I do a very similar in hair washing routine, I have two sets though and when I take out one set I put them in a T-shirt and wash them in a washing machine on delicate 😂 it’s sounds ridiculous but I find it really takes the work out of hand washing and I get the same fresh result. Thought I’d share cause I haven’t seen it online anywhere
Amazing video!! I have learned SO much! Can you please tell me, am I able to use oils in my synthetic dreads? Like the patchouly, lavender, ones like that? And if so which brand of oils can I use?
@LoneWolfe do you do anything special with the wool after you get out of the shower to keep the form? Hand rolling them ? I’m so scared to wash them and they are so long too 😂 I didn’t think about that when making thwm
Thank you so much! I just got mine and I washed them once but kinda just let them try on their own. Does that mean mildew has already set in? Can they be saved?
Yeah actually! Was juat wondering if you HAVE to blowdry them? I'm gonna get synthetic dreadlocks soon and I read everywhere that its enough to let them dry in the air? Can you tell me about your thoughts on that? Also I love your dreadlocks and your makeup! Thank you for the very infomatitive Video!
I personally air dry and never have problems with smells or molding. I actually have people always telling me how great my hair smells. But I also don't smoke or anything that will cling to the hair.
@@Sharion415 Thank you! I have mine installed now and I actually have to blowdry the roots where my ACTUAL hair is, otherwise that part wont dry 😄 But thank you both for your answers! I really appreciate it!
I'm getting a top knot full of synths I used 82 inch k hair to make them can u give me some tips on maintenance and upkeep strategies lmao and I subbed because I cant find any other good dread youtuber with honestly good synthetics lol
Im not sure how long this video has been on here, but ive literally just watched it, my question is how do u soften dreads? My synthetics came the other day and they r still as hell . Please help. X
So I've had my synthetic dreads on and off the past three years. I definitely think I ruined them the first time I had them in. And they do stink. I have washed them once removed with apple cider vinegar. But if they smell is that just permanent damage ? I'd really hate to have to buy a whole new batch.
Dear Beautiful Gal I put in some Kankalon dreads AND, there great however, they were $50.00 from a Chinese Wig store and I want REAL DREADS BUT, I can't decide length, color, wool, Kankalon, and WIDTH size. NOW, I LOVE YOURS, EVERYTHING!! PLEASE, PLEASE Tell me where u got them and give me ALL of the stats especially COLOR, WIDTH. Thank you so VERY MUCH!! Susan
GorgeousGemini hi I have synthetic dreads now and I get them from Etsy! They can differ from $100 to $200 to more sometimes! Normally mine is around $150!
So I have the curly dreads and they’ve done pretty good but now they are starting to snarl a lot more. If I wash this way and use this product will it condition them a little bit and clean them up a little bit?
And we are Spiritual beings who were created by the Universe, youre right. We all have the same Spiritual roots. Or are you Christian and ignoring your Spiritual calling from your homeland and using "appropriation" of your culture as the argument here?
I don't mean to be that person, but the fact that our culture, hairstyle, and struggle is being taken away (nothing new as history shows) breaks my heart. There are black people with dreads that can't find jobs and are being stereotyped as drug dealers and criminals by police today. Yet we need to watch a "pretty" girl do it for a fashion statement. Really think about the people you are stepping on when you make your choices. I know its obviously difficult for the world to have cultural sensitivity but i just hope some real words and history enlightened you on the people that you steal from and don't even think about. Block if you want, I just hope you learn.
It's hair.. I don't see you complaining about white people using black language or any black origins. Its like saying that people of colour can't go for afternoon tea or something because it's British tradition. At least we aren't being horrible about dreads, we're appreciating that it's a lovely look.
Go back far enough and everyone had hair like this. No one wants to cause offence, but cultural appropriation works across the board. We all love our piercings and tattoos and our vedic meditations, they belong to the human race, we all bleed the same colour, we are all sons daughters and mothers fathers cousins sisters and brothers, we are human above all else. Peace in the valley people🤘
I’m what my government calls native american from these lands now called america. I am federally watched (enrolled). Just think how my people feel and what, in your words, was stolen from us. Just Saying.
Yeah? What about us? I can guarantee your bangs aren’t naturally straight. Y’all can straighten and bleach your hair and don’t want anyone to say shit. Our ancestors actually wore dreads so we have a reason to wear them today. What’s y’alls excuse?
Dolly locks is my FAAAAVVVV. They work so wonderful and smell amazing!
Ahhhhh!!!! The Queen of the Pizza Punks 💜💜💜💜
I’m so excited!! Thank you for this video 🎉
Thanks. I just got mine in the mail getting them installed soon. Your video will help me alot.

what do you wash them with?
I'd like to know too
Please do a tutorial on the look in this video. It’s like my style I love it.
Amazing video!! I have learned SO much! Can you please tell me, am I able to use oils in my synthetic dreads? Like the patchouly, lavender, ones like that? And if so which brand of oils can I use?
I have wool dreads and I can confirm that you are able to wash them, and I wash them every 2 weeks roughly too 💖
They absorb more water than the type she has though, I’ve used both types before
@LoneWolfe do you do anything special with the wool after you get out of the shower to keep the form? Hand rolling them ? I’m so scared to wash them and they are so long too 😂 I didn’t think about that when making thwm
If you work out, do you use a spray? Where did you get your locs? Very pretty

@@MeVictoryasmith666 oh cool! How long do your Dreads take to dry?
I have wool dreads and I let my air dry. Only thing is, you have to let them completely dry before they get wet agin.
@@Sharion415 Thank you! I have mine installed now and I actually have to blowdry the roots where my ACTUAL hair is, otherwise that part wont dry 😄 But thank you both for your answers! I really appreciate it!
Beautiful Silver Hair! Love it!! 💝
I'm getting a top knot full of synths I used 82 inch k hair to make them can u give me some tips on maintenance and upkeep strategies lmao and I subbed because I cant find any other good dread youtuber with honestly good synthetics lol
do you use a shower cap when you need to shower but aren't washing the dreads?
There are large specialized hair caps for dreads just do a google search :)
I am using a shampoo spray too
Is there a way to loosen the dread once it’s already in
What if i have a lot of accessories on my dreads rings and gems should i take them all out everytime i wash it?
I love that sets that you have in your hair, where did you get it? Thank you
Im not sure how long this video has been on here, but ive literally just watched it, my question is how do u soften dreads? My synthetics came the other day and they r still as hell . Please help. X
If they came in stiff you can run hot water under them and they'll loosen and be less stiff :)
TYSM! Mine jus came in and are stiff.
I saw a video saying to let them soak in apple cider vinegar and warm water. It helps to soften and clean before installation.
So I've had my synthetic dreads on and off the past three years. I definitely think I ruined them the first time I had them in. And they do stink. I have washed them once removed with apple cider vinegar. But if they smell is that just permanent damage ? I'd really hate to have to buy a whole new batch.
Where did you get the hair from? Love love love your video
I just now seen this and noticed you did this 4 years ago. Curious to know if you still have dreads?.
Dear Beautiful Gal
I put in some Kankalon dreads
AND, there great however, they were $50.00 from a Chinese Wig store and I want REAL DREADS
BUT, I can't decide length, color, wool, Kankalon, and WIDTH size.
NOW, I LOVE YOURS, EVERYTHING!!
PLEASE, PLEASE Tell me where u got them and give me ALL of the stats especially COLOR, WIDTH.
Thank you so VERY MUCH!!
Susan
Where you buy the extensions? And pricing
GorgeousGemini hi I have synthetic dreads now and I get them from Etsy! They can differ from $100 to $200 to more sometimes! Normally mine is around $150!
Thank you so much!
My dreadlocks extensions are stiff 8 days old will washing loose them up
So I have the curly dreads and they’ve done pretty good but now they are starting to snarl a lot more. If I wash this way and use this product will it condition them a little bit and clean them up a little bit?
Love the color your beautiful ❤
What is that spray towards the end that keep your hair in place?
Tightening spray from DollyLocks.
Where were these dreads purchased?
Excellent. Good advice. Thanks!
If Im not getting a whole head Can I wash my hair more?
Punk Luminals I wouldn’t because it will just be itchier since you can’t use conditioner.
locks&looksbycassi thank you!
What kinda of rubber bands to you use?
What do you do to help with frizz?
How long u kept your synthetic locs
Can you use a conditioner on real hair part?
just Marcin You could if you were really careful but if it’s as short as mine you won’t need to
@@BriBeauty Oh okay thx :)
Very helpful Thankyou
Can someone tell me how to soften them?
What did I miss....
Ugh .. thought you were going to show how!
Dreads speak to ones roots.
And we are Spiritual beings who were created by the Universe, youre right. We all have the same Spiritual roots. Or are you Christian and ignoring your Spiritual calling from your homeland and using "appropriation" of your culture as the argument here?

Just Saying.
Bro I'm Scandinavian I am also a Norse pagan there is many more reasons people wear them instead of just a fashion statement
Caucasians with locs 🤔
And....
Gemini Johnson peace and love girl. Not your place to judge✌️👍

Gemini - open a book, lady. 🙄
Like people with afro hair don't MOSTLY wear synthetic braids and whatnot 😅
