Life After Dreadlocks // Ending My Dread Journey

[@StephiLee]

you beautiful soul! i’ve had a strong urge to brush out my dreads recently and this video is really inspiring. thank you 🙏🏼

[@ixchel6589]

I love your dreads Stephi!!! Tho transformation can be a great thing ;) 💓

[@iitskeykey1803]

stephi is my fave

[@WiredAndStoned]

Hi dear! Bless any decision you make on your journey! Keep us updated! PS You have a care package awaiting your arrival when you return home! 💚

[@Quiteczko]

Oh, really? I love you dreads! What urge force you?

[@unfoundfutures7646]

Ahhhh, you guys need to be friends now. XD

[@cosmic_gemini7]

i shaved my head after a break up and had really bad depression and it was so liberating and i've never felt so beautiful with my natural beauty and i fell in love with myself and i felt exactly how you did letting go of all the negative energy! i love you so much

[@DoriHiebert]

I've been researching dreads for the past several weeks trying to decide if I should try them; I am so grateful for your honesty. I think you're amazing - peace and gratitude _()_

[@madamehogan8553]

I so relate to this... almost 2 years ago, I nearly shaved my head to a verrrrry short pixie. Having dyed it many colors since I was 13, I had honestly forgotten what my "real" hair looked and felt like. Having almost no hair, and now seeing my natural hair come in more and more has been a meditation of sorts, very powerful. I also find myself loving my natural hair!

[@BeautifulAwakening]

Your honesty and authenticity is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your journey and for being you 😘

[@WiredAndStoned]

Thank you so much for seeing me and receiving me! 🙌

[@BeautifulAwakening]

Wired And Stoned my brushing out day has come! Had dreads for 2.5 years. I’ve already brushed out 17, and have 52 to go.. I had 69... I can’t wait to use a head massager 😍 thanks for being inspiration on my journey 💜 xo

[@caitlincontreras997]

You are beautiful! I am starting my dread journey in a couple of weeks and couldn't be more stoked. Thank you for being such a positive and amazing presence.

[@emilyisaac5284]

[@winnie2222]

I shaved my head to start over after 2+ yrs of dreads.. idk if I'd recommend that. I went thru a serious depression a few weeks after. Like just bald lol n felt so ugly! But for me it was a experience that I needed. It's been 4 months since dreads for me, & I'm now going to put them back in with extensions. I'll have to use string to get them to stay.. but I've missed them soooo much!!! Really give it much thought before shaving dreads off... It's actually a huge decision! Sending love from Austin Texas 😘

[@chelseyummali]

New follower here. I can relate sooo much to your hair regrowth journey but in a different way. I’m a Muslim convert and I Veil my hair and face. I used to model and see my “beauty” as something so important not just for myself but society. When I started veiling I had such an inner exploration that happened. I was able to really self reflect and I found myself almost embarrassed at times for how much I focused on the material side of myself. I actually feel extremely free veiling myself.

[@honey77777]

you really hit this on the nail! I recently cut my dreadlocs at the beginning of this year after 4 years of being loc'd and it was such a drastic change from turning heads when I walk in a room to feeling like I was just "regular" again and it really takes a lot to overcome and appreciate whatever hair joinery your own. it was such a beautiful time in my life and I'm excited for this new chapter. thank you for sharing

[@pudgeallday1265]

whoa. youre my dread hero. i spent over 100 hoirs combing my dreads out and was so miserable without them and did them again with my sons hair combined in ways i learned from you. it was a blessing bc he died several months after. i love u no matter what and youre always beautiful. im just floored though. lol

[@taylaashford5030]

Ahhh, bless you. I'm so sorry for your loss.

[@lenaayres4118]

Bless you and your son ALWAYS, Leeanne 💜

[@winnie2222]

Wow!!! Sending u so much love

[@andreagolden4001]

Thank you for saying the piece about letting go of beauty and feeling an obligation to be pretty! I’ve learned a ton from your videos but that is without a doubt the most widely needed piece! Beauty comes from the inside out, and it helps to hear it from someone like you too

[@oneofanewkind5316]

Thank you for sharing the various stages of your dread journey! I am in the process of brushing out my 4yr old dreadlocks. (obtaining video and pictures of the process to maybe share on KZbin..???scary) I decided to brush my locks out because I no longer felt connected to them, I was feeling more selfconcious about my appearance than ever before. I appreciate what dreads have done for my hair. Before dreads my hair was so damaged, bleached, thin and lifeless....now as I'm picking them out my hair is long! soft healthy and my natural color actually fits me! 4 years of no chemicals and using good oils and not processing have done wonders. It takes me 1.5-2 hrs to pick each dread out. I am encompassing this process as part of my dread journey. Felt the urge to share a little about what I'm in the middle of right now. 13 dreads picked out, 33 to go! I'm using lots of conditioner, detangling spray and a large weaving needle to pick them out after soaking in hot water. Hope you have a magickal day!

[@WiredAndStoned]

Thank you you sharing with us about your journey! 🙏

[@mayawaycaster8993]

OneOfANewKind was yy aw

[@madamehogan8553]

I did not have dreadlocks, but I was at at point of feeling "defined" by my signature hair, which was a specific wavy cut and bright copper henna'ed for many years. It was such a departure from my real hair, it took a ton of maintenance and time, money, effort.. and I really attached my identity to it. One day my husband asked,'Do you ever wonder what it would look like if you just let it be?' and I did. I cut it VERY short, down to the root to get all the fake color and damage out, and for about 3 years kept it completely cropped, to re evaluate myself really, without distraction. It was much deeper than I thought it would be and made me consider my whole idea of beauty. I am only now letting it grow back, its own color and texture, and loving it, having learned to love myself the way I am. It is fun to play, and hair should be played with, but when you reach the end of that, there is much to learn and connect with. Thank you for posting this!

[@dscar7103]

Thank you for bringing up the issue of “owing beauty” something I have been thinking about a lot lately and working on personally. I think many women struggle with this. Glad your uploading videos again! Love your channel

[@NomadLand666]

Thanks for talking about it. : ) I am about to start my dread journey and it feels good to hear about it from someone who went through it. I did cut my hair very very short recently and going through that really does separate you from the visual aspects of yourself and it's really interesting

[@hannahgs612]

i watched a lot of your videos a year ago when i first got partial dreads they were really inspiring! and now my dreads are going through the awkward shrinky phase and they're quite short and weird looking which i use to hate but now i'm starting to love them because of their awkwardness. i love that you're still making amazing content even though your dreads are gone you're very inspiring!

[@WiredAndStoned]

I intend to make much more content about a wide variety of topics that I am passionate about!

[@amberdean374]

You’re right about feeling it inside when the journey is over for you dreads. I had dreads years ago for a year and I got rid of them. Now I have dreads again and I’ve had these for over two years now. I’m thinking of shaving them when it’s warmer outside but I’m not 100% certain my journey is over!

[@peachesexpr3ss383]

It makes me so sad when people cut their dreadlocks

[@Separationisillusion]

Peaches Expr3ss bro she had lice I don’t think she really wanted to 🤪

[@linamimton7172]

Peaches Expr3ss same but it gives them an opportunity to restart fresh clean hair dreads

[@saoirsesigurardottir5105]

I'm in the SLC area and I have been wanting you to do my dreads for awhile now. I am in awe of you, you have such wisdom and I love your thought processes and wavelength you are riding at. 🧡

[@WiredAndStoned]

Email us and lets get together! [e-mail]

[@AnimalUnderneath]

I never could figure out how to crochet at all. My new dreads aren’t looking very good, especially the back of my head, and there is no one near by that knows how to do them. Your videos inspired me to finally start them after years of wanting to but now I feel hopeless. I love your spirit by the way. Your energy is beautiful.

[@WiredAndStoned]

Thanks for the comment and the love! Keep practicing with the micro latch hook, you can probably get the hang of it! Otherwise, palm-rolling the correct way works very well!

[@thexcharmer]

I just shaved my dreads that went to my hips. When I watched you shaving your dreads, I cried my eyes out. Love you girl.💖💖💖

[@celticjen14]

Love this! Thank you!🖤

[@abigailv3841]

I've lost my love for my dreads after 4 or 5 months. I'm gonna get them cut then brushed into a pretty short style. I'm excited to do that and I'm so excited to touch the parts of my head that I really haven't been able to. So this video got me pumped

[@bbkittty4715]

Hey hun! Long time fan, ordered your products and was inspired to make my own by you. All your videos are awesome. Thank you for being so open and truly original. I’ll be combing out my dreads in a couple days 🙈and I feel it’s time, as silly as it sounds I really feel like I’m letting go of a big part of me. I thought I was just being sentimental 😂 I’ve had my dreads for 3 yrs maintained them and grown them all on my own so a lot of work has gone into them. Excited and nervous about brushing them out but I’m so glad you made this video cuz it’s eased my mind knowing my thoughts and feelings were shared. Anyhow! Thanks bunches

[@jessiereyer4793]

I love watching your videos! It's really wonderul that both of you can come on here and share yourselves with the world 💕 I feel like I'm opposite of you in that at 30 years old I feel extremely liberated and empowered by starting my dread journey.... for the second time! I had them for a few months and brushed them out because 1. Job hunt and 2. LICE! I was devastated and I'm so happy to have them back again!

[@christinhuntsman4992]

I watched your videos when I was trying to figure out how to do my own locks 3-4 years ago, and its been quite the journey. I loved this video (even though I'm way late the to the game), thanks for sharing!!

[@miabrecknock6759]

I’m currently making my own dread extensions for the first time because of you videos so thankyou xx

[@ladygoats102]

I absolutely love this video and how open you are about this whole beauty thing. Self love and acceptance is something is alot to recover from inside. I also have been on a similar journey. So more power to you lady, an thank you for sharing.

[@martasanchez4296]

My life after dreads was literally shave my head and short hair mohawks. 5 years later Im ready for instaling a full head dreaded to my natural hair dreads and I can't be more excited rn I really miss em again!

[@mariannejasmijn8656]

I really love that idea of letting your physical appearance go in order to let yourself identify with your internal self. ❤️

[@WiredAndStoned]

It can be helpful in this day and age!!

[@barbaradouglas2283]

Re:comment: really? Do you even wash your body or are you just dirty? Why? It’s very unhealthy to not keep your body & hair clean & healthy. Would you like to have toxins build up inside your body & get ill from that? 🤷‍♀️

[@linamimton7172]

I always wanted dreads but I am very impulsive so I shaved my head an after I realized I want dreads so now I have to wait. My hair was so damaged and now I have to reduce it after it is grown out. I love your energy and inspired to be more positive in my life❤️

[@isabelwhitlock4881]

Such a beautiful video! I love hearing about your journey and would love to see more videos on how you meditate, how you connect with yourself and what tools you use, and how to cleanse your space. Can't wait for more videos!

[@WiredAndStoned]

Appreciate the recommendations! I'll take note :)

[@thecrystalyogini]

This is so interesting. I am just thinking about getting dread extensions to start with. You have given me lots to think about. x

[@mwalters5681]

Thank you thank you thank you so much you have taught me so much about dreads .what to do what not to do. You are awesome! God sees your journey and loves you.

[@mwalters5681]

And I don't shave my armpits either! Couple of pure righteous chicks huh? Harvest love honey!

[@kerris629]

I've always identified myself with my hair. I've always felt like I hide behind my hair & it's been a big part of how I interact with people. A year ago, I finally dreadlocked my hair. It's been a wild, emotional year, but it's over. I absolutely love my dreadlocks, but it's just too much now. I'm currently in the process of combing them out --I'm down to five left! It's been about a week & every dread that I comb out makes me feel so much lighter & so much like myself; I felt like I got lost & so far away from who I am & who I want to be this last year. I cannot wait to wash my hair without any dreadlocks!

[@WiredAndStoned]

I'm happy you have been able to utilize dreadlocks to help your personal growth! And that you are continuing to progress. Blessings!

[@Heavens-Humanaterian-Army]

I lovded my dreads and now I love my shavded head...only got a big patch on top to drape over the side and front...so easy to care for love it.

[@eliwalsh621]

I love listening to you! You're such a beautiful soul and I really like your hair ♥️

[@swarlezzbarkley3]

Love this! Thank you for sharing sister.. I just brushed out dreads last week. Took 12 hours for 4 days. So worth it tho. My hair is for some reason healthier than it was before I dreaded it. And it's pretty long. Enjoying it so far :)

[@WiredAndStoned]

Wow, congrats on that! Must feel amazing!!

[@godschild1027]

I only have three dreads on the top of my head and just added two more but to the back sides of my head ...I don't wash my hair often I use coconut oil on my hair. I love love love dreads ...I'm slowly locking my hair up ..thanks for the video

[@Maryklokkis]

You, as a person, really inspire me🙏🏻 Thank you for these beautiful videos❤️

[@DeanH92]

Funny you should upload this. I’ve had mine 7 months and I’m planning on combing them out next week. The cons are seriously outweighing the pros for me.

[@musicsoothesu873]

Thank you! You're so beautiful with or without them. Great energy. Xo

[@gem3506]

Girl your absolutely gorgeous 🥂❤👍 Also very well described because j knew people with them but I never had them so you explain even when you took them out

[@flomzame8577]

I have lately been thinking of shaving my 4 and a half year old dreads. I've been emotionally unstable since the pandemic started, so am not sure if I'll regret shaving them later since I've been so proud of myself for managing to grow my locs to shoulder length and they look so BEAUTIFUL! On the other hand, I'd like to see if shaving would ease some of the negative energy I feel surrounding me and start a new journey of re-growing my hair. I'll just document my dreadlocks journey before I cut my hair (when am ready and sure) and I'll have something beautiful and positive to look back too in future.

[@mikesumner9232]

I've thought of cutting my dreads, I've had them over 2 year's now, but unfortunately it's a problem to get a better Job with having Dreads and mine are clean, maintenanced well. That's my hold back like I shouldn't have to cut my DREADS for someone else if that makes sense,or saying you're a Rastafarian... Good video and wish you good vibes on your journey!

[@ksea6565]

sister you are so phenomenal and AMAZING 🤩🥰🤩 I AM so glad I found you 🦄🥰 you are a true UNICORN my dear! I about to begin my dread journey... I am 55 years old and I have done everything else that you can possibly do to your hair lol but dreads and they're on my bucket list. so tonight I will sit with the hair I bought {thank goddess for yr videos showing me how to do it...} and work it into dreads to put into my hair bcz it's really short. I never feel the need to comment on videos but the things you said and so MANY FEELINGS you've had I relate to completely... I've had my head shaved in the past and to was so freeing and impowerimg... and what you said about makeup. wow 😳 lol 😁❤️ I've never heard anyone else talk about it but me like that. I just wanted to thank you and tell you it would be so cool to get to know you better bcz you are fuxking EPIC NABY. 🦄🥰

[@loridunn5873]

Awesome thanks! See ya soon on the next vlog about the kit.

[@rainostrander2959]

I just would like to comment about the not trimming your hair to make it grow comment. I am a hairstylist and yes if you have absolutely no split ends your hair will grow extremely fast if you don’t cut it. However if you have 6 inches of nothing but split ends your hair will NOT GROW. Because it will just continue to split. And if you have to iron straight hair to make it smooth is a sign of having a lot of split ends. I do love your videos. And thanks for all your info. You have been a good help to me for my dreadlocks.

[@hizzacked2132]

I brushed mine out a couple months ago and it took at least 100 hours over the course of 2 weeks. My hair wasn't damaged at all, and in fact was way softer than it ever has been before dreads. I was also pleasantly surprised to learn that I have curly hair haha. I guess all that time without treating my hair with products or bleaching/dying revealed it's true form. I've been thinking lately about having dreads again, and in fact regret brushing them out at all. I've decided to blame it on a long lasting 100 hour moment of insanity.

[@blackblack420]

I'm with you on trying to find yourself and not doing things for other people and what they want and impressing other people. Doing things that make you happy 😊 your so beautiful no matter what hair style you have. You just have do much goodness in you and your inspiring and I can't wait for my dread journey 😁😁. But if more people in the world were more happy and not just for them self's the world would be so much better. Just keep doing what your doing. Your amazing in every way possible and God bless you and your family. 1 Love ♥️

[@_Ph0enixx_]

It makes me happy to listen to you, everything always resonates on such a personal deep level and you are just so amazing and wonderful and peaceful and I feel peaceful watching and listening to you. Love and light beautiful 💚💜💚💜🐛🐞🎍🍁🐕🐈🐾🐾🐾

[@juniperpocaid6805]

I shaved my head, only because I was ready for the change. My Dad and my Aunt had died that year, and it seemed appropriate. It was quite a journey, and eventually I restarted my dreads. Im 2 years into my 2nd set.

[@sunmoon8465]

Not many people look that good with a shaved hair like you. Amazing! 🥰

[@noellec7211]

Yeah the freshly shaved head feeling is amazing!

[@angelicarcturianmessagesan2830]

[@suziefleur]

I brushed out my dreads a while ago and have a video about it on my channel 🧚‍♀️❤ but shaving is a big step

[@BrooklynHudson]

I shaved my head completely bald on my 30th birthday -- don't ask -- but it was very, VERY humbling. I regretted it immediately, but there was no going back.

[@WiredAndStoned]

Definitely something to grow through! 💫

[@ashleighbaker864]

Gosh what a inspiration you are!! I'm 17 yrs old and I have a full head of dreads and I really understand now what you mean by having that energy with them! It's definitely not easy letting go of them I don't know if I'll ever be able to part with mine. One question u have for you is do you think you'll get dreads again in the future? And you're so gorgeous with and without them! Keep up the good vibes 💖✌

[@WiredAndStoned]

Hi Ash! Thanks so much for sending your love and relating to me. Yes, I can see myself having them again one day! :)

[@a.team_adventures]

ive had my dreads for about 8 months and sometimes i wanna shave my head but sometimes i love them

[@WiredAndStoned]

Try getting to 1 year, you may fall in love with them again!

[@Kaynaydiaandkumo]

I have a disorder called trichotillomania so I have been thought a lot of head shavings and I've been trying to grow my hair out for 5 years and I've gotten so caught up thinking that if my hair is longer I will be happy and people will think I'm pretty and at some point my hair was at your length but the sides were shaved and I look back at pictures wondering why I still wasn't happy with it I'm in such a bad place now and I wish I could be as down to life as you wish me luck in this coming year to not need a hair cut

[@WiredAndStoned]

Sorry to hear about your struggles! Just know that all this is helping you grow and expand. Tune into yourself and make decisions for you.... Sometimes a complete restart is helpful. 💚

[@Cottonheadedninnimuggins]

i guess you could say im on a hair journey.. maaaybe? ive never liked my natural color and have been dying it for years. all of a sudden im finding beauty in my natural color when i see it on other people so now im growing it out and ill live with my natural hair. plus i wanna see my grey hair come in. i also stopped wearing makeup about a year ago, because im over it and wanted to learn to accept my face as is.

[@WiredAndStoned]

Great job! Proud of you accepting and loving yourself in this way.

[@shadowcat5889]

I've been thinking about dreads but I'm trying to talk myself out of it by watching others stories then I found this channel and each video makes me want them more, there's a couple people in my town that have dreads and I'm going to talk to them about it. Until I completely decide on whether or not to get them I like to do hair wraps, or fairytale dreads as we call them at church camp, in my hair and other's hair

[@mariaaleistara]

No way! I haven't seen you in this long?? Oh my jeez! It's so weird I took out my dreads too, I was so happy putting in my dreads (which you taught me to do). Started my fitness business so as soon as I can I want to buy wire wrapping kit from you!!! Love ya girl! No worries you're so fun and pretty and natural! Byeeee!!

[@mermaidflows4391]

I recently had to comb out 53 dreads that I'd had for four years. Took forever but I didn't want to go back to short hair again. I got lice as well but my infestation ended up not being that bad. I caught them pretty early. I used coconut oil with tea tree and lavender oils to kill the lice and it worked pretty well. I've always heard that you should use oil or conditioner when you comb out dreads but I found that with my hair combing was waaaayyy easier when it was clean and dry as opposed to saturated in oil which made it stick together more.

[@Separationisillusion]

You’re adorable lol about to start my second set mine have been out for a year and a half and I miss them too much time to start another dread adventure with new energy 👍❤️💗💗✌️✌️🙋🏼‍♀️

[@MissMelissy]

Holy crap!! I didn’t even know locs can get lice!! Why did I think o couldn’t get it?? 😂😂 I’m floored!

[@another_internet_human]

I want to see a day self care/ self love video ♡ you are worth all the self care. It can be so conflicting in a world that shoves beauty standards down us. You will find balance within.

[@WiredAndStoned]

Thank you Larissa for your kind words! I will consider what this video would entail. Stay tuned :P

[@AmericaIsDoomed420]

It took me 2 weeks to get all my hair twist and ripped but I finally got it. Sadly I didn't know about you until after I already bought Knottyboy bar shampoo! I hope you will post again soon! 💗✌

[@agirlfrom1991]

Before I started my dread journey my hair was almost to my butt but it was in really bad condition because I never really cared about it. I only took the time to shampoo it and detangle it once every 3 weeks or so. Now with my dreads is a totally different story! I take the time to wash it and part it every 3 to 4 days, I blow dry it if its wet at night and I do so many different styles with them! Anyways Ive always thought that if I ever wanted to have loose hair again I would brush the dreads out without caring if the hair would be damaged or not because it was already damaged before so, who cares? Now after hearing your story I decided that if I ever want to have loose hairs again Im going to cut my dreads because they have thought me how beautiful and awesome my hair is so a fresh start is what my hair deserves after how bad Ive treated it for so many years. Lots of love sent your way!

[@BlueSunShine1012]

Just discovered your channel :) love your vibe .."loving myself for myself " that's so beautiful :)

[@oceansea799]

growing hair after shaving is a long long proccess, you grow so much and acccept yourself, you are not your hair. you are not your looks! we are so much more!

[@scarlettwright142]

I love you guys! Lol I can't believe you shaved your dreads! It looks awesome 👍 I'm currently on my 8th month of my dread jouney (doing it all natural) having fun with it so far :)

[@KarinaLune]

The point if trimming ia to counteract a bunch of things; mainly split ends which if not trimmed, continue splitting all the way up the hair shaft which damages and weakens it leaving it susceptible to breakage, hence no length retention. So yeah, trims are best for length retention if you notice ragged ends.

[@ellies.8365]

Awwh, I love you so much. You're such a great woman

[@WiredAndStoned]

Ellie, this simple comment warms my heart-- thank you!

[@ellies.8365]

Of course! You're amazing.

[@barcodedloser]

I love your videos so please don't take this as a personal attack. But cutting your hair does in fact help your hair grow. Your ends of your hair become fragile, split, and then break off. Your hair will cut itself for you if you don't trim it. To take care of that and to make sure everything grows evenly and at its healthiest trims are the best way to go. I hope this helps you on your hair growth journey!

[@hippychicktarot]

barxcodedxloser completely disagree based on using both the ‘cut every 8 weeks tiny trims’ method and not cutting at all and in a year of trimming I only gained 3 inches and the following year of not cutting I gained 7” and my ends were healthier without cutting. I found I got split ends about two weeks after each trim horribly and barely any at all with just letting it be. We need to stop believing what people who make money on their “facts” say. Hair was made to grow. It was not created with the intention of needing to be trimmed every six to eight weeks... webonly believe this because hairdressers tell us this. Hairdressers are not biologist and that one statement has lined many pockets. My friend the hairdresser(who charges $250 for a haircut at a high end salon) told me it was hogwash and to only cut it if I want it shorter.

[@barcodedloser]

As she states in the video, the average persons hair grows about a half inch per month. Your hair may grow slower due to diet, genetics, etc. So I'm sorry that your hair didn't grow faster. That doesn't mean trims don't help. As a salon owner working on getting there instructors license I can promise you that this is true.

[@hannahdudley5263]

Actually, coming from a cosmetologist, you are wrong. Your hair grows from the scalp. Trimming your hair has absolutely nothing to do with growth. Scalp massages, vitamins, regular washing, and just leaving it alone is what is best. The reason you get split ends is from heat and the bad things you do to you hair. Also trimming will keep it even at the bottom, when you don't it results in the ends of your hair looking like a V shape. But trimming it will never help your hair grow. No trying to be mean, but it's sad for me to see so many people think and accept something as truth when it is very wrong. Just trying to help educate others on what's true. 😊

[@hippychicktarot]

barxcodedxloser that’s obvious that the instructors know it... again a cosmetologist is not a biologist and a certificate program is not a biology or physiology degree. Let me point out that...wouldn’t it benefit the industry to promote this belief? As far as I know the instructors are taught this and required to teach it in turn... keeping the bs alive lol

[@hippychicktarot]

barxcodedxloser and FYI my hair grows quickly and I have no diet issues but I love how you use that to debunk what I actually put to the test... again do some real research, not what someone else tells you

[@WiredAndStoned]

Hi guys:) Thanks for your continued support!

[@mariaaleistara]

🤣🤣🤣yas!! Makes sense don't cut it!! I have heard that my sister told me oh trim it..um like waaaa??

[@OrganicHippyFamilyHolisitc]

So, with all that you have said, would you do dreads again?? I have only just gotten dreads (11) and love my natural hair as well so I am wanting to enjoy the best of both worlds... Just would love to know if you are happier now or whether you would still like to have both???

[@missomario81]

And your hair looks great.

This is why I created a human hair wig with dreadlocks so when I want to take it off I just take it off wash my hair so nice ❤

[@chanakrevsky5584]

love your spirit!

[@RAVENMoonTarot]

I loved the dreads but you look great either way

[@emaostrizkova9844]

Interesting. Head&shoulders gave me more dandruff (or how is it spelled) than I had before. Used it just once and never did again. With natural shampoo I have no problems now

Not trying to be contrary, but trimming your hair may not help it grow, however split ends work their way up the hair shaft. Giving the appearance of shorter hair since the ends are not thick and healthy. They're frayed. Trims are VERY important when growing out your hair.

I love your glow 💛you are so✨Where is the Man? Curious on what you have been up to inbetween videos.

[@WiredAndStoned]

Thank you Kat! The man is in LA focusing on his business and his personal journey... I'll get to making a vid about our partnership. Thanks for caring 🙃

[@hannahharrelson5703]

I'm still growing mine out from a shave 😓 I want my dreads back so bad lol it's taking forever for it to grow back!

[@alexou1156]

They say to cut your hair a lil bit each month because lots of people hair breaks or split so it ends up not growing!!
