The results after brushing out my dreadlocks | 12

[@konstans415]

I came for your dreads, I stayed for your personality. You are awesome Elise, no matter how your hair looks!

[@jas6851]

Konstans Kali I️ think a lot of us did😂😍😍

[@dszat9595]

Same here. Stayed because she is a beautiful person

[@dara627able]

Get your hair cut into a bob. I think that will bring back some life to your hair. You are such a lovely person with or without dreadlocks.

[@dara627able]

Elise you are the girl with the great personality .

[@WhoisKell]

I think that would suit her really well. A nice semi long bob. Not chin lenght think that would be to short...

[@BettyBecall]

I have a long bob now & I love it. If you go to a salon get a keratin treatment. It will make your hair silky and smooth. Get the keratin treatment monthly...it saved my hair :)

[@LorraineVirginie]

I'm surprised by your perception of your dreadlocks and how much you think people care about them. You seem to really identify yourself with them way more than I realized and I think it's probably good for you to take a break from them, and you can always get dreadlocks again if you decide you really miss them. But it will be good for YOU to build an identity for yourself that isn't "just the girl with the dreadlocks". I never thought of you that way, I love other things about your channel and I don't care AT ALL what your hair looks like (though I think it is beautiful with & without dreadlocks and I'm excited to see what you will do with it next!). I think most of your subscribers would feel the same way, they don't watch just for your hair.

[@winnie2222]

LorraineVirginie ... yes! U nailed it. We love u no matter what elize 💚

[@Xaforn]

No surprise there since it was a “unchanging” factor of her that people saw for 4.5 years (I know dreads change as time goes by) it seems to be a normal thing for people to experiment with after a few years and that’s wonderful. Find the reasons again for why you made your choices, relax in some self love and grow as a person, stretch yourself anew. You can always get dreads again

[@EliseBuch]

This was sooo scary for me to do, but I did it and I'll try my very best to enjoy it, and then in a couple of months evaluate and see if I think it was the right decision. For now I enjoy washing my hair more than I've done in 4,5 years, sleeping with my hair is easier. I still find myself pushing my hair up above my head even tho I don't have to. I enjoy all of the small things atm, but we'll see if that will last or I'll end up with regrets... for now it's all bless.

[@fabulousunicornn]

Greetings from America Elise! Biotin 10,000mcg will 110% help your hair grow the longest it's ever been. Biotin, Jamaica Black Castor Oil (it might be too heavy on your hair type to be honest) and drinking water day in and day out will help tremendously! love and light(♥ó㉨ò)ﾉ♡

[@be_still]

Elise Buch You look flawless sweetie! I know it's a massive change but you still have more volume in your hair than I've ever had 😂😂 Sometimes the most scary decisions can turn out to be the best! Love from the UK x

[@sarahtan8957]

Elise Buch Get a hair treatment and extensions. You look beautiful both ways ♡. love your Channel and vibe. Its positive and lovely, brings brightness in my life.

[@turtlelylev7238]

Your hair is so lovely 😍 you look beautiful whatever you do with your hair :3 if you want to try and repair some of the damaged ends you could try L'Oréal kérastase resistance therapist Bain -I think it's called- I bleached my hair and it was so broken but the shampoo and conditioner of that range really helped~ I hope this is a little helpful :3

[@kayleeholmes1356]

Elise Buch get treatments and a small trim. If you don’t trim it it will keep splitting up making it shorter. I love your hair it’s beautiful

[@yhvhismystrength]

When I first brushed out my first set of dreadlocks my hair was very thin and damaged but after a few weeks and months it definitely gets thicker and starts feeling healthier so don't feel that this is it. But you always look beautiful and you're more than your hair. Love your channel!

[@omarkahok5523]

Wow

[@freakingcamera5684]

Dear Elize, I'm don't comment often on your videos but I just wanted to say that you are so much more than just the girl with dreadlocks. You are so beautiful, with or without them, but moreover, you are so inspiring. You taught me to be kind to one other, to never hide who you are and to freely express myself through clothes and hairstyle. I can't ever thank you enough, so I hope I can give you courage to rock whatever you decide to do with your hair. That's all I can give back to you, but I really want you to know that you're an amazing woman ❤ Love you

[@JazzMJFAN]

You look amazing with or without dreadlocks ❤️😍

[@KAB00M11]

Of course we enjoy more than just your dread locks! I love your whole vibe, you're so lovely and your channel always makes me feel happy and comfy.

[@EliseBuch]

awwe this means so much!

[@cm2ca]

Girl... you would be beautiful with any hairstyle! Can't wait to see you try lot's of hairstyles... Ponytails, Space Buns. Half up, Bun, Hot Rolled, Straightened... Lol!!! Keep up with the coconut oil & massage your scalp & get a good trim!

[@EllieJayden]

It looks sooooo good! I love it! I feel the same as you, change is needed sometimes. I’m dying my hair brown, my natural colour. It hasn’t been brown in YEARS. Over a decade. And I’m scared but I know it’ll help the health of my hair and I need to see who I am with my natural look.

[@flagerdevil]

Looks good! And I guess your hair will change a bit over the next week's, because the hair has been in a weird position for so long. Mine has been curly whenever my new dreadlocks have washed out, and my hair is normally straight.

[@MrsChikaaTalula]

it's so strange, in two weeks i am getting dreadlocks and its photos of you that i have shown the girl doing them and now you dont have them 😂 you look beautiful ❤

[@nossrednAailuJ]

Is it bad that i dont see any major difference? :O i mean, you still look like you, just as pretty!

[@Halleluya98]

Embrace, embrace, embrace. This is you, this is your time and season, what a brave step to take for your new year coming! Give yourself the time and freedom to explore without hesitation of failing!!

[@anniebananie8224]

You look BEAUTIFUL! I got dreadlocks because I have thin flat hair, and I love the way your hair looks right now. I think it looks so cool in it's fluffy stage. Rock it while it's that way! Love you!

[@illumiamouse7122]

Of course :) many of us will stay with you. We love you and your videos because of your personality. Don't worry so much! :) you are kind, colourful and special (in a good way). You are the same person no matter wich hair type you have :) stay positiv and happy. Lots of love

[@shereeemily5682]

I did love you dreads but WOW you look AMAZING with your new hair!!! I love it so much! Your dreads don’t define you don’t feel like you’re not the same person without them xxx

[@Sage1990x]

No matter what, I'll always be subscribed. I don't watch for the hair, I watch for the personality and content! I still think you look just as pretty. 😄.

[@katakamillafarkas5744]

ok, not gonna lie, i started to watch your videos because of your dreadlock related ones but girl, that was more than 3 years ago. i have been watching you since then, have seen all of your videos and you are honestly amazing. you have so much realness in everything you do. be proud of your decision, you are great with or withouth dreadlocks, doesnt matter!!

[@manishaj3464]

You look different but still so beautiful. I also enjoy having long hair so I'm doing many things to grow it out. You can try onion juice on the scalp for growth, coconut oil with fresh lime juice for the scalp for dandruff. Regular yoghurt & mayo hair masks really help build the follicle and tames the hair very well...i used it today also and love the results as I have curly hair. Hope these help you Elise.💛🐇🌻

[@inthecraftroom9724]

Bless your heart, Elise - there is SO much more to you than your hairstyle, and THAT'S why your subscribers are here to stay. Sending hugs from the USA!

[@MultiBob13]

I started watching your channel because I found a video you made about dreadlocks, but I noticed right away that you're so much more than a girl with dreadlocks. You're kind and funny, and I really enjoy the videos you put out, not just about your hair, but your daily life and how you're feeling and what you're going through at the moment. So please believe me when I say that You're Not Just The Girl With Dreadlocks! ❤️

[@mcorreasa]

What a great difference, and for so much better!! I began following you after the dreadlocks, and I‘m glad you had the courage to grow up and become the gorgeous woman you are today.

[@diappa]

Elise! You are so much more than your dreadlocks. I wasn't a fan of your dreadlocks but I subscribed because of your personality. You taking this step is big and everyone is proud of you! I think visiting a stylist would be a good idea, they can help tell you what your hair needs (like hydration vs nourishment) and help trim your edges without taking too much off. You look great!

[@WorthyMissJ]

Quite the change and, a beautiful one, I think!your hair will tame down just give it time. Your face looks so much brighter without all the heavy locks around it! You are so pretty!

[@GmaMom]

I started watching your videos when you first bought your garden house….and now I’m watching a bunch of your old vlogs. I love your hair….your 2021 hair! Beautiful gorgeous red hair on your beautiful self! ❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻🤗🤗

[@rebecca.m6068]

You are so much more than the girl with dreadlocks. I discovered your channel when I was researching getting dreadlocks for myself.... But I love watching your videos for many reasons. I think it's awesome you have a bunny for a pet, love seeing your little travels. Its just nice to follow and watch someone from another country and little differences... In from the states, Colorado specifically. You have many viewers that will continue to always follow you:)

[@ashekamisori9791]

I feel that you might have to rock a long bob hair cut... And do alot of deep conditioning and protein hair treatments to heal it and help it grow out.

[@ashekamisori9791]

Also try using castor and olive oils to help it grow and do scalp massages to help blood flow for your haor to grow a little bit faster..

[@LorraineVirginie]

Oh my goodness she would be GORGEOUS with a long bob, like just at the shoulders... I don't think she'd do it but I wish she would!

[@ashekamisori9791]

I feel like it would be really pretty with her wavy curly hair and her hair would be much healthier for the growing out process.

[@callmebee1209]

Totally agree! She has the perfect waves for a super cute bob cut

[@theresanovak4199]

I suggest getting some clip-in extensions to help with this transition until your own pretty, silky hair returns. Have you watched some KZbin videos of other people who have brushed out their dreds? They also noted at first that their hair looked a bit thinner and damaged. But soon afterward, with a good style, their hair looked great!

[@LIZZYRAE]

Theresa Novak she should probably wait a few weeks to do that, even wearing them for a few hours a day can cause breaking at the roots and hers are already fragile from brushing out the dreads

[@berby1231]

I've loved your dreadlocks, but way more than that, I've loved your quirky style, your personality, your accent, the way you decorate your home, your love of plants and nature, your passion for photography, your cute little bunny Luna, your genuine gratitute and sense of wonder for the little things in life and how your sweet and gentle nature brings happiness every time I watch your videos😁 you are so much more than just the girl with dreadlocks, you are amazing and completely unique, love you Elise!💛🌿🌞🌲🌾🐰🌻🍃🌞💚

[@katelyncalvert3636]

I still want to continue watching you, with or without your dreadlocks. You inspired me along with meojuanameghan and rawalignment to actually have locks, and I ended up combing mine out as well, so don't feel bad. It is difficult to part with that piece of you, but it gets better I promise! My hands killed me for a while as well, very sore and cramped, I even dropped a plate of food at work because my hands just kept giving out. It does get better though, physically and emotionally. I believe in you, you're an amazing person and I love your channel as a whole.

[@sgrinnall101]

It looks totally beautiful!!!!! I have really similar hair to you and have had dreads for 7 years and I think you just convinced me to brush mine out! My scalp really needs a break too - very excited about the feeling of brushing!!! I love to have long hair too - apparently the best thing is to stimulate the follicles by brushing :) You're more than just 'the girl with dreadlocks' and so am I and i totally understand the fear of somehow losing some identity :) I can't get across any more how totally helpful this was. Thank you!!! xxx

[@lipstickandmomlife4913]

I have been watching your channel Elise since the early days, when you first started. I've been a fan and loved you since day 1. I myself have had dreadlocks for about 4 years, and watching your whole process has made me incredibly emotional. I can see it in your eyes sweetie! You are beautiful now just as much as before. It hit home because I have been going back and forth myself in if I should remove my dreads or keep them longer!!! I didn't think I would feel much of I took them off, but I cried like a baby watching you, now I just don't know. Good luck beautiful! I love you Elise! 😍

[@DarkenAng3l]

You look absolutely stunning!!! I can’t wait to see your blog tomorrow ❤️ love from Kansas, USA. Literally in the middle of the country. 😂

[@ernanijunior7963]

Your hair is so beautiful, colorful and now very soft, haha. Simply gorgeous, Elise! I'm sure all your friends and family will love it!

[@OliviaSlusher]

Coconut oil and Aloe Vera are so good for hair and hair growth ♡ Love your new hair

[@emilywebster8560]

Olivia Rose I also find aloe Vera particularly soothing in the scalp as well, if it's still feeling a bit sore!

[@pumpkin_fox]

For growing your hair I can suggest onion based masks, eggs & honey masks, mustard (very carefully), aloe vera masks. They all should be combined with some oils, try to search information about it. I love almond, grape seed, apricot & wheat germ oils, they are light and nutritious. They are basic oils, you can add coconut / shea butter / castor oil to them. You can take some vitamins for hair growth for a month, also make a good trim to your hair tips, they will be grateful. Wish you good luck and patience!

[@ninarenton5000]

Lana Fox yes yes yes !!! Taking the words right out my mouth ✌✌

[@pamestla5267]

Lana Fox does this onion thing really works? I red about honey and onion mask..

[@emilywebster8560]

Castor oil has done wonders for the health of my hair (with sweet almond, it's very thick) and rosemary and peppermint essential oils are great as well! (In the oil obvs) but coconut oil is so hydrating so that should be really helping!

[@pumpkin_fox]

Pamela Börlin it depends on person and body but in common it is considered as a very good treatment.

[@pamestla5267]

Lana Fox thank you! I'll try this for a month to see if it works.

[@izzymj9792]

BEAUTIFUL!!! by the way, your hair looks really bright, and really brings out the colour in your eyes.

[@frayed_ruffles]

I'm excited to see all the new hairstyles you get to try with your new hair! A new journey for you, keep your chin up, girly, you are wonderful!

[@rachelmarie633]

You've always been so much more than your hair! I didn't start watching you because of your dreads and I didn't continue because of them. You're evolving all of the time and it's okay to allow your outside to reflect that. You're still Elise but no one can help where time takes us emotionally, physically and spiritually. Nothing but ❤️ from this subscriber! Also pre- natal vitamins help with hair growth and collagen (I've used powdered collagen in my tea or coffee) is amazing.

[@minaermelyn]

Hey there! I think you look good with or without dreads. But I think you should probably get your hair cut a bit, so it doesn't look this fluffed out at the end, as if something is missing. It will probably look more like an actual stylen then 😊

[@feeflowerchildyep3069]

You are awesome! With and without dreadlocks.. ❤️ hope you are really happy with your hair 🤗

[@EliseBuch]

Thank you! I enjoy that it's light, puffy and soft so much atm!

[@feeflowerchildyep3069]

Elise Buch Yeah! You can now go curly hair all the way sometimes 😆 (great english 😂👌🏻 hope you understand it haha)

[@TheHES22]

You are so sweet. I've been watching your dread journey and videos from the beginning and I'm going to continue to watch your videos because I like you for so much more than just your dreadlocks. You're super inspirational and I look forward to watching all the videos.

[@pumpkin_fox]

Love your new hair!

[@gffhhghips3963]

Lana Fox yassss

[@NullusTristis]

The truth is, for me personally, the only benefit in having normal un-dreaded hair, is the cleaning and drying aspect. There's no other benefit that I can see, which is why I got dreadlocks, removed them and then got them again a month later. Good luck with your change though! ✌🏻️✌🏻❤️

[@hunterhanna-yox7828]

You are so much more than “the girl with dreadlocks” to me. I know I’m just a fan and we don’t personally know each other, but I’ve been following you for years, and just from your videos, I know that you are a caring, inspiring, creative, and beautiful person. Your hair looks amazing. And it doesn’t change who you are as a person. I love it:) you are so strong and brave. I love all your videos. Your fashion, your trips- even just you going to the store or your moms house, and when you sit down and pour your heart out to strangers on the internet. I look forward to your videos everyday because even if my life changes or your life changes, at least your videos are something familiar. Lots of love from your fan in the U.S. ❤️

[@AllBookedUp3]

I think it looks awesome!!! I would just trim it a bit to start with the healthiest to grow out but honestly you look awesome and I wish I had your hair color and fullness (its still super full even after all that!!) Remember hair grows back. Its nice to change it just enjoy it, you can always do dreads again if thats what you feel. Ive had hip length hair 3 times and ive cut it to chin length after each time. Hair should be fun! And if the length bothers you you could always get extensions....i wouldnt personally to let your hair heal and grow stronger but its an option. And Im here for your vlogs not your hair. Especially your Christmas vlogs!! Loved them last year and was so excited for them this year! I dunno why exactly but your Christmas vlogs are very festive and comforting and awesome 😀 but love all your vlogs and watch and enjoy them all 😀

[@serielmcleod1900]

I came for the dreads but I stay for the delightful beautiful human that makes lovely vlogs. You're awesome no matter what.

[@LaDeaDeiFrancoziani]

OHHHH I LOVE YOUR NEW HAIR....LET THEM GROW STRONGER! they need that and you have such a nice color

[@victoriajohnson3593]

You are absolutely beautiful with your dreadlocks and without them! Just continue to give yourself some time to get used to not having the dreadlocks anymore and go from there. Don’t be hard on yourself or second-guess your decisions because that won’t make anything better and stay positive and you look gorgeous!!

[@sweetpsychokiller]

uniqueness doesn't come from hairstyles, they come from you, and you are unique

[@heathermurray74]

I'm excited for you!! I'd go big and get rid of them all...but, I know you were tired of brushing them all out! Good job!! And it looks great! The start of a new hair adventure.

[@jessikagutierrez4015]

Ive been with you since you brushed out your very first dreadlock. I alnost cried when i saw this video the first time. I love you with or without dreads!

[@BeautyPOPchannel]

You look beautiful with or without dreadlocks. I do have a tip for growing your hair faster. Do not blow dry your hair and try to keep your hot tools to a minimum . When I married my husband last October I had super long hair and two days after the wedding I cut it off to a bob. Now a year later, my hair is almost as long as it was at the time of my wedding. Hope that helps! I 💚 your videos and I can’t wait to see everyone’s reactions.

[@sammyk4103]

Omg I’ve been watching you since the beginning, you’re a brave soul. I know I felt really lost after I took and brushed mine out

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

You're so, so BEAUTIFUL with or without your dreads hunny. What a big decision to get rid of them. Be well. Much love ❤️

[@Georgee520]

Good for you for showing that you're human and for being vulnerable. That shows courage. You did what was right for you and that's all that matters. You look great! ☺️

[@prismaticparents1686]

You can flat iron your hair to make it less big if you prefer! Just maybe not the best idea right now while you're trying to condition your hair. I think you look beautiful elise! You did inspire my dreadlocks, but of course you are so much more than just them. You are my number one inspiration for fashion!! And love your vibe and energy. I will gladly stay and keep watching your videos ❤❤🌞

[@ChillJohan]

You're so brave making this choice Elise and you look beautiful as always! You go girl!

[@UrieLeviathan]

I will watch your videos, of course! I loved your dreadlocks but you're more than an hairstyle, and I love your personnality so much. Enjoy your new look Elise, you're gorgeous.

[@marianikolova5557]

and also you look amazing with and without dreadlocks, i will always support all the decisions you make about your appearance! Love the new hair

[@anamarijabogataj2529]

You were cute before and still are now! 💙

[@alicelaffan9124]

When you announced that you were cutting out your dreadlocks, I was super sad about it. Now that it’s done? I still see Elise! You are still you with or without dreadlocks! Also, you make the process of brushing out locks look super simple! You look amazing❤️

[@StephKz]

Love it Elise! The length really suits you. I've brushed half of mine out, I had the same reasoning as yourself. Your hair will get better and less frizzy :) enjoy it xx

[@emmacooper4286]

It looks good! Change can be scary but I think you made the right decision. When I brushed my dreads out they hadn't even been in for a year and it took like a week for my hair to return to normal. But it's completely back to normal now so I wouldn't worry about it. You're beautiful, dreads or no dreads and I think you'll love how much less work non dreaded hair is

[@AmyAllstar7]

Hi Elise! You look great with or without your dreadlocks. Your hair does not define who you are :) It’s so inspiring seeing you do something that scared you! You’re a beautiful person inside and out!

[@hildagarcia23]

Elise you shouldnt let your hair define who you are, you are a beautiful soul and your hair looks amazing. I love your natural red hair, have a Merry Christmas 🎄

[@justlisa7405]

i have had dreads before, and it was such a pain to get out! i feel you there haha. i also understand how weird it is to shower and simply get used to looking at yourself and running your fingers through it ect. i absolutely love your hair and it is so brave of you to do this! i didnt have mine in half as long as you did, and i couldnt imagine how strange it must feel. keep going girl, you got this!

[@hayleygardiyanoglu6504]

I had dreadlocks for only 6 weeks and had to brush them out because of lice 😦 it took me 24 hours in total, but my hair is down to my bum ! Im going to cut it to what your length is now because I am donating it! So what I would say for growing it is dont wash it too often, keep doing your treatments and definitely get the dead ends cut off because the nutrients are focussing too much on trying to repair the ends instead of growing and also try to eat as healthy as you can, it makes all the difference. Once its completely healthy it will grow in no time ! I love you and your channel sooo much, you are wayy more than the girl with dreadlocks, you are amazing and one of a kind 💕💕💕💕

[@NOVA11745]

Wow I can't believe you did it! You're absolutely lovely and I understand your decision, I did the same last year and it was soo good to have my natural hair back!

[@maygankay3397]

I love your hair! I think you will be happy once you realize how many different things you can do with it now. Change is good. We all need it sometimes. I personally won't be going anywhere. I love you and your channel. You were not your dreadlocks. You are more than that. There are so many ways to express your style. You are beautiful and you are you no matter what you choose.

[@MikaylaPandas]

You look good! You looked good in dreadlocks too but you’re hair is so puffed and very cute. And once the dried broken ends get cut and treated it’ll look a lot better too. I love it!

[@rebeccahopeginn]

I'm so proud of you for being brave enough to step out of your comfort zone to do this! And I do have a suggestion for growing your hair faster. I use Young Living's Rosemary, Peppermint, Cedarwood, and Lemon Essential Oils daily and they make my hair grow so fast!

[@c0ma83]

You’re a beautiful person with or without dreadlocks! Much love from Canada 🤗

[@Lamejiamexicana]

You are so much more than hair. I hope you realize just how valuable you are Elise

[@marebear44]

You look so pretty don’t let anyone tell you differently. I feel you made the right choice it seems your scalp and hair needed a break.

[@FalcorTheGreat]

You are more than your hair, no matter what your hair looks like you are still yourself and still absolutely beautiful!

[@drinkzcoffee5183]

Just started watching your vids. I think you're so beautiful and kind. I'd love to see you get your hair cut. No color, possibly a conditioning treatment, but just a small cut. The color and natural texture, wave, are so gorgeous! Much love ~♡~

[@Tszar2011]

You are gorgeous Elise, with or without dreds! Your hair looks great, and I've always been in love with your hair colour. xxx.

[@abrilbedoya9274]

I removed 2 year old dreadlocks, and I feel you.. It was scary but also liberating for me and now I am enjoying so much taking care of it!

[@emilieadam3729]

I too brushed all my dreads recently and It was a huge relief especially for my scalp. My hair was poofy and brittle for a while.. so don't worry too much it'll resort itself soon. Try hair masks once a week? I'm no hairdresser but the less you do with the hair the healthier it will get. Good luck on your journey! It's very emotional but only you know what's best for your body so never regret it!

[@celiatiabmusiccc]

You are beautiful Elise, you were with dreadlocks and it doesn't change a hair for me now!! don't worry about your hair, they will get more and more shiny and strong! You can use castor oil (ricin plant), you can find it in special boutiques and sometimes in pharmacies or supermarkets, and coconut oil is also very good for making hair grow faster and strong.

[@dreadfomcnelly4943]

Aloha Elise ypu are absolutely drop dead gorgeous ♡♡♡ i am 51 years old & i got my dread locks 2 & a half yrs ago ...i wanted dreads for as long as i could remember.I did it & i have the same reaction when i pass by a mirror..yep its true .Keep smiling & keep posting ! Your hair looks awesome ! No worries hair is just hair we cut it we grow it ! Have a Merry Christmas from Kailua Hawaii

[@averie_x]

You look lovely Elise! Don't be afraid to cut it shorter and get rid of the dead ends, it will suit you very well and it would feel and look so much healthier! Keep in mind hair is just hair, it's just there, it grows, it's fun to experiment. Also I recommend the Revlon Professional Pro You Repair mask, it is really good!

[@Midnightpigeon666]

I love your hair! I can’t wait to see you creatively shine through in all the hairstyles you choose 🌈

[@designslw5521]

I think you’re amazing! Don’t be so insecure! You’re normal hair rocks on you! Love it!

[@ilikeelineschannel1]

The very first second I saw you with the new hair I loved it. It suits you so well. I would kill for such a mane, I have no volume at all. I love it!

[@angel10691]

Elise! You are a beautiful person. You're hair was very pretty and cool with dreadlocks but your hair is also so very pretty in its natural state. Being the way it is now, the red in your hair stands out more and really complements your complexion. Both hair styles are wonderful in their own right. You look lovely either way and we love watching you for you.

[@AedeusLeonora]

You look beautiful Elise! I understand that it feels strange, but in time you'll come to enjoy all the things you can do with your hair again (like cute messy curls!) and create new cool looks for your photo sessions... :) And like you said - if you miss having dreadlocks you can get them again later if you want. Can't wait to see the reactions from your family and freinds - I bet they liked it and thought you were really brave to make this change!

[@factorykat]

I love how big your hair is! Big hair for a big bright personality I say! :) You look great, but you also looked awesome with your dreads too. I'm staying for the long run for sure cause I just love your spirit and your style, you are a delight to watch. So excited to see what you end up doing with your new hair! Good luck!

[@jokioulou2308]

You can rock any style regarding clothing and I'm sure you can do the same with hairstyles!! You look amazing! I loved the fact that you were 100% into your decision!! Don't worry about anything!! 💛💛

[@mermaidtango]

yes, just PLAY! just play and enjoy and experiment and see what's up! Your hair looks lovely, now, as it did before -- because it's YOU radiating through it. I'm inspired by your willingness to make this change, and be honest about how it feels. Thank you!

[@wandvskopf998]

Your hair still looks super wild and cool and i've had dreadlocks too, of course it's different especially in the first days (i've cut mine off so even more extreme) but you'll start loving it. Normal hair is soft and not as heavy and not as itchy.

[@janisdemontreuil7855]

You just have to style and that's it, you are a beautiful person and your hair doesn't define you, your sweet personality does... love u elise 💛

[@courtneylynn8568]

You still look beautiful! When I cut off my locks and realized I needed them I used a homemade mustard mask to help my hair grow a little faster. It helped. Good luck and don't let the negative people get you down. You do you, boo. Have a happy new year!

Congrats! You look great! I’ve had crazy thick hair my entire life and have struggled to manage it quite a bit. I had dreads for about a year but ended up brushing them out-but I really didn’t want to just go back to normal shampoo. All-natural was still really appealing to me. Long story short, after a long trial-and-error period, I started using Chagrin Valley shampoo bars and apple cider vinegar rinses. For my hair that had been used to (very destructive) commercial shampoos and conditioners, it took about three weeks to adjust to the soap, but it’s completely worth it. My hair is the most beautiful, thick, and luscious that it has ever been. I HIGHLY recommend checking them out. Also, for the dry post-dread hair, they sell hair teas (which work wonders and make your hair smell amazing), conditioning butter, and hair oil. I’ve used lots of their products, and you can really see a difference. Good luck on your hair journey! You look great-keep rocking it!

Some people look beautiful with dreads, then they cut them and look "boring"... you on the other hand look amazing with and without them. Your one of a kind little lady !
