I dig it..lots of the styles I find are for shorter locs, and hard for me to pull off, but this style is very doable for long locs and work appropriate. Very nice!

Hey sis I just stumbled upon your vids and I have to tell you that your styles are very nice. My locs are down to my waist and I dont plan on cutting them any time soon so updos can be a challenge at times so thanks for the ideas. keep up the good work.
Hello Shawnta715...I just wanna say thank you for your demos on how to do more with dreadlocks than the everyday ponytail....Please continue to provide more demos......take care
hey Shawnta i am a brother that just started watching your video diaryies, and i want to say you give the guys ideas also. so thankyou for taking your time out to doing what you do sista. peace.
i watched a couple of your other videos and i just want to say thank you for taking the time out your schedule to demonstrate and disprove the myth that you cant do much with locks. you are an inspiration and i truly appreciate it and by the way your hair is beautiful. I actually tried one of your styles and its in my hair now :-)
hey i have my girl do a few thinks with my locs, i saw this chick her locs in sumyhin that looked like a french or underbraid but it kinda strted in the middle of her head and went back but it was super neat like it looked like ur basket weave in the back, could you try that and do a video
Beautiful, I finally figured out how to do this hairstyle and yeah it dosen't always turn out the same, but its a welcome change from the 100 bobby pins lol
Hello Shawnta, you are absolutely beautiful! You need to make use of your skills and do what you do professionally. You would definitely make alot of money because you definitely know what you're talking about. Do you know how many locs you have because they are absolutely gorgeous. Peace and Blessings!
you have a lot of patience I would have gave up a long time ago! but when my hair gets long like yours (only 7 months in and they're JUST starting to shrink) i'll try this!
Shawnta, at first I was hesitant about what the end result was going to be. But I must admit I love the style. It might require a little patience and work but it is very sultry and smart looking!
I have a bit of a dilemma. I've tried this style and it my locs are a little bit longer. When I make the pony tail I have to use more hair than normal. So when I put it in the ponytail and tuck it it's still too long. I've tried making a bigger bun, which has helped some? Any suggestions?
Thank you, Thank you. My locs are about the length of yours. So finding a easy style to do and get it off my back for summer is great. Please continue to share.
I love it, I love it, I love it... it is soooo easy. I can't wait to wear my hair like this tomorrow... It's beautiful & you are too. Thanks sis, stay blessed.
Sista, thank you so very much for posting this easy to wear and 'do' up style. It's come at the right time, I'm going out this weekend to a couple of parties and I know this will be just the rite thing. Thank you for sharing with us ... Peace
This is awesome. My locs are a little longer and braided right now so instead of using a hair elastic I secured my ponytail with my own braid. I find elastics pull and give me a headache so this is a good alternative.
whats up my youtube people i have a question... i have real skinny dreads & im trying to twist atleast 3 or 4 together to make them bigger because when they get longer they will break off, but what can i use to make it stay without getting it platted? can somebody please respond? thanx... oh yeah im black so i got black people hair (just thought i'd slide dat in dere) & check out my commercial to see how skinny they are, they're a lot longer now but you get the point
Did a modified version on my daughter. I had to tie a black shoelace around the bun to make it all stay. Her locs are fatter and between long and medium. I put two mini spider clips on the side too to hold some of them in place. But it turned out just like yours only smaller.
ok my hair is about 4 and a half inch long i just died it you will see it soon i just got a camera i can't wait to show you so you can give me so ways to do it. my hair is not short hort, but not long long. so far it fits my face i will let you know when i start my very first video. ok bye.
i think these turorials are a good idea we need more,there are too many misconception abt locs ,that they cant be classy or conservative etc.and there are loc wearers who dont knw how to style there locs
Wow, that is awesome and so neat! That is especially a perfect hairdo for working in healthcare also! (Im a nurse) Thanks for the great idea, I will be using is when my hair grows a little longer!
Very lovely. My locs are not as long as urs or MsButterfli's, but gettin' rid of using those pesky hairpins is certainly worth knowing. I love your vids girl! There's a style that I've seen some sistahs wearin'...the bun look..it always looks so neat and perfect. Fauryn78 in her latest vid "chrome yellow" wears this bomb style, I think it's so sexy and sophisticated.
I dig it..lots of the styles I find are for shorter locs, and hard for me to pull off, but this style is very doable for long locs and work appropriate. Very nice!

Your hair would probably have to be a lil bit past the shoulders because you need to have enough hair to wrap around the folded over ponytail.
