Last night I needed a style to try for today. I actually did this style...LOVED it..and was easy...Thansk for your creativity and tutorials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just a suggestion for some super amazing hairbands... if you have a walgreens near by, they have started to sell rubber elastics (the entire elastic is made of what feels like silcone). you literally cannot stretch those bad boys out... I've tried! I have REALLY thick hair... now they probably won't work on all of your hair at once but for your small parts, it's better than the traditional cloth type elastics for SURE!!

love it!!! im getting dreadlocks in 2 years and they're going to be thinker than yours, maber 2.5/3 times bigger....hopefully when i do this it will look as good as yours!
Thank you so much!! I was on the verge of cutting my locks off...I've been locking since 2005 and they are down the middle of my back. Growing very tired of them dangling in my face and getting in the way. Found your video. Awesome! I appreciate you taking the time to show us your tricks. It's looks like you went to a salon to get your updo! Thanks again. How do I subscribe.
Chescaleigh, you are my loc mentor! After 2 years of being natural (2nd Nappiversary is 9/20) I have decided to loc my hair....and your videos have been such an insiration!! Thanks!
Wow, I am so happy I found your video! My locks are thick, and heavy and down to my waist. Been growing them for almost 10 years and I have been so frustrated trying to style them in some way more interesting than a ponytail. But I could never seem to control the unravelling for any updo I managed to make. Now I know the secret is in BIG hair pins and hair ties! This hairstyle is beautiful and so easy to do--I love it! Thank you Chescaleigh; you're my shero! :)
I had Dreads for more than 10 years and never did any style with them. Since I started watching your videos and others from Youtube, i am so inspire!! I will send you couples of pictures.
Thanks so much for posting... You are such a good instructor... LOL I did my first sucessful style today. I'm so proud I'll be sending a pic lol. Keep the videos coming... Namaste
hey i tried that same hair style. i like it. i just wish there were more tutorials for men on here. every style that i do r for females. so i try to make it look more manly.
Your locs are far from unkempt (that uneducated "unkept" comment made me laugh out loud). I find that most people who speculate that locs are dirty are just projecting...If such a person had locs, they would probably keep them dirty.
forget whoever made the comment about locs "looking dirty". i got my just had my starter locs put in yesterday so MORE POWER TO DIRT! some people can be so ignorant. You rock Chescaleigh and you're gorgeous wit locs and all. :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this is my opinion so dont get offended . . I thnk dreads look dirty, and unkept youll look so much prettier with another hair style. U should really consider
turns out, my hair isn't dirty. even though you think it looks that way. not interested in if you think i'm pretty or not but thanks for trying.
and don't worry, i'm not offended. but you have to realize how silly it is to say something rude and then tell the person not to get offended. that's a complete oxymoron.
You are a god send.. Thanks for showing your how tos..I have shoulder length locs and I was getting ambivalent wearing them in the same style.. Thanks to this post, I'm sporting an updo tomorrow.... Keep them coming...
ohmygoodness! i just saw shawnta's video!! i think she looks beautiful, but i'm really surprised that she picked hers out. i didn't see that coming...
no, you asked: "really? i know fauryn took hers down, but who else?"
so i said the other person who took them down is msned12. i already know about shawnta715. so the tally is that there are at least three youtube loc bloggers who have taken down their locs.
That is soooo cute..I can't wait till my locks are long enough to do this..mine are barely touching the back of my neck and I have no idea how to style them..
have you seen my happy birthday hair video? there are a few shorter styles in that video. you can always do a braid out or rollers. you can also play with your bangs and throw in some accessories. hang in there!
Hey....i have always loved your dreads...they have really grown...question...I am 5 months into locking and my locks are locking, but there are lot of scraggly pieces that hang off the lock...like i have to take the stray pieces and wrap around the lock...does that go away? Thanks
i've been fortunate not to have that many problems with lint, but the best suggestion i have is to start using dark colored towels when you dry your hair. i use dark navy blue as opposed to white or grey. also, wrapping your hair at night and using a silk pillowcase is helpful too. most of the lint that locs attract are from towels and pillows. hope that helps! best of luck
i did the criss cross ponytail bun from her vid for my holiday party last year. it came out great on my locs, but i didn't do a bun in the back, i did a ponytail. and i didn't use any pins, i just tucked the hair into the ponytail holder.
no, i didn't do the basket weave one. i just criss crossed the two front pieces like she did in style #1. i want to try to do it with a basket weave in the front, though! i was afraid it would look too bulky with locs, but it looked great when you did it!
yeah i cant wait until mine get down to my back...im depending on you for some dope styles...i heard it was pretty much down hill once they reach your butt, but ill make it work!
Hey girl !!! I wanted to stop in and first of all thank you soooo much for the videos their both educational and entertaining so thank you....but i also wanted to ask if you could do a how to on thta lady gaga tyle you did on your blog...it was like a bowtie? minnie mouse look. Its soo cute an dI would love to know how you did that! thank you again you have a great rest of that day girl! byebye
wow your amazeingly pretty and when i get older i told my parents i wanted to get dreadlocks and they are totally against it so i think im gonna show them all of your viedos so they know that their not like cave man dreads any more thanks so much
Hi! Always love your hair videos. I love that little effect with the mirror, I know it's not intentional but it reminds me of that mirror video you did back in the day. Anyway, I love this style but I actually adore your wavy hair. How did you get that effect? Please reply. Thanks much! p.s. I can't believe how much your hair has grown!!!
funny you say that because i liked the effect to! it actually wasn't completely spontaneous :) my hair is wavy because i did a roller set last week and it's still curly. glad you like it!
have you watched my happy birthday hair video? when my hair was shorter i would do pin curls, pinned bangs and also wear a lot of accessories like headbands and scarves. i know it's a tough time, but you just have to hang in there!
thank you, thank you so much for this tut. my locs are now down to the middle of my back, and a little difficult for me to style in an updo, but I love this one. It's very cute!!!
every hair type is able to loc. the only difference is the method and how long it takes to get there. i've seen people of all backgounds with locs, including Caucasians.
I love this style. I may have to put my hair in twists to recreate the textured loc look since I don't have dreads. But you always do such regal looking styles.
you mean how to maintain your roots? check out my hair confession's video. i retwist my roots in that one and i also retwist my roots in the bantu knots video
Im not sure. You ever heard of the super group Twiztid, they got their start from Insane Clown Posse, and have these cool ass Twists in their hair. Could you check for the video "We Don't Die" and look at them and see what I mean while I check your har confessions?
it'd be hard for me to do a tutorial for that style since i don't have loose hair, but basically they parted their hair into squares, secured with rubber bands and then probably added product to their hair to make it stick out. you could even use pipcleaners or another type of wire. the hair is basically separated into 2 pieces and twisted together and then secured w another rubber band. hope that makes sense.
you don't need locs to do a majority of my hairstyles, including this one. the girl who originally did this style had braids, but there's no reason you couldn't do this with loose hair. most of the styles i do are inspired by loose hairstyles and i just adapt them to work with my hair ie. the suzanne bun, the victory rolls, the beehive. those aren't styles for locs, they're just regular hairstyles.
and keep in mind, i'm not a professional hairstylist. so i know how to work on myself and that's pretty much it. youtube is FILLED with hairstyle tutorials for "normal" hair and not very many for locs which is why i started making videos in the first place. just search, they're out there i promise. best of luck!
thanks! my roots tend to get fuzzy, but i just recently retwisted them likeeee a week ago? other than that, i don't really do anything to them. i don't even palm roll! how long have you had your locs? that makes a difference as well. they tend to be fuzzier in the early stages and smooth out as they mature.
Love the style...simple, fast and looks perfect for the summer. Gracis!
btw...had never noticed your baby hairs until tonight...do you have any idea as to how many people would seriously kill you for those? I mean we would not think twice about forcing you into a dark alley and pulling them out and carefully placing them on out forehead! Hello?!
And did you say NO air conditioner? Wow! Brave soul! *sends a breeze Ches' way*
really!? i HATE my baby hair. it's a result of my hair breaking off after i dyed it waaaay back in high school. i dyed my hair on top of a perm and my hairline completely freaked out and never really recovered. i used to be really self conscious about it and i occasionally put a little setting gel on it to smooth it out, but i didn't this time around. that's partly why i never wear my hair back and always rock some bangs.
are her locs real or genie?

...I have little hair...on my head that is...Can you still teach out to do a twist, or did you already do one of those?

you mean how to maintain your roots? check out my hair confession's video. i retwist my roots in that one and i also retwist my roots in the bantu knots video

Im not sure. You ever heard of the super group Twiztid, they got their start from Insane Clown Posse, and have these cool ass Twists in their hair. Could you check for the video "We Don't Die" and look at them and see what I mean while I check your har confessions?
VikingJuggalo 2 years ago
oh i see what you mean. ps. that video was scary.
it'd be hard for me to do a tutorial for that style since i don't have loose hair, but basically they parted their hair into squares, secured with rubber bands and then probably added product to their hair to make it stick out. you could even use pipcleaners or another type of wire. the hair is basically separated into 2 pieces and twisted together and then secured w another rubber band. hope that makes sense.
chescaleigh 2 years ago
Actually it does, I didn't know the square part, the rubber hands I guessed. Im going to have to find out if they use products, most likely.
So the Juggalo's are scary? lol.

using a comb, make one long part from left to right, and then make smaller parts from front to back to make little squares.
ummm yes. they're wearing face paint and singing about serial killers. not my cup of tea. but to each his own!

Can you do some hair how-to's that work with locs and normal hair?
I dont have locs, but I really want to try some of your hair styles!
MedicatingPerfection 2 years ago
you don't need locs to do a majority of my hairstyles, including this one. the girl who originally did this style had braids, but there's no reason you couldn't do this with loose hair. most of the styles i do are inspired by loose hairstyles and i just adapt them to work with my hair ie. the suzanne bun, the victory rolls, the beehive. those aren't styles for locs, they're just regular hairstyles.
chescaleigh 2 years ago
and keep in mind, i'm not a professional hairstylist. so i know how to work on myself and that's pretty much it. youtube is FILLED with hairstyle tutorials for "normal" hair and not very many for locs which is why i started making videos in the first place. just search, they're out there i promise. best of luck!

That looks really simple. Hopefully I'll get to do that style one day. Thanks!

what if your hair isnt long enough to bring the two sides all the way to the back to tuck them under?

HUH FRAN, HUH?!

I really like this. How do you keep your dreads from looking frizzy? My locks have a constant halo around them.

thanks! my roots tend to get fuzzy, but i just recently retwisted them likeeee a week ago? other than that, i don't really do anything to them. i don't even palm roll! how long have you had your locs? that makes a difference as well. they tend to be fuzzier in the early stages and smooth out as they mature.

Ches,
Love the style...simple, fast and looks perfect for the summer. Gracis!
btw...had never noticed your baby hairs until tonight...do you have any idea as to how many people would seriously kill you for those? I mean we would not think twice about forcing you into a dark alley and pulling them out and carefully placing them on out forehead! Hello?!
And did you say NO air conditioner? Wow! Brave soul! *sends a breeze Ches' way*
Enjoy! ;-)

really!? i HATE my baby hair. it's a result of my hair breaking off after i dyed it waaaay back in high school. i dyed my hair on top of a perm and my hairline completely freaked out and never really recovered. i used to be really self conscious about it and i occasionally put a little setting gel on it to smooth it out, but i didn't this time around. that's partly why i never wear my hair back and always rock some bangs.
nope. no AC. welcome to new york!
