Spiralocks - Dreadlock Hair Tie Review!

[@boringcanadianamv1042]

I use the same elastics you do for my dreads, throw them in the dryer when they get loose and they will tighten right back up, been doing it with my original 6 for almost a year and they're still nice and tight. Love your videos, glad to see a new video been a while, hope school going well for you

[@rawesome811]

Its awesome to hear you bring in the video with " greetings, salutations, hello!" Again. Thank you for all of the tips and info over the years. Keep up the good work. Im starting my dread journey in 3 weeks.!!!! Can't wait.

[@amandachampion149]

So glad u did this video,I have been considering getting a spiralock for a minute but wasn't sure how they would hold up..definitely gonna have to get me one..Thanks brother..✌💜

[@Dancing13utterfly]

Love Spiralocks! I purchased one for my locs back in 2016 when they were 5 months old or so, and I’ve had it until the beginning of this year. It ended up breaking in half after it’s great use it brought, but since it’s wrapped in whatever material your Spiralock is made out of, the metal stays contained/ bendable and still workable. It looks weird being “broken” in the center of mine, but it’s still wearable. I wanna eventually order a new one, but I’ve been using those throwback 90’s puffy scrunchies currently.

[@jasoncrook1]

Like all your videos bud . Started my dread journey five weeks ago. Thanks to you I knew what I was letting myself into 🤟

[@UnderfedShmuck]

Been watching you for years to make sure i want dreads for sure, and its finally time

[@Kasador]

I've been thinking about dreadlocks for months now and I've only recently found this guy. It's official, I for sure want to have dreadlocks, however; I only have shoulder length hair and bit of growth to do before I can have long dreads. But, I think I will start now and do the natural way and by the time (1 - 2 years from now) I have longer hair to have dreads similar to his, I will have good mature dreads.

[@BerylBerry]

Your Dreadlocks are beautiful love the spiral lock too! Thanks for letting us see it.

[@mandydennis]

Love mine! Had them just over a year or so now. I also have two and no longer use anything else to tie my locks back with. Glad you finally gave them a go and seem as happy as I was when I got mine. :)

[@kristenmarosi8559]

You never disappoint! I was in tears laughing! You're awesome. I have my first Spiralock and I love it! Two more are on their way. Never thought to use them as bracelets. Thx for educating me!

[@candacestarr6797]

Spiralocks are a great company too! Women in a small village in Gunu make a lot of them and buying them help support these women so they can buy things like a stove and other necessities to live :)

[@JediChad37]

I actually made my own. Cost me about $2 to make and it works great.

[@ashleyburdick1460]

How awesome!

[@gabriellavalentine5614]

How did you make it

[@gayletaylor4828]

Teach me pls!

[@LeffHandedProduction]

How??

[@bonelesschickenwings]

Rope, wire, and wrap it with colors! Not sure if this is how the original commenter made his but this is how I'd make one for myself!

[@jenkem69]

I feel like its been way longer than a month sense you’ve uploaded lol glad to see you back!

[@cayleewarner8691]

Yay! I've been looking into these! I wear my dreads up constantly and elastics drive me insane. Thanks for the review!

[@Skymouth]

I've been using a buff to hold my locks back. Works like a charm except for the whole itchy part

[@LazyDreads]

I use one of those when I'm hiking in winter as it can double as a scarf, but they're a bit warm for everyday use.

[@CrystalBrewtonIndieAuthor]

OOOOOO I'm going ot look .. and then try and make my own!! Thanks Chris!!

[@MyDaze]

I love that you made a new video. I've been wanting a spiralock. I laughed about your mom thinking it was a snake! I love your videos!

[@LazyDreads]

She was not amused, but I'm glad my viewers are. Haha

[@indianasalve1575]

I love these. And they double as cool jewelery when they are not in your hair.

[@sumanbbxr2025]

mr.lazy dreads you look stud when you tie your dreadz back !!

[@seliac1934]

I used to use the elastic ones, but they kept breaking on me and that was not good while I was shooting a rifle In a competition. So I cut out some leather to the thickness of my hair and the it together with another peace if leather and that has worked. This looks good to though, thank you I think I'm ganna try it. Love your videos!

[@forestdweller3210]

Great video! I love the 'snake' anecdote too.

[@anorganizedmess8051]

I use these plastic Slinky looking hair ties for medium hold by goody. I really like them I've been using them for about a year since I started my dreads. I recommend them. They're like $5 for a pack of 3 but they last forever

[@dropj3]

Mine will last for about 3 months. 2 broke in the last halve year (the wire breaks). They are great though. Best thing I've found to wrap my locs together

[@fattieworkman4601]

Good to see you again man.I was looking at some of these yesterday,guess I’m going to order them now lol

[@kevinjohnston6300]

Still got mine hitin 6 mths. Still look like a tated up Viking. But it's almost to my roots. Thanks for ur pointers last few months brother.

[@sonjalee1977]

I have a few of them but I don’t use them very often. I like them, but I either wear my dreads up in a bun that holds up by itself or I wear my dreads down. They are good for holding up a cool high pony tail though.. Spiralocks is a very cool company .. they made me a custom one with colors I picked out & they have lots to choose from as well.. any color combo or fabric you can dream up & they will make for you. Plus, they are super friendly too! 😊

[@spiritraps9596]

Love your videos, where have you been? You inspired me to get dreads and so far I'm about a year and a half into my adventure. Hope you're doing okay.

[@Draconamous]

Honestly for me I prefer to fold over a bandana in the style people do to tie around their forehead. It allows me to hold my hair back for hours, and it can still be as tight or as loose as I want it to be. Any style you want as well, and cheap, and washable! Just start from over, wrap around both sides back to underneath and tie. If there is enough material left, wrap it back on top and tie a second time.

[@FeliciaFollum]

I made one of my own and absolutely love it!!!

[@samparker3989]

I wished I lived in Sheffield , so I can play with your dreads all day 😂💛💚

[@dreadtrendkiller1996]

It's been awhile since i could... hold my hair up tied It's been awhile since last you uploaded lol *Staind music in the background*

[@Sklayss]

Loved it 😂

[@samspetservices]

I love how you say Greetings, Salutations. I used to say Greetings, Salutations, Felicitations & All Hail to my friends father a long long time ago so you bring back fond memories with your intro. How about adding Felicitations & All hail to your intro? Maybe not? It is probably not the right time for the latter....But it is so cool how connected we all are xx

[@LeffHandedProduction]

I bought a couple on Etsy and liked them very much.

[@Horrented]

hey lazy dreads so i made my 1st year ! and was wondering how do you get so used to the frizz xD im still bothered by it but other than that my locks look so nice :D , and do you put anything to cover your dreads before sleeping ? im glad you came back to the youtube world !! greetings from NY love your videos !

[@merriepeople4875]

My dread guru!!

[@kimkeller8126]

I have 2 of the bend wire 👍🏻

[@Cav_Man]

Jumping on this! Great recommendation!

[@greg6232gg]

Question! Do you recommend shaving the first two dreadlocks that are on the sides? I think it is more aesthetic and comfortable.

[@H4UN73R]

Thank you for this. they have some snake style ones now and some adornments on there page as well. very cool :D

[@kaelmolo1432]

Can you tie your hair up using this? like a top bun? I have my dreads on a bun almost all the time and was wondering if this is only for tying it down the back

[@LazyDreads]

I'd imagine you can do more with it, but I've never managed to tie an even vaguely half decent bun, so I haven't tested that out.

[@calycalyps0]

I use these hairbands that you like.. wear on your forehead? So they arent meant for putting your hear up just keep your hair out of your face. It doesn't wear out, i wrap it 3 times. Just a tipp from me since you can get those in alot of stores for less money

[@sleepysloth1504]

Do you tie your dreads with other dreads sometimes? I do so but I'm not sure if it won't hurt my dreads in a long term. Is it better to just use bands and head wraps?

[@LazyDreads]

I used to do it more when my dreads were at their longest, and I still do when I'm just being lazy - but I find that the tied up ends will usually stick out at random angles and the roots of the tying dreads will ache after a while. For regular/all day/work I will therefore use something else to tie them up.

[@Ranvar]

_What method did you use to get your dreads_ ?

[@FeliciaFollum]

I've heard "looking smart" on British TV. I understand that it's a positive thing but what does it actually mean? Is it just "nice" or "classy"?

[@LazyDreads]

I guess it means kind of dressed up or more formal.

[@dreadtrendkiller1996]

BTW are you wearing a ''Down'' t shirt? Damn i love that band! Anselmo is God!

[@sakingshiro]

Spiralock used to make wraps did look like snakes, don't know why they don't sell them anymore, kinda mad I didn't get one.

[@LazyDreads]

Too many mothers given near heart attacks, perhaps.

[@ettoliram8116]

On Etsy, right? They might make them again if you ask them, they're very helpful! It depends on if they can get the right fabric for it. I loooooove Spiralocks, I wear them constantly in summer (in autumn/winter I use Dreadbag caps more). Only trouble is that I love all the different colours & materials, so I end up buying more every time I visit their shop...

[@JenEstella]

What length did you happen to get?

[@MANDOFITLIFESTYLE26]

I just cut an old sock and use that as a hair tie lol.

[@timotheematos44]

420music DIY haha

[@MotherNaturesEdge]

My twist and rip dreads are only a few weeks old and they keep trying to lock up together and combine. I'm always ripping up hair to separate them. Do you have any suggestions?

[@LazyDreads]

When they're young they'll always be knotting into each other. You can't stop them from knotting into each other, you just have to keep separating them until they get older - even mature dreads will still need some separating however.

[@TashaEzaki]

Love it and thanks!

[@lilizma8879]

Only problem wit this is that isn’t that good for short dreads like mine and u can’t realy style it in to a bun it’s only for a pony tail but still good

[@vegandemon3259]

Here to support👋🏻

[@realitygamedesign]

I just order one based off your video.

[@hikarik268]

Do you maintain these I see some sectioning

[@Bextra242]

No, he neglects them

[@LazyDreads]

They were sectioned when I started them. They were backcombed originally. But they're not maintained.

[@The_HealingSpace]

GREETINS SALUTATIONS HELLOOOOO!!!!! yeeeeey!!!!!

[@sloth401]

DOWN!! sweet shirt

[@tyrellfraser3579]

Where can we purchase this online?

[@LazyDreads]

Links are in the video description

[@GreenTea_98]

mine are about 3 weeks old so yours definitely aren't messier than mine 😂

[@forkenoath1]

I made my own before I even knew they were a thing.

[@crusafyedtodaflesh]

I want some!

[@mamatree1700]

I had an awesome Spiralock for over a year, paid $35 for it, and then one cold, snowy, winter day our little family went to a walk-through Christmas lights display at a zoo and I was wearing it. But it qas cold, so I wanted to put my hood up, which meant I had to take my dreads down. So I put the Spiralock on my wrist. On the drive home (this place was over an hour away) I realized my Spiralock was gone!!!! *SOBS* I was so mad and upset!!! I tried multiple times to contact the zoo to see if anyone found it and I never heard anything from them. *SOBS AGAIN* So yeah, that is my Spiralock sob story. It really does suck when you lose one. ☹ I need to buy myself a new one, but I want a longer one this time...which means more $$$ So I haven't had the money to dish out for it yet *sigh*

[@Greenfire-1998]

Okay well I think I Rader use those because I can't tie my dreadlocks with a rubber band

[@OceanPlanet77]

Can u do an up-do do u think?? Lol..

[@LazyDreads]

Can't do it. Don't have the skill to do. Looks terrible every time.

[@JokkazArt]

Is that some gray hair i see?

[@LazyDreads]

Ye. I'm old.

[@tinakaster3371]

U are so handsome

[@xxsoul_societyxx1844]

[@AlphaGoII]

I got an advert for a razor. Poor algorythming YT.

[@LazyDreads]

I used to get spam sponsorship emails for razor companies: "would you like to review our 1337 new razor on your channel?" pass.

[@willi3wonky493]

Why dont you just use one of your dreads to tie your hair up

[@LazyDreads]

I used to, when my dreads were longer, and I still do when I'm around the house. It's not something I do for a full day though as the ends of the tying dreads often stick out at weird angles, and the roots of the tying dreads become uncomfortable when they're pulled on for extended lengths of time.
