  • Great voice!, now when are you dropping an album :)

  • wow! classic loc tut. I'm all into Rockabilly stuff and I want to do a victory roll with my locs, but I have a bang and REALLY long locs. I hope I could try something like it that won't have too much hair on my head

  • lookin' good

  • Brilliant!!! I wanted to do rolls and they just wouldn't form the way I wanted them to. So thank you!!!

  • @Aeanna89 thanks! check out my Chescalocs channel for more hairstyle tutorials!

  • Why is your dog licking the wall? o.o 0:19

  • @iiThrowStackzz that actually isn't my dog. that's a stray that i rescued and was keeping until we could take her to the animal shelter because it was closed when i found her. but i don't think she was licking the wall. it looks like she was eating something.

  • keep shining, you're a natural!

  • I love this! I did a miniature version of this on my locs (which are only JUST reaching shoulder-length) without even knowing what the style was called! Very cool! I found you because I tried setting my hair on perm rods last night - I used FAR fewer rods and loaded FAR more locs on each rod, but I was able to sleep no problem and it gave my hair a wavy, layered look which I really dig. Thanks for all these ideas which really help when i'm in between having the roots tightened. :)

  • @FabiFrankenstein you don't have to shave your head! you can actually comb out dreadlocks. it takes awhile, but can be done. check out shawnta715's channel, she has a great video about combing out her first set of 8 year old locs

  • you should be a jazz singer :)

  • too. adorable. and i love the tutorial!

  • I'm sooo gonna try this look and subscribe! Off the subject... how do you get your underarm hair removed so smoothly... they look airbrushed. Hoep this ? doesn't make you uncomfortable or seem inappropriate.

  • @marque235 Thanks! Ha! No, I've gotten that question before. Um I have no idea! I guess I'm just lucky? I use generic razors from CVS, and shave with body wash instead of shaving cream. Nothing special.

  • @chescaleigh Thanks for responding! Yes, you are lucky. I could shave a hundred times a day and still see fine hair. Thinking about waxing...Ouch!

  • @marque235 Oh no! That stinks! I've never been able to wax regularly (I did a brazillian once and wanted to die) but I hear it gets better over time. And it also thins your hair. I've considered laser since I hate shaving. But I've heard mixed things about the results

  • I think a flower in your hair would have been cute too,you did a great job thanks for posting :-)

  • Awesome! I'm so psyched to find your videos, thanks!

  • youve got good dreads:} im to scared to get real ones so i go with exstentions

  • my god thank you sooooo much for this video! I have dreads as well and i failed so many times trying to do this haha

  • locs do not belong to rastafarians it is a style worn by mankind since the begining of time! so no disrespect but, get your facts straight lyteyearproductions.

  • Thanx for the excellent video! Very much helpful.

  • I am IN LOVE with the first hairstyle. Head over heels. When my bangs are longer I'm going to try it.

  • well where im from to grow locs and not be a rasta is disrespectful to god locs are a cultural and religious thing and to grow them without excepting jah is very wrong and in certain places in the world they would cut your locs off they way in which you stlye thm tells if you real ras or fake dread JJJJJJJJJJJJAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH­HHHH rasta fari

  • @LYTEYEARPRODUCTIONS  Please stop playing cool and go read a book on the subject and learn your history.

  • @LYTEYEARPRODUCTIONS My name is Franchesca, not baby :) I'm not rastafarian, but there's no law that says you have to be rasta to wear locs. The same way you don't have to be a skin head to wear a shaved head, or long hair to be a metallica fan. It's a hairstyle that I love and choose to wear. I find it more disrespectful that a stranger on YouTube feels they can tell me what I should or shouldn't do with the hair on my head.

  • this is so true...besides africans were wearing dreads way before the rasta culutre started...

  • @LYTEYEARPRODUCTIONS I really can't believe that a) Rastamen think we want to be called baby and b) that guy honestly believes that it is 'disrespectful' of you to choose to wear your hair in a way that people have been wearing it for LITERALLY THOUSANDS of years before Rastafarianism was created. I really can appreciate a lot of things about the movement but come on...seriously?

  • @LYTEYEARPRODUCTIONS This is not true about being a rasta to wear locks. God gave black people this hair for a reason (lamb). My grandfather is from Ghana and the women and men have always worn locks. Many other tribes all over the world has always worn locs. It is the only way to maintain your hear without it hurting via styling. Black people need to do a better research about their hair. I'm shocked at this comment. Thanks.

  • @KECHEA lol this is not a one race hairstyle .. especiall true natural dreads that form from not combing its in ever race many nazirates have locks like the bible samson he may be black n stuf fbut thats not the point .. ther r dreads n ever race to the asians to the white vikings to the jamaicans to natural occurance of the not combing being a nazirate n that time frame more then likey had dreads see what im sayn tho its a all people hairstyle

  • @beastofpeace If you read my comment again you will see that I said "Many other tribes all over the world has always worn locs". However, I can only tell you about the hair that naturally locks. When blacks want to wear locks all they have to do is wash and go and the hair will lock. Most others hair is tangled because it does not roll back into itself. It is not curly so other things are done for that hair to lock. I don't care who rock locks just don't cut mine, lol.

  • @KECHEA yea i understand bro but tangles? lol man thats jus the same equivalent to like when black guys locks come together n make big dread lol like u notice wit bob marley his dreads started comin together near the end the longer he hadm n yea sum people who other races rock em n they look nice .. i agree tho let all people wear them naturally or whatever but i dot want mines to be cut too lol .. :)) but im not a big fan of this backcombed n twisted dreadts etc. i like to jus let dread itself

  • Are you into astrology? What's your ascendant (rising sign)???

  • @sublimityeternal All I know is that I'm a sagittarius, Nov 29th. Why?

  • @sublimityeternal Just curious. You have a very lively personality. Your rising sign is how you appear to the outside world, and is just as important as your sun sign. So if you are a Saggitarius and you have for instance, a Scorpio Ascendant, you would come across in an intense, emotional manner, like scorpios.

  • You're fantastic! Thanks for the great video!! :)

  • Where can I buy foam rollers?

  • I am mooost definately doing this on my girlfriend's dreadlocks! =D haha

  • i know this is old...but i looooooove this! i actually just recently dreaded my hair, theyre still babies but ive been looking into hairstyles and this is by far my favorite! it was one of my favorites before i had dreads too and im so happy its still possible to do them. thanks! youre so cute and you sing so well, too <3!

  • not really. but i'm human.

  • this was help full... i have dreads and im always like.. ehhh ill just wear them up in a pony.. its gets frustrating trying to like find easy hairstyles.. lol but thnx :]

  • Haaa! Um ok. Thanks!

  • Well only in this video though, I love all your other videos especially the one in the elevator lol I ttly know how you feel there.

  • While I don't take it personally,Keep in mind that comments like that are rather rude. Why would you tell someone their personality is boring? Especially when you don't know me and that isn't true in the least. Dispite being a youtuber, I'm a real person with feelings. And comments like that are unkind. Please be mindful of that next time you comment. Thanks.

  • Well, sorry I offended you .

  • You missed the point of my comment. You didn't offend me! I know I'm not boring. What I'm saying is, I want people to be more aware of what they say to people in real life and on the Internet. I don't see any value in saying something rude to a stranger. I just don't. Not offended, not upset at all. But thanks for the apology anyway.

  • Oh no I got your point you made it clear in your last response that you weren't offended. I just apologized for stating that.

  • Cool :) no hard feelings,

  • Very Cute

  • this was a sweet surprise. i'm looking into getting dreads, and i came across your video. i'm a huge jazz fan... i wish i could hear a recording of you done with the old equipment to give you that classic sound.

  • You are very pretty with an awesome voice. Thanks for the video, got great ideas from it

  • very pretty and adorable. i love the end. nice voice!

  • im in luv

  • Your dreads look really good.

  • I can't even get that done with my straight hair. xD

  • THIS GIRL IS SO SEXY=)

  • u r very beautiful gurl

  • I really enjoyed receiving the new styles. Now, I have alot of ideas I can creat from your direction. Thanx!

  • i llllllllllllooooooooooooveee it

  • wow, you never know what someone is hiding in their body,lol. cool singing voice!

  • your dreads are amazing! and I love the victory rolls

  • You are awesomely creative! But I cringe a little at using rubber bands on my locks. Might I suggest Scunci "No-Damage" elastic ponytail holders, instead?

  • PS - an alternative to metal bobby pins might be Sta-Rite plastic hair pins. I haven't yet tried these, so I don't know if they are sturdy enough for locks. But they are similar to some plastic tortoise shell hairpins I used to have years ago...

  • you are really beautiful!!!!

  • how many dreads u have?

  • 114

  • wow thanks :)

  • u can sing...thats awesome..who wrote that song

  • it's by fats walker

  • HEY i REALLY LIKE THAT HAIRSTYLE BUT MY HAIR IS MUCH SHORTER WELL MY DREADS ARE THAT MUCH shorter. do you have any style for short hair>

  • i mostly focus on styles for my length of hair, since that's what i have to work with. but check out my happy birthday hair video. i have tons of photos of the beginning stages of my locs and how i would style them.

  • i had 103 about an hour ago, got in the shower, shampooed and squeezed the shit out of em and i saw one hanging on for its life when i got out, so i pulled out the scissors, something i havent done in 5 years.. the dreads by my temple are starting to get frail at the roots, i dont want to cut that area either.. i like the natural look : [

  • you could always combine them so you don't lose anymore! if worse comes to worse, see a loctician, i'm sure they'll be able to help. best of luck!

  • Comment removed

  • wow the ending was both artistic and kinda eerie! :)

    but i wish i saw this when i had my dreads...i cut them after 10 yrs, it was fun while it lasted!

  • i have 166 =]

  • hey chescaleigh do you have any advice for me because i just started my dreads on may 1st this year,i think she used the comb method to start,but what is a realistic time table to notice locking and growth?

  • everyone is different, but it usually takes anywhere from 6 months to a year to be fully locked.

  • oh ok thanks,like i said i just got mine literally but i am going to try to put together a video of my journey throught the 1st 6 months of my joureny

  • been watching your videos for the past hour now i have no choice but to subscribe.

    You are absolutely stunning, funny smart and talented. a true queen

  • thank you! i was wearing a transparent red gloss from the body shop. i'm not sure what it's called...i've had it for ages. i'll dig around and see if i can find it for you.
