Combing out my Locs after 5 years😱😱|THIS TOOK ALMOST 2 WEEKS🥵🥵 |Entire process
Hi friends,
I decided to pull out dreadlocks after having them for over 5 years. When i first got them in i knew i could pull them out so it was only a matter of when i was ready to go back to my loose natural hair. Many people had the idea that locs could not be pulled out and thought the only way to go back to their natural hair was to completely cut them off. ☺️I’m here as proof that it's not.
Watch the entire process and the final look🥰😘. Hope you enjoy it, see you in the next one.

@PureeTauruss 3 года назад

I never understood why ppl think you can’t comb them out. It’s just tangled matted hair. Ppl just prefer to cut them because combing them out is WHOOOLLLLLEEEEE JOB 😩 this is my third time having locs and the first time I combed them out 🥺 the second time I cut them 😂😂

@kapparhotau181 3 года назад

I think it depends on your hair. If I tried that on my thin fine hair it would be all gone. Looking like Coolio with a twist style. 🤣🤦🏾‍♀️

@missliv814 3 года назад

For anyone wondering, I just want to point out that the loc process is based on shrinkage of the hair that mats when left completely alone. With that being said, had you not cut your locs before you started combing it out, your loose hair would have probably been touching your bottom!! Our hair is actually longer than the loc itself. Locs are beautiful and very fascinating. Kudos to you though! Your patience!! Cuz sheesh! Very nice video and beautiful hair! Cheers to new beginnings!

@AbbyLaura 3 года назад

Hi thanks for the information 👏🏾 Personally my hair ends were damaged from bleaching so i knew it was definitely dead hair , so cutting it made the process easier to pull out.Alriggghhhtttt this definitely showed my how much patience i have cause i was ready to just go snip snip from the root ✂️ 😂😂😂. Thank you 🥰🥰 new beginnings indeed. Be safe

In my 10th year with locs, I can't see myself cutting them off. Some much easier to style and lots of styles can do after the 1st year.

@SaxandRelax 2 года назад

Often times the hair is not even as long as the lock itself. Since hair that isn’t growing anymore hair can not escape, it just stays. Therefore locks can grow endlessly long, longer than hair can possibly grow

@@Mish2Legit honestly I think you’ll be fine! Just take how healthy your hair was to begin with in consideration. Be SUPER gentle and use lots of conditioner if you feel even the slightest tug work your way through it being too rough will break your hair off.

@BubsEyesBeauty 2 года назад

Hey I added loc extensions to mine after a year of having them and a year after that I kinda regretted not starting without them and just going through the process; I can’t explain it but I just felt the energy of someone else after a while! I ended up cutting them out now I’m currently combing out my locs entirely lol honestly i miss wigs lol and I miss feeling a comb going through my scalp lol but either way black beauty is universal you’ll be gorgeous no matter which route you take!! The loc journey is the most fun ive ever had with my hair especially being someone who battles alopecia 💙

I have thick locs I believe thicker locs may be easier because the size and if you have starter locs it’s even easier

Method doesn’t matter, whether retwist or interlock, both can be pulled out. Thicker locs tend to be easier to pull out than thinner ones.Sister locs i don’t believe can be pulled out. I could be wrong but i haven’t seen it done yet. Your welcome.

I've never dyed my hair so I guess I wouldn't have to worry about damage but I have no desire to cut them at all.
