    I'm so damn insanely proud women are wearing their hair this way now! I had natural locks just like this 10 years ago and so many people told me I was nuts for this! "You cant do that! The rest of your hair is gonna lock and look terrible." 🤨 "not if i brush it though..." I loved the fact that I could still deep clean the top of my scalp, the only place i have dandruff issues, and had the option to cut bangs if i wanted! Damn I miss that hair! Should have never let them convince me to chop it... I'd have real dreads to my butt by now!❤

    Love this video! I am getting my very first set of dread exts put in this weekend by my stylist. I figured for the first time I would have them professionally installed. In the meantime, I have watched so many videos on self install and yours is in the top 3! Especially with the sectioning! Very informative and encouraging! I think I might try doing it myself once they are ready to come out and be reinstalled! Thank you!

    Im pretty sure it depend on how strong your hair is, like for weaker hair id say like a month or less and for stronger maybe like 2 months. I dont know exactly but i think that 2 months is enough so the dreads wont damage your hair as much.

    Wish you would have shown what it looked like before you added the extra 12 for extra volume. I'm really wanting dreadlock extensions but 40 seems like alot. I'm really struggling with how many I should get for the desired look I'm wanting. My hair is super long end of my back just right at my bottom and not really thick pretty much all one length.
