I wish I had a hair stylist this caring and knowledgeable.

Black Excellence at it's finest! An educated,respectful,and honest man that truly cares about others. You are truly a blessing and I hope God continues to bless you and your business...much love :)

I would pay MILLIONS to have a stylist with this level of professionalism and thoughtfulness for clients! Bravo Brother Bravo! ❤👏🙌🏽❤

One more time 4 the ppl in the back!!! Conditioners don't have cleaning agents in them!!! lol

This man put me in the game with the knowledge he gives out and common sense he has that others are lacking

I love your level of integrity when dealing with clients. You could have easily just installed starter locs and took her money which is what many stylists would have done. As an emerging stylist, it's so refreshing for me to see because the health of my clients hair/scalp is most important. Thank you for being one of the few examples and I can't wait to share my growth as a natural hair stylist with you! 💖

I like that he wants to make sure people are coming to him for the right reasons, and want them to be educated about how to properly care for their hair.

"We're trying to start locs, not start alopecia!" LMBOOOOOOO! Damian, you are a mess!

I love the way you are spitting knowledge before hand, and giving the client advice as well. Keep it up.

I'm a new subscriber and I don't even have loc's but I've been watching these videos 🤣🤣🤣

This was a great reminder to stand your ground when you go to a "professional hair stylist". A lot of these stylists don't use the right products and they don't know their craft. And you can't ask no damn questions without them getting offended. I've left too many chairs unsatisfied after paying my hard earned coins, praying that i would have some edges left. I've put my hair in the hands of stylists who turned out not to know a thing about natural hair. No more! Thanks for this information Damian. Especially for that tip about trimming. Never realized that combing out trick. Can't wait to take these braids out and give my hair some TLC. Pray for my edges y'all. I will definitely be coming to you if I decide to start my locs.

Look how long he spent with her and didn't get a dime from her...she said it--he cares when others are all about the money!

I love the way you sit them down and talk to them before starting they hair I never seen a hairstylist do this I need to meet you asap and bring my older sister cause I had her hair growing back den boom she stopped coming to me and now she has no hair one the sides and black smh 🤦🏽‍♀️

the goat of loc knowledge

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! You just dropped so much knowledge in this 26 minute video, it was crazy!!! Priceless information! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

"I don't want your scalp to look like a Ku Klux Klan meeting either" I'M WEAK! LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Excellent consultation. Excellent customer training too.

That was one of his best videos! Great information presented in a clear way, light humor, simple and direct.

It's like he's interviewing her a position to become a locked sister. 🤣🤣

CONSULTATION! CONSULTATION! CONSULTATION! This makes me so happy to see a professional in action diving deep into proper education and consulting before the service! This type of professionalism has been drilled into my head in Cos school. To be honest I wish more stylists were like this. This video has been super eye opening. I'll be starting my loc journey and watching your videos has definitely given me a grating starting point. Xoxo

"...don't let her just avocado you like that...". I can't with him :D

Can you do a follow up video of these clients start up locs, I'm interested see their journey...?...

Amen!! Do your research ask questions don't settle

“You didn’t go to chipotle to get your hair done” 😂😂😂

I'll be coming to see YOU!!! I love the fact to you do a consult with your clients before you even attempt to do "ANYTHING" with their hair. What I see in you is a very educated, caring and knowledgeable stylist. I have been contemplating locs for a while now and I think I am ready to do this. Thank you Damian!!

"don't let that Bitch just avocado u" LOL I'm 💀

The thing I LOVE about him is that he educates his clients. He educates us (his viewers). He has a good conversation with them which shows that he cares and loves what he does. The day I finally decide to get locs, I’m going to him.

I have learned so much from you and my hair(locs) I can say.. doing very well.. gratitude for these videos 😘

This was a good reminder for naturals to trim. I decided to begin trimming this weekend so I'll be ready for locs this Spring.

I love this dude right ...and conditioner don't have cleaners in it 😂😂😂 He got me wanting to fly to Houston for an appointment 😳

finally somebody saying it...conditioners are not for washing your hair.....please people wash your natural hair

I admire the love you have for your job and the compassion you have for your clients. GOD has blessed you with a gift. I am hooked on your videos. To see clients faces light up is awesome. Keep up the good work and sharing the love.

💙 his mind and delivery...keep informing us

This might be unrelated but Damian you fine as hell!

They now actually having co-washes that have cleaning agents in them now for a gentle cleaning in-between shampoos. Paul mitchell makes a good tea tree co-wash

“And conditioners don’t have cleaning agents in them” I learned that the hard way with my youngest daughter when I used to always cowash her hair. She broke out with sores on an infected scalp. But you live and you learn.

this video makes me respect u even more. you the first stylist I've seen not turn people away, but tell them 1. we can't do this today 2. here's what we can do so next appointment u can get what you want and it will work with your hair. can't say enough how awesome u are. keep it up.

I am so glad that I found your channel. You are such a knowledgeable stylist and the sarcasm.......yes, Lawd!

OMG thank you so much, I am right where that first client is with wanting to start my locks and have been to see several people about getting locks started and never received this type of information. One lady even told me that she would recommend that I get interlocks that would cost $700.00 because she was not comfortable palm rolling my hair because it is too long and she would have to cut off 6 inches. So thank you so much for your explanation, you have just saved me a lot of time heartache and money, I will be doing just like you said to achieve healthy scalp then worry about locks at a later date. Thank you for keeping it real... Love You

He said we trying to start locks not alopecia

thank you for this i cried because it’s so true. i been used to just sit down and trust the stylist. no more research from now now. i am in the process of get my hair health so i can get it done when you come to atlanta

I love the fact that you talk to your customers and let them know what you are doing and trying to find out what the customer has been doing with their hair. It was touching to hear you say that you were not charging her for giving her a wash and condition. Because you are showing that you are a concerned stylist. I love your videos, even though I am not trying to have locs. I am natural. I have been natural since '13. I am scared to perm my hair. Due to the last time I permed it I knew that it was damaged (over-processed). Another reason is because I am on a lot meds. I do have a head full of hair, but it is crazy. So I am watching your videos in order to find out information on what to do in order to get it to be healthy. Thanks for sharing your videos.

Wow! You are the truth! I don't know if you will see this, but just in case you do, please do consultation about older, graying , thinning hair starting locs.

Haha gotta be prepared for a interview when you go see Damian 😂

If only I had my driver's license, a reliable car, and lived in Texas near his shop, I would be going to him for my hair.

I just want to say you are a rare gem, thank you for speaking truth about the loc journey to potential clients and not taking their money. One of the many reasons why people get devastated after a year into their loc journey.

thank you God for mentioning that conditioner do NOT Clean HAIR. people going crazy with all irrational unrealistic method just because they see it on KZfaq and think they doing something.

MOST LOCTICIAN, JUST TWIST YOUR HAIR ANY KIND OF WAY, TAKE YOUR MONEY AND PUSH YOU OUT THEIR CHAIR AND DOOR!!!!! BUT DAMIAN WALTER GIVES WONDERFUL INFO ABOUT YOU AND YOUR HAIR AND SHOWS THAT HE CARES:) I LOVE IT AND HE IS ALL WORTH IT!!! GREAT JOB DAMIAN

His list got me😂💀

My current loctitian does this! Now I know I have the right one.

I love how you educate them on the process, what look they want once its grown so u knw how to start it and making sure the hair is healthy instead of just taking their money.

This is one of the best videos I've seen from you. Educating a client on their hair condition and treatment is so important and is lacking with a lot of stylist. You shooed that you care and love what you do. I watch a lot of videos and I definitely learned something new today. Thank you !

Beautiful hair!! Can you post a video of when you're starting her locs please

I like your attitude and heart for your customers. Thank you for your videos! It's much appreciated since I'm not close enough to come into your shop so I can study and learn to do locs on my own. Other than watching your videos, do you have any suggestions for me if I want to start locs on my kids hair?

I'm not trying to loc but he's educating me on my natural hair fr

this brother always educate you on the know aka dos and donts

He's a natural teacher! Pro education! Luv it!

this is so amazing the dialect with the client. that has helped me a lot.

Co"washing" NEVER made sense to me, I hollered at that PSA! 😂😂

This man is very knowledgeable! Helped me decide on how I’m going to loc my sons hair now. Was going to do the interloc method but he’s changed my mind and I will now do the coils. I also learned to use less product as before I was going to use gel now I won’t. You’re a saving grace! Will be following.

Damian, you are an awesome stylist. I have never heard a stylist conduct a consult/assessment the way you did in this video....Kudos.

Omg best hair stylist video I’ve ever watched. Soo worth the full 26 minutes

We miss you!!!!!!!! so, knowledgeable and insightful. Blessings for sharing. Knowledge is power.

You're so knowledgeable!! I'd like to know your view on sisterlocks/microlocks?

Anddddd conditioners don't have cleaning agents in them!!!!!! You wouldn't wash your a** with conditioner..... Tell these folks

I've been watching your videos for sometime just because I love how knowledgeable you are. Now I am actually considering locs because I feel I have gotten the proper information to start locs. Thank you!

The knowledge... wow the knowledge. These are amazing questions. I have a consultation Friday and feel more aware of what to ask. Thank you

So do conditioners have cleaning agents in them? :)

Im only 3 mins in and this man teaching me and got me cracking tf up all in one 😂💕love to see it

i most definitely would travel from STL to him because he takes pride in how he does people hair and he's very informative.

I so wish I was in your town. I want locks and my research has been horrible. I love the educational aspect. I've been natural for 7 yrs.

I truly love you for being honest and truthful to your clients and letting them know what to do to their hair before you start the locks. Where are you in Htown.

I love this. I love this so much. This was so educational and necessary for me because I intend to start my own journey. Thank you for putting this out there.

Scalp looking like a Ku Klux Klan meeting lmaooooooo

I wish you were in NC!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lord I need someone like you.

I can’t even get through this video without laughing! This was really good and so informative! Awesome job!

I had to learn the HARD WAY conditioner does not clean your hair. I co-washed for NINE months and month nine my hair fell straight out and it was shoulder length. My scalp was so inflamed it hurt and I ended up having to go to the barber shop and cut my hair into a TWA.

Very, very professional!!! I need you in my hair life.. I'm going to have to manifest this trip! 😊🌸🤗

Thank You for being honest about the state of the hair and not just telling these women anything.🚫🤥👍😘

I love how specific your questions are....because we are all thinking it but afraid to ask.

Yasss 5:58 People need that repeated PSA!! LOL

Thanks for the reminder that I need to trim my hair!!! Great video Damian. Very informative.

I don’t want and never wanted locs but I need his videos on a binge basis🤣😂🤣🤣❤️💕❤️💕

Sighs.... I wish I could sit in your chair! Yes, I’m ready to answer your questions!! I’m glad I found your channel before I get loc’d

😂😂😂😂the gun shots/fireworks had me 💀💀 when combing her hair.

thanks for the information....💯💯

Very knowledgeable and caring. Reminds me of my boss when I worked at a salon.

I have been watching your videos for a little while now and have learned soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much! I am a loose natural and am going to be starting my loc journey soon. Thank you for taking the time to inform, teach, let us have it and letting your colleagues know what time it is. #teacher #blessedhands

the last girl had real hair issues... glad I am watching and learning the basics of locs before starting loc extensions

Dude know his stuff.

Congrats on 200k subbies 🍾 🥂 🎉

Thank you for this content. I've recently noticed that my scalp has started itching/flaking. It hasn't been growing as fast as it used to. I stumbled upon your channel this weekend & really appreciate that you cater to not just dreadlocks, but to natural hair overall. I'm guilty of everything she has done in her regimen (the 1st client). Thanks to you, I realize what I need to change & will be doing so ASAP. Looking forward to renewed success in my hair journey

So informative. You've given me so much knowledge, and I know what to ask the lociticians I'm interviewing before I start my loc journey.

I Plan to get locked in May and was hoping you could speak more on the different parting patterns (especially fan and diamond/triangle).

...😂😂😂not Dandelion piss

I do not know about everyone else, but I'm ready for another video to come up

Love this guy we need more people like him. Wish he was in NY!

This has helped me so much. I was going to start my dreads this weekend but now I see I need to let my scalp breathe and get rid of these flakes.

I found this dude page & it’s motivated me to do my research fr I just started mine

Love this video. Great information. Thanks for sharing 🤗
