I will go for thin synthetic dreadlocks that reach down to my waist. I've always wanted long dreadlocks hair and am so glad I've found your channel on here to get all the help I need to get started. With live from Australia. 💯

Your voice is so soothing omg. You'd be great at ASMR videos. I used double ended for the first time and I've never had such issues. Single ended are my homies hahaha... Definitely need to turn them into single ended ones because double ended keeps slipping out lolz.. hurting my scalp too :(

Question! I have been wearing wool dreads on and off for about 2 years now but I’ve noticed my hair thinning recently, I’m thinking from very early traction alopecia. Do you have any advice on how to keep wool dreads without causing stress on the scalp?

@mynxifi 2 жыл бұрын

hmm this is a very interesting thought, do you think maybe switching to a thinner type of dread would help since there are more sections and less weight? or even synthetic? im not sure if they are lighter or not though, just a thought maybe. I hope you can figure it out would hate to see a dreadhead fall! :(

@tabbyparker5156 2 жыл бұрын

Maybe a nice oil spray?? Tea tree and castor oil are good for your natural hair 💜 i hear dolly locks is good i personally would just buy my own oils..

I have 22" hair already, but I'm not sure if I should get single or double ended. I want to start off with partial first because I have a hard head, but my hair is fine/thin my scalp is not used to a lot of weight.

Hi Renae! For partials and fine hair I would suggest using single ended dreads! Hope this helps! -X- Renate

I was wondering if after I had them for 2 months and I wanted to continue having them for 2 more months would it be okay for my hair to take them out, wash my hair, and then reinstall them or should I wait a while before reinstalling them?

@dreadshop 2 жыл бұрын

We always advice to wait a few days, up to a week. To give your scalp and hair a bit of rest. We do have clients though, that don't do this, and directly have a set reinstalled. They're fine with this!

I have short thin hair do you recommend Se or De dreads and it’s my first dread set as well

@dreadshop Жыл бұрын

For thin short hair I recommend a combination of SE and DE with just a bit more SE than DE Dreads. Make sure to check if the length of your hair is long enough to braid them in. You might wanna choose for the Thin Locks of Love that hold better on short hair. Hope this helps!

If your hair is very thick, that's possible. I wouldn't advise it with very thin hair.

hello, i am a guy with short hair, i wanted to try growing my hair out for dreads but im just too impatient, could I get synthetic dreads or would they just slip out? im not an expert at all but i assume you would use a crochet hook to install synthetic dreads so i would then also assume that they wouldnt slip out? I can't find any answers on google so im hoping you can help me out. One Love ❤, Jah Bless💚💛❤

@dreadshop 8 ай бұрын

Synthetic Dreads are a great solution to let your hair grow! You can braid them in and they're endlessly reusable (the ones that we sell). If you wanna get real dreads (from your own hair) they can be extended with either human hair or synthetic locks. I would advise you to see a professional dreadlock stylist for this. The ones that we have educated are listed on dreadshopacademy.com
