Welcome to Stefanodreadlocks channel !
Today we will learn how to make a natural dreadlock with crochet in few minutes, without wax, cream or any chemicals.
All you need is: a very fine crochet, a tail comb, grippers and elastics to tie the hair.
Roots: First you need to take the lock and divide it with precision from the surrounding hair,
according to the desired shape: it is very important to be precise and exclude with the tail-comb
all the hair that does not belong to the root and it is critical that the form
of the root is regular.
Backcombing: Once you have divided the lock you have to backcomb it, combing firmly several times towards the root,
to create a regular tangle of hair from the root to the tip.
It's important to give enough strenght to the lock so that the dreadlock does not open
but do not overdo! Or your dreadlock is gonna be too hard and mostly too short!!!
Crochetting:
After backcombing we must tighten the lock with our hook to turn it into a real dreadlock!
To do this, starting from the root, as much as possible below
we go with the crochet in and around the stray, tightening and closing it.
We go ahed crochetting downward to the tip once the dreadlock is getting formed ..
if necessary repeat the back-combing. Warning! DO NOT crochet too much a new dread on the root!
the skin can irritate and sometimes the hair can rip off!!!!
With this video I showed you how is easy to make with the hook
a clean natural dreadlock and in few minutes, so I recommend not to use any other method, and especially to avoid
any type of wax or glue cream! For more information visit www.stefanodreadlocks.com
