[@mishm.3893]

Excellent advice! During my first 5 years of being Loc'd I was very concerned about them looking neat all the time and equated neatness to re-twisting. Now 8 years in I know that neatness does not mean re-twisting. I re-twist and wash every other month, typically unless something comes up. I also don't style too often. Ladies - add some curls, push up the back with a few hair pins and you are looking cute and put together without the tension. Also, I've made the decision not to let my hair grow past a certain length. My hair type cannot take the weight.

[@thedarksideoftheforce6658]

Most black Americans don't understand that you don't need to twist your dreads over and over again. It makes your locs weak at the root and eventually it can break off. Just wash them and moisturize them. When you are first growing them you can twist to get how you want your dreads to grow. Then leave them alone once they are separated.

[@leondreamcast]

It’s rappers that be making us think this way it took me a minute to realize they have professional stylists and they have an image to maintain. All of this isn’t realistic.

Want to point out to always use a carrier oil if you want to use essential oils. Essential oils like peppermint,sage, lavender etc. are to potent to be put directly on skin directly. Can cause crazy reactions. Always use a carrier oil like jojoba, coconut, argan etc.

Great advice. You’re actually the reason I started spacing out my retwists.

I do need to start tying my hair up at night more faithfully. I always do good for a while and then I fall off. Pray for me! 🤦🏾‍♀️🤣🙏🏾

[@LocGoddess126]

I grew my locs for 7 years, reached my tailbone. However I recently cut my locs up to about mid back. My hairline had so much tension that I started to thin out. I would like to add I have fine curly hairs in the front and back of my head the middle is much thicker the curls are way tighter. OK I wash my hair every 2 weeks but I style my hair once a month. I detangle my hair every 2 weeks to avoid matting together. So I started oiling and greasing my scalp every 2 days. I stopped wearing a bonnet since the band slids back and cause tension and I section off the front 2 rows of locs while doing styles to release the tension. As a result my hair is growing strong again. It's been a while but I'm excited about my retwist. Wish me luck!

[@thescepterofjudah12]

I was just thinking of going from plaits to two strand dreads, and this was the number 1 thing I was concerned with. Still haven’t decided if I will do it, but at least this answers some questions.

[@samlewis6615]

Some people are obsessed wit their locs being styled and looking " neat" if you're that kind of person locs are not for you... the biggest tip is leave your locs alone it's literally that simple once a month or longer between retwist and stop with the fancy styles 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@aware951]

Dreadlock extensions is also a major contributing factor to the issue. It's cool tho how Snoop is confident about his hair line receding, like he not even really fazed by it that's what's up 😁👍🏽

[@aldali724]

Part of his image now

[@samlewis6615]

Exactly! People are getting these extensions left and right and the extension density doesn't match their hair density therefore causing tension.

[@chocothun1]

All actual factuals!! I have one corner that is little more sensitive than my others (has been for as long as I’ve had hair), so I watch it constantly on the day to day. For those of us who get cuts, be ever mindful of that line of demarcation (not to be confused with the hairline), that can act as a barrier to your locs on the perimeter. If that goes, then it can also contribute to that thinning and recession. For the headbands and ties, I love wearing my hair up, but I don’t put it up all the time, and I change how tight or how high I place the ties as to not pull on my edges so much. (All tips learned from this channel…like, comment, share, and subscribe).

[@twink6235]

I rarely style, I hate the pulling and tugging I let my locs be free, retwist every 8 weeks. I wash as needed tho without a retwist. I know this lady every time I see her, her locs are always in a style and you can see the receding probably from all that pulling of the hair.

I used to have some thick ones down to my waist. I didn’t have recession, BUT I definitely had thinning at the top..and neck pain.

[@sagemoonchild333]

Good Stuff. I also think that locs shouldn't start at the edges of your hairline. The edges are the thinnest and shouldn't be pulled into a retwist. An undercut all around your locs makes it look nice and prevents the edge pulling that can cause that 2008 recession. An edge-up can make your locs look fresh again even without a retwist. Just go to a good barber.

[@SHOPXEONOSSDOTCOM]

2008 recession is killing me

[@msbeautifull34]

What about for females? I'd love your advice about this.

[@sagemoonchild333]

@@msbeautifull34 I think the rules still apply to women's hair as well. I don't think every strand of hair should be incorporated into your locs. Leave out your "baby hairs" to avoid the receding hairline. Your edges have a different texture and density compared to the rest of your hair. Have your loctician use that as a guideline to determine how much hair to incorporate into your locs. When you get a fresh retwist, you can use the same loc gel to style the baby hairs. If you opt to use all of your hair in your locs, I would pay close attention to the tension applied to retwist them. Ladies have to be very careful not to cause traction alopecia.

Plus the weather in the UK is very random & I don’t wanna get caught out. Your dreads are looking so LUSH❤️. I made my own oils, as I can’t get House of Isis or Oo Baby over here. Maybe I mixed them too strong, but they burnt my scalp pretty bad. I had forgotten that I have really sensitive scalp. So I have resorted to using the Grape-seed oil. I am a qualified Masseuse, and this is what we use as a carrier oil. I’ve not mixed it with anything though, I just use it neat and so far no problems and it is supposed to grow your hair. I do sometimes feel like a tramp as my micro locks are allover my head, but people keep giving me compliments about them😊but I know that there’s light at the end of the tunnel when I see your locs.

Locs holds a lot of shedding hair, so the weight of the hair becomes a factor. Hydration comes from drinking infused water. Don’t put heavy products in your hair, no waxes or butters. Use light oils. Washing your hair is important. Keep your hands out your hair. Retwisting too often and too tight can be an issue as well. Castor oil for thick roots. Use satin/silk scarfs not cotton. Sun is good for locs. Ocean water is good for locs. Spinach and avocados help the hair as well. Warm water ( tea ) hydrates the body. Diet is important. Smoking can affect you too. It’s a journey, everyone’s set of locs is different. Your hair will tell a story. Snoop Good, just needs to gelacht with the retwist and wear silk/ satin lined caps.

Love this. I'm 11 years in and just started wearing a bonnet. Im getting used to it, but love having a hair pillow when I sleep.

[@isis_reign]

Love this video😂❤️ definitely don’t want a receding hairline! Great tips!

[@44TKO]

Snoop always had a forehead. And he always had his hair pulled back in a ponytail braids and now dreads but he had it like that for almost 40 years and still got his hair at his age is great. My brothers hairlines went early and I still got mine. My hairlines back a little bit since my twenties but you can’t tell unless unless you really look. But my hairline is good right now. I was hoping to make it to 30 and I’m 32 I’m happy even if I gotta shave my shit at 35 lol

[@taylorgiles4844]

if you hate head covering while sleeping like me try satin pillow cases they’ll keep your hair from drying out and breaking

[@TPlocks]

great tip fam! 🔥

[@ElisiasEvolution]

Yes fam, I'm going to try with the essential oils, I've got lavender and olive oil so thanks for the tips hair looking fab!!

[@Wakemonroe]

I've been doing the interlock method and I go twice a year. I love being wild and free. I noticed a bend in my locs because I had been wearing ponytails so much. I've stopped doing that and just wear it down or tie it up loosely.

[@ChieRises]

A band?

[@Stanlayy-em4fk]

I remember growing locs specifically so that I didn't have to be in a beauty or barber shop constantly. All that maintenance might as well go back to getting Caesar fades.

[@jackdawsonanderson8285]

You went through it! Thing number 4. Thanks much!

[@xclassic4068]

Embrace Your journey 🙌🏿 this was helpful

[@TPlocks]

Glad it helped fam! 🙏🏾

[@devontaejordan4644]

This kind of gave me hope like I’m not doing to bad bc most the things he mentioned I do it naturally as a high topper

[@williampeete2473]

Going on 7.5 years with dreads. I still don't know how twist work. 😕 but at 28 I'm pretty confident in not genetically vulnerable to balding or graying yet.

[@anthonybrown3363]

Just hit my one year and a half thanks to your motivation. Went through a lot may have to cut them because I am about to become a firefighter but this was the point of my journey new beginnings. So before people say keep them everyone has a different journey.

[@stevejames808]

That re twist and tightening shit is a killer. Glad I’m natty and let my shit do what it wants. Still have a 4 head, not going to a 5 or 6 head 😂😂😂 You got some good content!

[@michaellivingston8881]

This was my biggest concern before I started locs. Glad to know I was doing what I needed to do to keep this hairline! Thank you for this video!

[@humblehugh23]

I believe receding hairlines come from 2 things. Genetics and men trying to look pretty like throwback Steve Harvey by getting an edge up every week. Give your hair and hairline a chance to grow.

[@otismichael2583]

Hell at least they shit still holding on. I started going bald at 21. Shit is unfair 😂

[@jogbeatproduction4141]

This was a really professional informative video glad I watched 👏👍

[@brandonjohnson5543]

Hair oil is good for me, I use tea tree and black castor oil.

[@SteadilyGrinding]

Have locs.. 30+ inches. Hairline still strong. KEEP YOUR BABY HAIR OUT OF YOUR LOCS... brush it down if you have to.

[@SHAWNA499]

Thanks for the advice

[@kc6442]

I've lived through 2 "Recessions." I be damned, if I live thru a "hairline Recession." Lol 👀

[@kbtitan2464]

😅😅

[@shylonyahweh2485]

Satin Pillowcase is Good too For Sleeping

[@angelofernandez1336]

i noticed my hairline receding. chopped off locs after 5 years. hairline slowly growin back in. i used to retwist a lot and they were heavy locs in a pony tail, pulling back my hairline. it makes sense it pushed it back.

[@Hov..]

Snoops hairline always been like that lol

[@TPlocks]

Hov?! It’s an honor to have you!!!!😅

[@thedarksideoftheforce6658]

Braids pull back your hairline. Snoop would constantly get braids. Receding hairlines also are genetically inherited.

[@jonwhite549]

This is vital to the culture

[@Jay-vh6fd]

I don’t even have dread locks and I’m still watching this
