My name's Lauralyn from the Braiding Lounge Academy., I'm about to show you how to start a lock on fairly short hair okay., So I'm going to be doing it with the crochet hook: method.. Okay, when forming a lock, you want to take your section of hair.. The first thing I do is I roll back and forth on the end of the section of hair.. What you're actually looking for is to start some kind of a know in the bottom of the hair.. Dreadlocks is all about loose hair, broken hair and knots okay.. So once I've done that, I'm going to take my latch hook and I'm going to put in to this section of hair and I'm going to wrap it around and bring it through like so., That's from right to left., You don't have to go up and down. The main key of using this tool is of forming a dreadlock. This way is you never go up and down twice in a row or from left to right to right to left twice in a row.. You also need to try not to go through the same hole that you've gone through before okay., So you continue to go in and out up and down in and out and up and down, and what you'll find is the lock will begin to fall and this Method would take you all the way up to the base of the lock all the way to the scalp.. So I'm going to continue on up and down right to left up and down.. You can see that it's not off the lock. There'S no longer that bottom. Here it's actually getting closer up to the root, so I'm going to carry on.. This is probably a couple more turns in there, because what you want to do is get the lock as close to the base, as you can without it, causing discomfort to your client. Okay., So, as you can see, that lock has been formed right up to the base.. This will be a fine piece of short hair, so it can be done and that lock is now permanent.. It will not unravel it will not come out and if you want to put a little form on it, you're quite welcome to just palm roll it in between your hand, as we've shown before, and you begin to get the roll in there okay.. So there you have an instant dreadlock, that's with the latch hook method. And there, as you can see, we've just formed a latch hook, dreadlock on to a short hair, with a latch hook tool and with the latch hook, method.
Comments
Karen Woodruff: INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much for demonstrating this technique!
victoriakapshaw: Thanks to this video I was able to start dreadlocs on my husband hair for the first time properly yesterday. We tried almost all the mthods until now with the latchhook.He went to a "professional" who twisted his ahir, but since he has such short,curly hair in the back and around his edges from his shape up days,his hair always pulls out very easily.Then i tried braidlocs and rubberbands at the ends.That failed.The only thing i did different was kinda twist his hair before i latchhooked it.
Conscious Soul Thinker: Omg thank you so much. The first latch hook video that I was able to copy and understand. You're a life saver

Odean Lawrence: Hi thanks so much for your help with the latch hook or crochet hook as you call it; infact i have had this tool for sooo many years since i was a teenager; i actually bought for some arts n craft project i was making, which was a carpet rug picture of a tiger! lol then i put on your video and saw this amazing way i could use this tool! Well, i gave it a go and it worked beautifully! This is the first time in years i have been able to hold my locks in place due to my fly-away hair. Thank you.
Ingrid Williams: Thanks so much! I have some new growth that won't fit into existing locs...was wondering if I could interloc them...now I can..Bless!
Castormofotroy 86: Thanks for the video. Getting my hair twisted to do
The smolest Cunj: If you have 2 inches long hair and put in dread extensions (human hair) will it grow out as dreads. Like while the roots also form. So if you maintain would it be “instant dreads”
daila305: I am curious can you start dreads like this from scratch? Not for me, I want to start dreads on clients.
AKIYIAKELLY: great video.. Thx!
Tru1Tru: im so scared to try doing my own, all I keep envisioning is the hook getting stuck in my hair. I am so looking for a new Loctician to help me maintain my locs, it's been super hard getting in touch with the lady i've been going to for the past year. ;(
Nasheka Medley: Thanks for the video!
Lady Truth: I liked this very much. I was lost in her accent. Just beautiful.
