adding dreadlock extensions NO GLUE

[AaronVernonFOP]

Have you ever had any problems with the extensions falling out? I'm really worried that if I do this, they are going to fall out all the time :(

[DoctorKnotsDE]

Hi, check out some of my work on my Facebook page, Dreadlock Emporium, and feel free to ask me any questions. I have had my own dreads for over 4 years now :)

[chevon1920]

It just looks like you havent' combined your hair in 6 months. I know thats the idea but it looks awful. I have never, ever seen a white person or someone with naturally straight hair look nice in dreads.

[MrNuclearTorment]

@chevon1920 People always fail to understand that what YOU see and think is not what everyone else see and think.

A lot of people think she is very beautiful, and I personally think that her dreads are much nicer than a lot of black people with curly hair's dreads!

[chevon1920]

@MrNuclearTorment

Um no one said she was ugly, I think she's beautiful too, her hair looks terrible though.

[MrNuclearTorment]

@chevon1920 And that's your opinion. I think they look(ed) great!

[kolivennen]

when I'm putting my dreadlocks into my REAL hair (which is not dreaded), should I just do this or what? cant find any other tutorials.. :(

[artistenoire]

@kolivennen this girl has great videos about dreads, but also check out 2svj7 - she has an excellent video on adding dreadlock extensions which i am using right now!

[Missyyytease]

You are so cute!

[hebrebarn]

thanks for the video! I just wonder how long your hair was when you had your locks done?

[nbdreaming18]

Did your crochet hook ever bend when you had your dreads? Mine keeps bending! :(

[kaatteeriinaa]

I Think I'm in love with you. You are mad gorgeous.

[KaraaLeannee]

I'm getting dreadlocks soon, I LOVE that Streetlight Manifesto came on at the end :D

Thanks for your help you've made it a lot clearer and helped me figure out what I should do xx

[slurplesAlice]

they look good :) how mature would you say your dread needa be before they cna hold extensions?

[slurplesAlice]

how mature would u say a dread needs to be for an extension to actually stay in it lol

[MrsFrowningClown]

would baby powder work instead of the kind you used do you think?

[businesswoman207]

Have you figured out how NOT to stick yourself? I'm doing my locs now and just got my hook stuck. I do not want to do that again...

[TamarinTorpedo]

does it matter how long your dreads are if you want to do this? i have decently short hair and i would love to do this! would it matter if my real dreads are only a few inches long? and also how long did you leave the kenakalon in your hair? PLEASE ANSWER

[panda2XL]

you are mesmerizing. just sayin'.

[WiccanLunatic]

Where did you get your extensions from? I am having a seriously difficult time finding good extensions to dread off of ebay!

[MrsFrowningClown]

@WiccanLunatic Go to 'etsy' there are tons of them for decent prices. that's where I'm getting mine.

[JimmyWCTI]

you make it look so easy some how! im having a really hard time getting an extension to actually attach, does the lock peppa make a really noticable difference or is my technique just bad? anyone had much luck with this?

[elizalovebug19]

afro american XD



[jayclarke01]

im guessing you need dreads to start with for this to work?

[robrobusa]

Did you trade that Humanhair with a friend ? 

[vetcorvette68]

Hey!! Is that Five Iron Frenzy playing in the back round? LEGIT!

[Agzzz007]

Hi I have put in pretty much a whole head of extensions and I was just wondering how long yours lasted?? I ideally want them to stay forever

[kitkat7bar7sk8er]

what does lock pepper do? and where can you buy it??

[AlekAndroid]

@kitkat7bar7sk8er

lock peppa, not pepper, its a combo of ingredients, talc, zinc, blah blah blah.

knotty boy or dread head makes it, i forget wich one... my label rubbed off my container... its amazing... if you only buy one thing for your hair, lock peppa is it!!

[kitkat7bar7sk8er]

@AlekAndroid

oh thanks!! :)

[xXnobioneXx]

how old r u ??? you look mad young lol

[pais1212]

[KristynZerbe]

I like the background music :) js. Also, sweet fucking dreds!!!!!

[dreadedbuddha]

Hi, I've just got dreadlocks, they're about a week old. I've had to add extensions to them cause my natural hair was so short after backcombing. But the extensions have gone really itchy against my skin, they're driving me mad cause everytime my hair is down, the start irritating my skin like mad.

Did you find this with your extensions? And any tips on how to make them less itchy?

xx

[BillieJean4all]

@dreadedbuddha did you use any kind of product in them? if they are just messy you should try rubbing them in your palms with your palms together, to gather the loose hair that might be irritating your skin. message me if youd like :)

[wingsonmyback1]

so good advice, I have watched around 10 of your Dreadlock video's. I have been wanting them for a year now, I am 61 and dont have to work now, so dont have to worry about Boss not liking my hair. Just putting off making them , dont know if I can get the back good, but if you want something bad enough I will do it. Thank you for all your advice very helpful

[1973heaven]

thank you for the info<3

[heatherlb42]

Why do you have to put new extensions in?

[rickibrereton]

Hey Harriet, I know you don't have your dreads anymore, but I was wondering if you could remember how long the extensions you bought were? Just coz my dreads are only like 6" long so I reaaaaaally want to put some extensions in and I never seem to get the right length of hair lol! Pleeease answer back, I would be much obliged :3 x

[natrlgrl]

That's Amazing. I love it.

[oOTeOzKaNiBaLOo]

hellll ya its fuckin awesome when girl have dreads or mohawks lol

[jakexdeathanator]

i fucking love this girl

[NiceDeadGirl]

@S4ukk0

I wasn't being rude only honest. If I was being rude my last comment would have been worse. No hater sorry. So troll someone else. I know who I am so your little reply doesn't bother me.

I'm sorry if I came across rude I was just voicing what I thought.

Have a fantastic day

[NiceDeadGirl]

You look very young and your hair isn't that great. It looks..bad..damaged..just not that great. Sorry

[S4ukk0]

@NiceDeadGirl hah jealous plastic bitch cant handle that someone real with her own style gets so many compliments while you fake hater get only hate.. your saying in your video that you don't care about rude comments.. while your voice is shaking and your about to burst in tears :D and its funny how your saying to haters that no need to leave rude comments just close the video.. but your hating! you sure got some issues.. and not just with your face but seriously seek help!

[peropero101]

@NiceDeadGirl well thats what a dreadlock is. so just means you dont like dread locks haha.

[miradizzle]

1.) if that is five iron frenzy in the background I love you forever

2.) doesn't putting extensions in your hair kinda go against the "all natural" thing? lol how hippie..

omg now it's operation ivy. Hypocritical, yet such good taste in music. Although it IS their most popular song. minus one point.

[koreenthull93]

I don't have a crochet hook..is there an alternative I can use?

[naturesuphoria]

Anybody that loves hair as mcuh as I do is a friend indeed!

[dread668]

Its funny how white people can be raciest but yet try hard to look like black people.Very funny.because you have no culture.

[chachispeaks]

@dread668

Are you attempting to say she's trying to look black? I'm sorry, but if a black person straightens out their hair and gets it all soft and fluffy, I don't think they look "white". I think they've changed their HAIRSTYLE. Which is what white people are doing when they get dreads. And if you honesty judge all white people from all backgrounds because you THINK they have absolutely no "culture", I believe you're the racist one.

[koreenthull93]

@dread668 for your information, people of all cultures other than African Americans (and BEFORE African Americans) had dreadlocks. White people are racist? You're the one bringing attention to the idea that dreadlocks are for black people, when that's not necessarily true. As chachispeaks said, you're the racist one

[rickibrereton]

Just wondering where did you get that jumper from? It's amaaaaaazing!!!! And I wanted to say, I've had my dreads for just a month and your videos have been SUPER helpful as I had pretty much no idea of what I was doing haha! ^_^ So thanks! xxx

[moldycereal]

you are so adorable! definitely subscribing<3

[jmlvr123]

i was wondering, this is probably a silly question, but how do dreads grow back? do you have to back comb the new hair that is grown in? i hope im making sense...

[1245mitch]

@jmlvr123 yes but as they mature your hair will start to dread up at the roots by itself.

[Notsorps95]

Hi my boyfriend is looking at getting dreads but doesn't want them short so was thinking about adding the extensions but still not sure about what lengths or how much an so on. I know u mentioned it all in a different video but i just can't find it :[

please reply thanks.

[1245mitch]

@Notsorps95 if his hair is really short i would buy 18 inch extensions but if his hair is a little above shoulder length as mine was i just bought 14 inch extensions and it worked just fine for me they are down to my chest now

[iluvrandomnames]

where did you get the real hair from?

[loonyTFB]

WOW! i wasnt sure about this method but it really works! and so quick and easy, thanks

[ghostusher]

big d... streetlight..amazingggg

oh and youre not too bad yourself =]

[promisejr85]

I'm african american and i have of course african kinky hair. My question is if i do the crochet technique u showed can this be permanent where it wont fall out in the long run. I'm tryin to look for a way to make it look naturally my hair and permanent so it wont fall out.

[allikat6]

Your videos have been incredibly helpful, I appreciate it a ton! Been contemplating dreads for over a year and I'm the kind of gal that needs to do a ton of research so I know how to maintain them. I am not thrilled about losing length after dreading so this is a HUGE help. Thanks :)

[puredreadful]

30,000 views exactly, cool

[TheTonerT]

Amazing. You've made me so excited for my dreads!

[AKIYIAKELLY]

Interesting! Thx...

[CeeEmmz]

is it just me or is this girl stupid!?

cut her dreads and add another to make it the same length

like wtf is the difference of "EXTENSION" if you are cutting the loc that will just make it the same Length!

last time i checkd EXTENSION means to add/ extend

[megan4283]

@CeeEmmz She's taking out extensions she made with fake hair and adding ones she made with real human hair

[puredreadful]

@CeeEmmz Because the section she cut off was FAKE HAIR, so she cut it off where it was added, then she relaced it with REAL HAIR extensions. It wasn't her own hair to begin with (the section she cut off).

But if you'd listened then you would already know this wouldn't you.

[Ericadownerxo]

@CeeEmmz It's just you. She's far from stupid.

She clearly said in her other video's that the extensions were synthetic hair.

She was changing them to REAL HUMAN HAIR(Said in video too), because synthetic hair can't be dyed etc, real human hair is best to have in your dreads anyway.

[happybuddyperson]

is there a way to do this without crochet hook?

[highhopes2012]

your so cute and you make it look so easy

[bimba324]

ehi ciao! scusa volevo farti una domanda. Ma cos è quella polvere bianca che metti nel palmo della mano? cosè quella polvere bianca che serve a fare attaccare i due dread? rispondi. grazie mille! =)

[MrPinkey12345]

hey yo ma dear ill like to ask u something..

i got dreadlocks like.. 3 months and few weeks

n ill like to put extensions..coz its a bit short do u think is a gd time

for me to do it ? n wich one is better synethetic or human hair ??

ill be very grateful if you can help xX

[tumblinbobweezy]

@MrPinkey12345 DON'T use synthetic hair!!! Never. Ever.

[panget128]

do you use wax? would you recommend it?

[5ubZ3r0o]

@panget128 no!

[tumblinbobweezy]

@panget128 Wax just stays built up in your hair and it's really disgusting. Never use wax or anything like that. It stays in your dreads.

[panget128]

do you use wax? would you recommend it?

[Voileen]

I have a few dreads now and plan on letting my hair grow out from now till about april/may. I have wavy hair, but if I pull it straight it just barely touches my shoulders. I had natural dreads years ago as a kid and the were long. Its just me, but I really DON'T like short dreads on myself. I like them to be at least past my shoulders.

My question for you is this, do you think it is ok (when I start dreading the rest of my hair) to add extensions at that time and then just dread the extensions?

[blopsie]

Hey, cool vid, where can you get the lock powder stuff? I'm from Dublin so are there websites or anything?

[KunaiInnerSakura]

I love the five iron frenzy in the background. Great vid!

[oprescusimina]

uhm...i have 2 questions please if you're nice to answer...for dreads do you need kind of a thick hair or just a random hair, normal or whatever not very special in fact..? and the second question is: if i want extensions how long the hair must be? about 4 cm long is enough? thankew :)

[munktub]

I tried doing this, and i go swimming a lot, so i wanted to make sure that they wouldn't fall out... so i sewed them into the real dread after crocheting them. =D

i had them for about 5 months before i tried this, and it seems to be working well!

THannnnks for putting all your dread advice and stuff on youtube! ^_^

[MelodicBlackMedal96]

Lol so this is how Whites get dreads..... Looks Kewl :D

[grabus45654]

@MelodicBlackMedal96 I have natural dreads atm.

This is interesting though. But yes whites can get natural dreads =].

[Myownpickle]

How long can you leave the extentions in for? I'd think that if it was a human hair extention you put in, it would just lock in with your normal hair, right?

[TwiiZerN]

I wanna get dreads but got to short hair

[GMdoubleyoutoobe]

Where are the girls like you in America?

[themandikat]

Five Iron Frenzy!!

[cs100381]

sweet dreads! and rad music too!

Big D and Catch 22!

[MsMetalBabe100]

SO YOU HAVE TO DREAD LOCK THE KANEKALON HAIR RIGHT?... HOW DO YOU DO THAT?? WHAT DO U HOLD IT WITH.. TO DREAD IT?

[GMdoubleyoutoobe]

@MsMetalBabe100

Use a rubber band to hold the Kanekalon at the end and dread it to the band, remove the rubber band when the dread is done, apply the Dread peppa and crochet it to the frayed end of another dread of your choice.

[thatirieguy89]

Hey quick question. I know that when u crochet real hair in attempt to make some dreadies that they get real fuzzy and then persist in the following mass amount of lose and stragely hair. Is this the same with human hair extensions and do they stey upkept like that cuz im direly against wax ans most products. Ive had fine for like 3 1/2 months all natural and theyre lockin up nice but theyre soooo crazy. I want some lenght theyre only like 5-7 inches depending on which lock it is. pros and cons?

[MrDrugmind]

Can you add extension to another extension?

[DjMikal7]

i never thought of doing it this way

[PammyLaAnn]

THANK YOU!

I've been using clip in extensions since I got my dreads, cause their fairly short (about shoulder length) and my extensions bring them down to about wait-lenght, but i have to take them out before i go to bed, etc, and some days i just get to lazy to put them in.

but i showed this to my friends and their willing to help me do it

so THANKS XO

[maurocollins]

god, i almost fell in love with you

[sufjan74]

hey!how much should i use mm crochet hook?

[ImNotYourFriend212]

I really like your hair.

[luvsky99]

which do you prefer as the best to use for extensions, real hair or kanekelon also do you make the extensions and put them in right away or let the extensions sit for a while and palm roll before you put them in, my hair is a little than shoulder length and i would love to have them just a little shorter than yours, also, do they wash up ok, and just how often do you wash yours????thanks, xoamy

[GreenHatchetMan]

I love your videos! This helps me with my dreads sooooo much! Thank you, and keep rockin!

[RafeelyMustBeItalian]

I made the extensions my self and I crotchet them in

[MrBlueberryumyum]

how long have u had ur dreads and where do you get the extensions and what method did u use to get ur dreads?

[RafeelyMustBeItalian]

Heyy I'm going to put some kanekalon dreads that are about two and a half feet long how long do u thing I could keep them in until it's time to switch

[rachaelstevens2009]

what can happen if you add extensions before 2 months?

[flamingbassdude]

Am i the first one to guess that fire iron frenzy is playing in the background? I love dreads and i love your dreads!!! just got to say that. I've got really curly hair and its only been a month and they are locking up tight, but i got some really long roots in the back and loops everywhere so i've got to follow your advice and do some crocheting. I also had dreads 5 years ago and i've saved them and so i'm excited to use them as extensions. anyway i'll have a vid showing my dreads up soon.

[ftaemagicxxx]

fake dreads.. bye bye.. :))

you're so cute!!

[sheelagirl]

Omfg that was fast xD

[THtSk8r]

i think your hot. and you dreads are so fucking awesome. i cant wait to get mine. just waiting for my hair to get a little longer

[THtSk8r]

i think your hot.

[1lovelykaran]

whats loc pepper?

[MrBigizzy]

I've been growing my dreads for over 11 years now, they are really long. People ask me if it's all my real hair and my response is "Of course it's my real hair. What am I gonna do put extensions in it?" I didn't know people actually put extensions... That's kinda cheating. Just kidding.

[rid3k1nk152]

why would you do this to dreadlocks D:

[mrwillardo]

BIG D AND THE FUCKING KIDS TABLE

[R3dBirdMAN93]

you say that its the best way to dreadlocks hair but what about hispanic hair well im mexican and i want my dreadlocks to come out good, i still have my old hair i cut from march they're about 5 or 6 inches long

[shelovesmixtapes]

can you do it with fake hair?

[paperdove95]

where did u get your jumper, i love it , almost as much as your hair :)

[shelovesmixtapes]

what is that thing that you put in your hair before you added the extention?

[TRDreads]

@shelovesmixtapes lock peppa

[knottyrasta13]

[dAnImCaLi4nIa]

@cdp1011 idk where u live but I live in Canada and I got my kanekelon hair from a grocery store called superstore and u can also get them online and they have extension I think real hair at winners

Also u can Oder online

[cdp1011]

where can you get kanekelon or that type of hair and how much? i want dreads k thx.

[idreamincolours]

Hello! I've had dreadlock extensions before, but they were just braided and banded in for a short time... Now I have short hair about 2 inches long, is it possible to crochet dreads in to it? Or do I have to dread my real hair first? I just started watching your videos and I think you're style is awesome :)

[empathygreen]

did you have really thick hair or are your dreads just not very tight? also i cant seem to get my extensions to bind with my actual hair like youre doing in this video

[Tackles48]

I was wondering if I used kanekelon, would it shrink and become solid like my pre-existing dreads (super solid 1 year) or would it be painfully obvious that they are fake? The fake ones you removed look very good but I wasn't sure if it was the video or not

[KillahB89]

soo... is most of your hair fake?

[checkersmcs]

your so fucking sexy lol

[mrmakupants]

@checkersmcs haha and your a pig shut up asshat

[eLeMeNtsKaTeRgUy96]

hey i love your locks, im a guy and i got super thin, straight hair..which sucks cause i wanted to get dread locks, would i still be able to get them with the hair i have?

[mrmakupants]

@eLeMeNtsKaTeRgUy96 ummmm ur not asking meee but thin hair is good for dreads and the straight part can be overcome with persistance sooooo go for it dreads arent easy for anyone extensions are easiest goooood luck :D

[GustiTommyBillGeorg]

[7thstreetable]

[xxzxczx]

@urbanninja66 i would wait 2 monthes at least :]

[1245mitch]

@xxzxczx Question...why would you have to wait 2 months before putting in extensions?

[OhLaDiDaDiDa]

@urbanninja66 U can add extensions right away on the first day.

[LedJam0602]

[beccaisthepoppet]

Your videos are addictive. I've seen them all at least once, you're so nice to want to help others D

[blahconnie]

Hiya basically im thinking about dreading my hair up soon, i started like you and just have a few around my head and been saying that i am gunna do it fully all over for about 3 years now but ive decided to go for it :D I was just wondering how long you waited with your dreads before you added the extensions and how long you can keep em' in?

[ElleCakeyHead]

heyy i was going to ask you is there a natural alternative to lock peppa,i dont realy trust that shit.i have my extentions in already,but some of them are not so tight they seem to be hanging to very little hair.i just need to know what i should do :(

[megan4283]

Why did you cut off so much of your original dread to add the extension?
