The next technique we're going to do is a two- strand twist with hair added. We do that
for people maybe their hair isn't as long as they want it to be to start their dread
locks, or maybe they want it to be a little fuller or they don't want as much maintenance
as it would take to have to come and get this down every two weeks when they need maintenance.
So what we can do in that case is we can add the *** hair to the two-strand twist so
it can a fuller more lock look right away. So here's a different technique for doing
a two-strand twist with hair added. I'm going to continue that c-shaping. I also want to
note that whenever you're doing your partings, you want to go all the way across first then
on the next row you want to make the same c-shaping but you want it to stop right in
the middle of the one below it, so that your dread locks will be perfectly aligned and
it won't be spaces in between them. See, so you'll put the next one right there. Then
you'll put the next one right here that fall right in between the one under it. So what
we're going to do is we're going to add the *** twist hair and you can buy this from
any, well not any but lot's of beauty supplies. This is *** human hair. That's just like
our hair here and perfect for creating dread locks. First thing what you want to do is
separate the hair into two sections, just like before. You want to twist the hair in
both sections and then you want to wrap them the other direction. So the technique is to
twist and then wrap. Twist then wrap, twist wrap and what this does is it helps the hair
to wrap itself around each other. It kind of entangles it in there so it doesn't come
down. You'll see how much thicker that lock is than the ones we did without it. This will
lock much quicker. It will be a little more stable and steady looking. It would have a
more consistent look all the way down because we added the hair to add a little bit thickness
and then you want to go all the way to the ends. Remembering to smooth with the fingers.
O.K? and then probably you can trim that little part off right there and then you, there you
have a two strand with hair added.
