[@dominikmuminovic2992]

can i do this i have similar hair lenght but i dont really have curly hair its mostly straight?

[@oladimejigafar3720]

Good day Which material did you use pls

[@ChosenCDA]

This resembles finger coils that are easy to loose out back, therefore how do the locs stay in place?

Wow thank you so much! I wondered how people did this. You explained things perfectly!

[@adriennedupree9719]

I love how simple this video made it to understand the process of starting dreads. I can not wait to start I have been wanting dreads for a really long time.😁😁😁😁 So excited 😁😁

[@garden_3130]

You make it look easy but for some reason I have a feeling I'm going to get the comb stuck once I get mine long enough to try this 😂

[@EmpressLocsUk]

You definitely dont want to get the comb stuck, it will be a nightmare to get it out

[@WeedybuggShorts]

I have freeform dreads i did this tutorial I combed some of my dreads out and then thanks to you. I made a starter loc.

[@mickeybat5816]

I was wondering if I could go from freeform and then go to maintained locs. I'm trying to get the miles morales look from spiderman 2, and my hair was naturally looking like that before, but then I sponged it to get more defined segmemts and that was when whatever "locs" (they weren't completely locked up yet) began to twist together causing some locs to twist into another lock and just an overrall inconsistent pattern.

[@katx9125]

i was never familiar with this hairstyle i always thought it was similar to adding braiding hair.. now i’m seeing it’s all natural hair 😩. i would love to try it sometime

[@thotcrimez4252]

WHAT 😭

[@michelleb.1013]

Thank you so much!! I plan to loc my own hair tonight 💜

[@weadiamedia9331]

thanks for this! always wondered how to start. was twisting my son's hair but he wanted locs and I couldn't do it so I know I can do this. I'll do it for me instead since he found someone to do his locs...ugh. lol

[@anneshirely8156]

I think this is a good video so I appreciate the the extra tutoring.

[@templeofjackson2167]

The parts look a bit long ,like you're about to cornrow the hair. Is this the way you always do it, or was it by request?

[@kaleigh1221]

Thank you! I am excited to try this on my fiancees hair

[@alphaqueen6051]

So like are these locs actually locked or is there an extra step in the process if you want to lock your locs?

[@yahsloveone]

Great job. Very well explained

[@mercymerciful2157]

Am starting on mine since I have got an idea thanks

Shouldn’t you twist the left side in the opposite direction so he will be able to twist his own forward on the left side with his left hand?
