WOW! I am black but I have fine, thin hair that locs up very slowly, so I always have at least several inches of new growth that is pretty unmanageable. I just ordered a crochet hook and gonna try this. Thank you for this!.
Amazing how your tutorial is 4 years and running, but the absolute BEST instructional there is. Btw- super jealous of what’s on your head lol hope you still have them!
Dies this work for dreads that have already been formed and solid? Like say, 7 year old dreads? Because I've got spots that I need to get loose hair back into my dreads
I have tried over and over trying to use a crochet hook, my problem is the hair I pull through seems to pop back out after about 2 mins. The hair wont stay tight. I don't know what I am doing wrong, I have all sizes of hooks and have tried with all of them. Help!
+wingsonmyback1 Its going to be difficult to comment without seeing what you're doing. My guess is it would be the tightening and sculpting phase. Would you be interested in a training day? If there are enough people interested, i could arrange something
queenmir bear good to know ! I unfortunately I had trouble finding a stainless steel .5mm crochet hook so I ended up ordering a .6mm hopefully it works out I have my dreads crochet every 8 to 12 weeks at the shop but I want to to start doing some maintenance my myself in between
Im getting my hair locked currently sort of waiting for my hair to be a little bit longer but ive seen a hairdresser use this crochet machine thing it looked like the crochet end very small, but has a speed control all it does is move back n forth from slow to very fast - wondering if anyone knows the name of it?? have been trying to find it via Amazon but to no avail it just looked easier all she did was move it along the hair that was being locked anyway I was very impressed wanted to try myself cos it was like $200-450 to lock, rather expensive lol anyway cheers.
My dreads are about 1.5yrs old and I have teenie tiny ones framing my face, they are starting to get extremely thin due to my baby hairs falling out as I wash cuz my hair is very silky smooth.. I don't want to lose any dreads I've already combined 1 or 2 and really don't want to combine anymore, help? Tips, tricks, techniques??
Yes, it is the same process, tho synthetic hair doesnt give the exact result as human hair does as the material behaves slightly different. But yes, you can practise
I have more newly formed dreads, theyre about 6 to 7 months old and i started off with a crop top hairstyle, top long sides shaved, im planning on re shaving the sides and back just like your dreadhawk tutorial, the only problem is that they are maturing very slowly. i regularly use the mango and lime tightening wax and wash them with a residue free shampoo, but they dont look as sculpted or "rope" like like those, theyre more flat, how can i fix this
So would you recommend that i clean all of the left over wax residue out with shampoo and stop using the wax all together or use it as little as possible
hi where are u based plz say Englangif so i live in Birmingham do u do peoples hair urself can u tidy up my dread and how much do you charge i am having problems
