I improvise when cultivating locs with a variety of tools and techniques that all depend on the size, strength, health and length of the clients hair. I do not 2 strand twists or interlock to start dreads primarily because most my customers are looking for a more natural🍏 appearance that can be manifested from traditional palm rolling🪮.
Backcombing is an admixture of teasing/palm rolling fine straight or wavy hair that will not hold a curl pattern thus cannot be coiled.
Dreadlock specific shampoo is advisable to use as a loc detergent. My black soap seaweed shampoo leaves a healthy residue to build up the texture need to manicure locs when palmrolling.
Frequency: How often you shampoo your dreads depends on your hair type and lifestyle. Typically, once every 1-2 weeks is a good starting point, but you may need to adjust based on your hair's needs.

Starting Dreadlocks: Standard methods in cultivating your locs vary depending
- On the condition of your hair.
- How long or thick your hair already is.
- What I have to do to start or maintain them.
It all depends on what you present to me as a canvas. First, when you come in make sure your hair is style free, no braids, twists or hair accessories. Next I will shampoo your hair & then apply a series of modalities: coil twisting, backcombing & crocheting along with herbal infusions and essential oils. You have to have enough hair at the root to anchor for support of each loc. Your hair grows in natural sections of grafts that I use to lay down a template for your future dreadlocks. Your locs will go thru a variety of transitional stages. They will cocoon: swell, puff and sprout - in as little as a few days & with perpetual continuity.
Length to start:
- Ideally, you will need an 1"- 2" of hair if it is tight and kinky to start the process.
- 3"-5" inches if your hair is loose and curly.
- About 6 inches if your hair is straight and or wavy.
