Are you considering getting dreadlocks? Are you totally freaked out about how to make dreadlocks?  Well let me ease your mind.  Let me show you how to make dreadlocks instantly.  Starting your dreads does not have to be a complicated procedure like some people make it seem.  I know from experience when I put the first dreadlock in my son’s hair that it’s not complicated.  However, you must know what you’re doing or what you’re getting  into.

There are actually five ways to dreadlock your hair.  They are:

1.  Backcombing Method
2.  Gel and waxing Method
3.  Twist and Rip Method
4.  Natural Method
5.  Latchhook or Interlocking Method.

With the Latchhook or Interlocking method you will instantly dreadlock your hair, and avoid using gel, and wax (which ends up damaging your locks), etc.  You will never even have to use gel to retwist your growing locks ever again.   You can start one dreadlock at a time with the Latchhook Method without ever having to use gel, backcombing, beeswax, etc.  This method is instant.  You don’t have to wait 6-8 months for your hair to actually lock up.  This is one of the best ways to start and maintain dreadlocks today.

What’s really awesome about this method is that any hair type can be instantly locked with this method.  It doesn’t matter whether your hair is permed, you’re Caucasian, Chineese, Black, etc, you can use this method to lock your hair instantly.  You can start your locks with this method yourself, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

If you go to a loctitian that specializes in the Latchhook method it can cost you anywhere from $500, and even up to $1000 just to get the dreds started.  Once your hair is done, you can then maintain them on your own. Remember, not all loctitians specialize in this method.  Some are not familiar with it.  So make sure you find the right loctitian before getting started.

With the latchhook method you take your time, one dreadlock at a time, using a special tool, like the Nappylocs dreadlock tool, The Latchhook Crochet Needle tool, a twisted bobby pin, etc.  For example, What you’re doing is actually threading the Nappylocs tool with your hair and sewing your hair.
The Nappyloc tool actually looks like an oversized needle.  To actually lock the hair, you would section the hair, and then the hair is actually woven from the tip all the way to the root.  So what you’re actually doing is sort of braiding the hair backwards.

You can actually do this with your fingers and then after you reach close to the root of the hair, then you use the Nappyloc, Latchhook crocheting tool, etc to tighten the root.  You can use this method with dreadlocks of different sizes.  It can be a long, tedious start using this method, but when it’s done, what you’ll have are stronger, instant locks without damaging beeswax, and gooey gel that ends up leaving residue buildup overtime.

You don’t have to retwist your locks often, and you can wash your hair right after you’re done without worrying about the locks getting undone.  You’ve just learned how to make dreadlocks instantly and never have to suffer through the long lockup journey. This is what I call, “The New Age of Dreadlocks!”
