THANK YOU!!!! Omg, I’ve stayed away from yarn dreads because I only knew the braid method and just remember the process taking SO LONG. Oh my goodness. Thank you!!

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Disclaimer: Acrylic may irritate your scalp. Mine burned so I need to use cotton :) just a heads up, if you have sensitive skin you should go for cotton.

[@mygreenerpasture]

Does the cotton cause the hair to loc under the style?

[@MissUnique2584]

[@arikabearika]

I feel like KZbin has been hiding your video from me. I had these done one time and it's like nobody's ever heard of them before. This is exactly exactly what I've been looking for! Thank you for this video! I'm going to share it with all of my sisters and friends. Have you seen them done any larger? Is there a way to get larger ones to look good?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Oh wow, I'm so glad my video helped you and thanks for watching. I've never seen them done bigger but I think if you double the amount of yarn used for one braid it should work just fine. I would actually love to try that one day.

[@akbar8477]

Really cool!

[@dominicatarimo4066]

It is easier for me, thank you

Thank you sister! I was about to start on these braids in dread (pun intended).

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

You're very welcome. I love that pun😂

[@freudhill81]

Do you have any trouble with the locs slipping after the fact using this method? I'm going to try it this weekend.

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Hi. No it doesnt slip or move at all. Very secure method.

[@nellyesendi9160]

Best ..doing mine tomorrow

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Oh great. Lemme know how it turns out.

[@thebigbrain99]

I like this! When you do this does the hair lock up along with the yarn?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Hi, no the hair doesnt lock up. Its just wrapped up with the yarn. I'm glad you liked it🙂

[@josieenemuoh1434]

How did you keep going when you were tired and wanted to give up? Was there a point when you were like “these locs are taking forever I just can’t”?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Lol girl, I do my own hair all the time so I'm used to it. I do have those moments when I get tired and want to give up but then I take a break, go do something else for a while then come back and continue.

[@wallstalk2mukbangs230]

How can we make the locs more flexible after they are in? Will it get flexible after washing also can you do a video on washing and how you dry them.

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Hi, usually they get more flexible with time. Like about 2 weeks they should fall more and be easier to maneuver. Sure, I can make a video on that. I'll have to experiment though because I hardly ever wash mine when I have them because yarn get extremely heave when wet. Thanks for watching💛

[@adrinamiller7764]

Hi omg so I will be trying this for the first time ... Do u have any tips on doing the back of ur head.??

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Hi, so glad you're gona try it😃 Oh girl, the back of the head is always really tricky. Thats the part I have the most trouble with but just make sure you're in a very comfortable sitting position while doing the back because your arms will hurt.

[@krisbellah6606]

@@ruthieslevelupjourney4830 are the yarn locs heavy?and how locs did you put on?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Hi, no they were not heavy but if you make them longer they will be. I'm not sure exactly how many locs I put in.

[@krisbellah6606]

Okay thanks

[@26gabraanna]

I have long hair so how many strands of yarn do you think I need to use?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

It really depends on how thin or thick you want your locs to be though.

[@26gabraanna]

@@ruthieslevelupjourney4830 I want them to be pencil size.

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Then I recommend you use two strands for the base and three strands to wrap. Hope that helps🙂

[@heatheniam1210]

Mine are not staying tight! How do I keep them from unraveling

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Hi dear, you wana make sure you're wrapping it extremely tight and pushing up as you go or else they might unravel.

[@heatheniam1210]

@@ruthieslevelupjourney4830 thanks! I have one that has come loose and my hair is showing through some. Otherwise they are doing okay! I'm planning my next set and prolly going to loc my hair first then wrap

[@KoolKid3246]

ive noticed my locs are more secure when i overlap a bit as i wrap them down

[@franantoine1321]

char g . What do you mean by overlap? Do you wrap the yarn twice at the same point? I’m worried about them slipping out too .

[@lorraineanndaniels8698]

l love your top work video ❤✌✌👍👍👍✌✌❤

[@rosaslade8322]

How do you keep it from slipping at the root?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

I wrap it around the root twice before moving on.

[@Elubial]

How long can I keep them in?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

I kept mine in for a month

Whats with the funeral music...? I like your technique tho.

When i did locs before braiding first then rapping it pulled my edges out lol horrible but true Do u have this problem?

[@ruthieslevelupjourney4830]

Yes, you have to be really careful with the edges when it comes to locs because they tend to be heavy sometimes.
