
Hello hi can you do a video on someone with a starter loc and then go 3 months or maybe even 2 months so I can get a better estimate of how my hair would come out

So in love with the music. None of that ghetto hip hop crap
You must be a skinhead. Typical.
I’m going to start my own locs tomorrow actually I’ve been watching a lot of videos on how to do it on my own I was just wondering after I twist them how long should I wait to give myself a retwist?
Hey.. how long will it take to dry if I use a heating cap. I use it for my deep conditions. Don’t have a dryer .. I’m doing someone’s hair from home
How long does it take for baby locs to begin to lock? My hair is very coily and was told mine wouldn’t take long but I’m very new to this
I wish you had live in Orlando eye could’ve what are you to start mine and I don’t know where to begin

Can I use jam and water to do the Re twist
I'm trying to go natural as possible since my scalp is extremely sensitive so is it possible to retwist with just oils?
K-Mall it’ll take twice as long but yes it is possible. If your hair is kinky enough you can
Look nice in the end , most definitely helped me out so I can know how to do my boyfriends hair
Beautiful
Can u do a video on styling starter locs
So is it false when people say that retwisting earlier than 4-8 weeks will thin your roots?
How long does dreads take to loc? How long do you sit ur clients under the dryer?
When can you start washing their hair?
Great video. What are you squeezing from the bottle?
just started comb coils yesterday when im 2 weeks in what should i retwist them in since we are in pandemic there is no hair salon open to get them perfesonaly done
What is the price duct you are using on twisting part?
Very nice! What products are you using and what is the name of the clippers so I can order them?
For at home re-twists who don’t have a big dryer. Will hand held work? Just take longer
nydrojna yes it will work but unfortunately you’re right it will take longer. Also, if your hair is longer it’ll be even longer
Well spoken, beautiful video thank you💕

Hi, I like videos, but I have a question how do you keep your clips clean.
Is it good to start my locs with gel or wax or should I just uses water
What product are you using to retwist the hair
What happens if the hair is uneven will the locks hold.
Jus seeing video what oil r u using
Is there a way you could break down exactly how to use the comb and grab the hair. ? I'm twisting my husbands hair and I'm still learning.
About to retwist my own locs for the first time wish me luck !
Good luck
What is the gel u using to loc it
do you have any good tips for my first time it looks easy but I'm nervous
Yana Paris take your time and don’t pressure yourself
I’m trying to do my boyfriends hair. I had a few lady’s teach me. But what are do you have in clear bottle?
Long term, in the beginning stage she saying every 2 weeks or so Is fine
what kind ok oil are you using ? ❤️🙃
