Dreadlocks twist and rip method



Dreadlocks twist and rip method 


The twist and rip method to make dreadlocks is one of the most used methods, because it works on pretty much all type of hair and  it's also an almost all natural dreading method IF you don't use any dread wax with it. 
But you have to know that once it's done and the dreads have locked, it's almost impossible to unlock them.. So if you choose this method, you have to know that if you changed your mind about having dreadlocks you may most probably have to cut your hair.

How to do the twist and rip method on your dreads:
1- Sectioning your hair: it depends on how thick you want your dreads (between 1/4 inch to 1 inch in thickness recommanded). Just carefull that hairs from 1 section dont cross hairs from another at the roots. you can use rubber bands but make sure you remove every single one the next day.

2-Twist and rip
  •  twist the section then seperate the ends randomly in half
  • pull the two parts away from eachother to force knots towards the roots BUT don't be too forcefull or you may cause dammage.
  • keep retwisting and seperating and pulling
  • you may do some palm roll when you're done.
In this video you can see how the twist and rip method works with dreadlocks:

Dreadlocks - the best way to make them

Dreadlocks, most people don't know how they are made, if you search the net you'll find many ways to make them. but wich one is the best to have nice healthy dreadlocks??
There one thing you must remember about dreadlocks.. try to avoid any chemical product, dread wax is BAD for dreadlocks, or if it's not bad it wouldn't be good either, so it's better to just use a natural product-free way to have healthy nice dreadlocks.. I used like 3 ways and I strongly suggest twisting as it's shown on the video. Unfortunately it's short :( and not the best quality, but it shows you the way how things are done, so if you want healthy dreadlocks and hair, I recommand twisting.
I will try to make another more detailed video about making dreadlocks.. stay tuned
here is the video
