I like that you jump right in to the maintenance. Thanks. Excellent vid. I personally find it better for my dreads to make sure I'm not tearing my hair when I use a hook.

@midnightprophet7935 3 года назад

I've watched so many vids on white locs and maintenance and of all the "pros" this aussie goddess nailed it better than any of them. I've started locs (non nappy hair) for a 3rd time and things have changed in the game since my 1st time. This video is spot on. Thanks sister!

I’m getting ready to have half my hair dreaded, for health issues also! I want to share, if you get hair bands for horses manes, they don’t break or tear hair! My hair length is like yours, I have those days where I can’t keep up with my hair! So, I think I’d really love this, and easier. Hair is our security during times!! I’m 3 years shy from being 60, I’m going to do what I love!! Dreads, a free spirit, and make life count to the max!

Hi I am 54 and will be getting my first locks this month!! I've wanted them for many years but never had any support from family and friends. FINALLY IDC what anyone thinks!!

This comment give me the power to also just try it.🤩 For years and years i want to try dreads. I had braids several times. Now Almost 59. Im gonna try with exctentions. Im want to try wool cause they are less havy.

@@staceyclark9556 same here. Family and friends liked my braids. But don't support dreads 😃. Im going to do it anyway. I get my info from "Dreadschop". I want the ones without chemicals or maybe from wool. Hmm don't know that yet. Good Luck with ur dreads . Just do it!

You can get smaller crochet hooks for dreads than 0.75mm. I personally use 0.5mm as I have thinner dreads and works quite well for me. Keep up with the great content 👍

Holy crap! The addition of those little rubber bands is going to be a total game changer to my maintenance routine. I'm a little over one month into my dread journey and I cannot wait to give this a try tomorrow (it's maintenance day, so how timely was this?!). Thank you SO very much for the knowledge-share!

@dreadalinaa 3 года назад

Hey thanks for your comment! & Yes 100% the rubber bands make the difference. Congratulations on getting your dreads!

@Zev4U 4 года назад

Thank you for your many videos! I’ve been wanting to ask you a question for a while now. Is there a specific reason(s) that your hair’s divided in both triangles & rounded sections as well? I am trying to figure out which will be the way I want to section my hair. Is there a helpful reason she had that I should know? I have watched videos on sectioning & the Fan shape seems to be the best vote for not showing scalp as much. I’ve fine hair & I intend on upkeeping the bleaching on it so not sure if that helps on your input.

@dreadalinaa 4 года назад

Hey thanks so much for your comment :) the only reason I know is so that the scalp isnt showing as much like you said laying in between each other but you can ask Renate from @dreadshop on Instagram, she did mine :)

Could you make a video of some hair styles please? I’ve done my own hair into dreads 3 times with synthetic extensions but they get scruffy so I’ve finally decided to get some human hair dreads made then that’s that for the rest of my natural!!! Using the elastic bands is a genius 💚 tip for for maintenance as you say you had mirrors to see the back & it gets tiresome but worth it. Love your dreads & your a very beautiful lady btw. 💚 Xxx

Are you going to answer any of the questions?? How long do you keep the elastic bands in?

I kept them in for about a week or 2, just whenever you feel but there super painful in the beginning but it keeps them way neater the longer you leave them. Some break by themselves 🤘🤘

@dreadalinaa Год назад

I usually get the clip ins in 24inch so you don't have to keep adding hair over and over again unlike if you were to get 20inch, and I think from memory I got the 5 piece clip in set last time but I wished I had have gotten the 9 piece because I was doing a full head of really long extensions. I also got the ice queen platinum colour if that helps too xxx
