Been doing this for yrs LOL. Only other piece of advice is if you don't want it to be permanent use a synthetic yarn. Natural wool will bind with the loc. And stay away from shark's tooth decorations. Laid down wrong on one once and thought i was bleeding to death when i woke up.

Afternoon! My little sister has dreads and they have broken of badly and my mom wants me to yarn wrap them to help repair them. Could I use the same method you did with the first dread? and start from the root?
@niquesoasis10 жыл бұрын
Alexis Brown I've had a few friends who actually wrapped their locs with kinky textured afro hair to thicken it, but I can't say for yarn (I've only seen it as a style) You should ask a licensed loctician who knows more about this, so you can be sure of what should be done...especially since they're broken badly :( If I hear of anything, I'll definitely let you know :)
@omeganme8 жыл бұрын
I read that, on new locs, the first method will stunt its growth and loc pattern. My locs are 7 months old, shoulder length and have already started to loc. However, the ends of them are still puffy and frizzy from when I first got them installed. I'm not ready to cut the tips yet, but I want to minimize the frizz and puffiness (palm rolling doesnt seem to make it uniform with the rest of the loc). Would this be a good method for my problem? Or would wrapping it with kinky hair instead of string be a better option?
@niquesoasis8 жыл бұрын
+omeganme It sounds like your locs are still in the beginning stage. Around that time, you'll still notice frizz and puffiness, so I would give your hair some more time to form. You should notice a difference around the 9month- a year. At the same time, it's normal, so don't get discouraged. If you're still not satisfied, it could be good to try the kinky hair method (I know people who have tried it) It helps with the loc'ing process. Also, a trim is great too (if you have the patience)

If your locs are small, I'd wait a bit.

I typically leave it in until I'm ready for a change or until I get ready to wash my hair. Everything comes out (usually at the end of every month) Sometimes, it's two weeks.

I usually snip the end where the knot is and take my time unraveling. Since wrapping and unraveling takes time, I normally stick with the cross-cross wrap style. It's just easier to deal with now that hair has gotten longer. And it saves time! :)
