Skip Luc not saying that she can't get it, but the reason why white people aren't meant to get dreadlocks is because their hair produces too much oil which causes mold inside of the dreadlocks unlike African American people because their hair is designed for kinky hair styles like dreadlocs because it is thick and it naturally mattes up and creates locks on its own when not home or brushed for an amount of time

OK let's me make this clear first I am a black woman and I'm not considering getting dreads I just ran across this video and personally its OK but some of the comments shows just how ignorant the world really is for one anyone should be able to wear whatever whenever wherever they please as long as its appropriate and as a black person I know how it feels to be treated differently because of skin color but I can say that I never played the race card what's right is right and what's wrong is wrong no matter what the situation or who u are so what I'm saying all that to say is that a lot of the time we bring it on ourselves because we start at them expecting them not to say anything back and its not fare besides although racism still exist a lot of u are still mad because of what our ancestors went through and what their ancestors done that u are taking it out on them and a lot of whites don't agree with racism and a lot of u haven't been in a racist situation yet so u don't even know how it feels but until you do black people stop playing the race card about everything and give other races a chance to live without us breathing down their necks about something a lot I mean a lot of them don't believe in and a lot of us hasn't faced I love all of you

"black people" & "white people" are descriptions ignorant people use, to be clear these are used to loosely (seeing as how no one is really black nor white) describe someone based on the color of their skin. Not all "black people" & "white people" are american, and you usually only hear Americans use these terms. "black people" did not invent dreads or braids. let that sink in a moment . 1. You don't invent a hairstyle. you create one. Human beings creativity can be very very similar to one another. That's why alot of people wear the same fashions at the same time developing trends. 2. Many cultures (rainbow of skin colors based on whether your melanin happens to be spread apart or closer together, many or few) wore dreads and braids since the beginning of time. yes, a little exaggeration before someone replies and points that out. Vikings is an example of "white people" that used both hair styles. 3. "black" Americans just because more "black" people wear dreads/braids does not mean you tell a girl that only wants a specific hair style bc she LIKES it , she can't wear it that way because she has "white" skin aka RACISM. That would be equivalent to saying if you have darker skin your not allowed to relax your hair to have straighter less kinky hair, or to wear extensions/wigs for the same reasons or to gain length and you can't wear you hair like that because majority of "whites" have straighter , longer hair. ridiculous . "black" americans, did you know that slavery in America ended 1863 (which wasn't that long ago honestly) and that so many different races were also slaves Irish,French, Indians (India),Italians ,Russian and many many more. millions of slavish people ("whites") were slaves for centuries by Africans ("blacks") ."black Africans" enslaved many millions of people's from different races.oh no you mean "black" people did enslaving too? you don't say..Actually alot of races did back in less civilized eras bc they basically lived prey and predator lifestyle and felt the need to conquer what they thought were lesser people's. slavery has been around since the start of civilization. YES it is TRUE that most slaves were sold into slavery by "black" Africans that were not slaves. until people got greedy and said hey why pay when I can steal what is not mine to take. My ancestors were slaves maybe their master was "black" or maybe not. if you scroll through the comments their disgusting, racist, ignorant and hateful . with alot of misinformation being spread because people are blinded by a hatred. "black" Americans it is great knowledge to know about your ancestors. I'm going to reiterate that YOUR ANSCESTORS most don't know if their ancestor was a slave if they originated in Africa etc. so there's this blinding hatred bc of an era in America that you did not experience and are blaming others ancestral offspring that had nothing to do with these choices, that can't help what a ignorant generation did long ago. We need to stop spreading misinformation and hate breeds ignorance and gets passed down generation to generation. everything that is not my sarcasm is true, factual , based on real events so do not try to debate with me. I wrote all this bc of all the hypocrisy and racism I was seeing. and I was always told it was "white Americans" that are racist. and I'm constantly saying Americans because I've only ever seen Americans say and act this way about slavery and racism. We all need to move forward or we won't get anywhere as a society. if we don't band together in these rough times we will be crushed as the government and "superior classes" ruin us. and before this gets commented yes I've experienced racism maybe not persecuted every day but I've dealt with alot of prejudice from many different angles mainly from black Americans.I've got turned down for jobs bc they get tax credits for more minorities, I got kids to feed also. I've been called white bitch so many times it's not funny and yes in a certain context that's racist to me. I used to get jumped in school 2-3 times a week bc my boyfriend was a "black" American so I was stealing him from others of his own color , which I just didn't understand at all when I was younger. because I have white skin color it's okay for me to be a domestic violence victim. my bestfriend since I was 10 is black her mother unofficially adopted me when there was no where else for me to go except another foster home I wouldn't be the person I am today if it wasn't for her and racism is one thing she taught me to speak out against and to speak up for. because even my bestfriend had to go through persecution from her own "people" bc she was very light skin and dated a "white boy" that she ended up having s child with and is still with him after 11 years . and many other petty things. point being is racism is very much alive on all ends if we quit bashing each other maybe there's some hope for us as a nation if anyone should be pissed it should be the Indians rise up and kick us all out of your country ! All this bc a Danish white girl wanted to wear her hair a certain way.

If you can't stand being on top of things, having everything go you way, and can't take a bad hair day.... don't get dreads. Dreadlocks are a form of self expression. Your dreads form themselves and are completely natural, but society shows us otherwise. Will you conform to these expectations of what a human should look like, or let your own body speak for itself. That's a question all dread heads must ask themselves. In the result, you may see people with dreaded and nondreaded hair and all kinds of dreads coming together. Or a person with dreads so tight and with no loose hair, that their dreads seem to be 'perfect'. So choose now, and ask who you are as a person before you choose to let go or grasp onto your crown/hair.

Reasons why dreadlocks are not good for everyone. If you are white and you wash your hair often (you know cause non ethnic hair gets oil fast) you will grow mold in your dreads. Also accumulation of flakes of your scalp from not brushing is also something to consider. It is actually really hard to keep it clean since "locking" often times will have and keep dirt and other undesirable factors in. The food industry and certain jobs also might not consider you just because of these factors. There is also something else to consider as well, if you are looking for a new hair style when you have dreads you are going to need to cut all your hair off, at least if you don't properly brush it out or untangle it (if you even can).

For friends who are black ;) If you're black it doesn't take much more time for them to dry than as a loose natural. a bit but not a lot longer (I HATED this is a cold climate but living somewhere warmer it's not as issue)...and the velcro and earring things aren't new. lol and the questions from white people don't really change again from having black hair. I think for me too...thinking about the time it takes for them to be nicer looking...depending on your style and technique and hair texture it can take years for them to mature. ;)

1. The question "how long did that take?" is the most common!!!! and the weirdest question too. like I usually telll them ive had my hair like this for 3 years. but they want to know how long it took to start them. dreadlocks are never done maturing or growing so I think thats a very stupid question. 2. sometimes your not in the mood to talk about your hair 24/7 it gets very annoying. 3. anytime you post any picture of your outfit or makeup people want to know about your hair instead :/ 4. dreadlocks take longer to wash, although you do not wash them as much (maybe once week or once every other week) 5. people assume your gross or your hair is gross. 6. working out or doing yoga can sometimes be hard with locs because even when your hair is put up in a bun its a bit heavy and in the way, also sometimes if you wear your hair the same way like in a side bun it will make your neck hurt after a day. thats all I could think of as far as the cons. there are plenty of pros too!

You'll know them as they mature and you'll love them in any aspect. Trust me.

A lot of you complained about how society is so racist, and how cultures/races hate each others, but when somebody doesnt give a fuck about it and tries new things like mixing "white culture + indian culture" or "white culture + black culture", is culture appropriation? I mean, y'all want equality but when somebody mixes races as something equal, y'all get annoyed. and sorry if you don't understand this, I don't speak english but its the universal language so I tried lol

I think one of the most annoying things is dread maintenance in the early stages. My hair grows extremely fast so within the first month I had 1.5" of new hair growth that was matting together. To professionally maintain your dreads your looking at $50 per hour or more & it's a bit difficult to maintain a full head of dreads by yourself.

I am not considering getting them, but after having them for so long, maybe you are thinking of making a change? Maybe you worry that you'll lose subscribers. I started watching your channel because I was interested in removing them. Then I kept watching because I found your videos interesting, not because of your hair. You know how you see some older people who have the same hairdo they did when they were young? I can't imagine that is you. Bottom line: Some people will stop watching if you remove them. But others might subscribe to see the transformation -- and stay, like have. 💐

it's not that white ppl SHOULDN'T get dreads. it's that they don't NEED dreads bc the problems u have w the way ur hair responds to dreads is COMPLETELY different from the way our hair responds. Dreads are pretty or whatever but they were rlly made to protect and grown fragile, course, black hair and you may be like "it's pretty, I can do wat I want." But it's not pure style and it's still now made for ur hair. Letting the cultural crap go; you do look a bit silly having those in your head w no purpose other than a look.

Actually it depends. Many non-black cultures have kept locks, including hers (She Dutch, which are descdents of the people commonly refered to as "Vikings"). And while there is no denying the blatant differences between the most common hair textures, that does not invalidate why they are done. People do many things to themselves for MANY reasons that can be considered harmful. Tattoos, piercings, scarification, consuming poisons, etc. Its all done for various reasons, ues including fashion (my grandma always told me it hurts to be beautiful). She most likely keeps them for fashion, but many people in her culture keep them for religious reasons as well (My husband being a member of a religion that historically had them, some people now choosing to keep them as a sign of devotion to the ancestors.)

If were talking about qording, no, Vikings didnt have dreads in their culture because Dreads are the Rastafarian name for locked hair kept as a devotion to Jah. The northern peoples kept locks due to many reasons, one being that they were often easier to care for as the majority were farmers and they could be kept out of the way, held tightly even if they got diet or mud on them, and didn't need to be rebraided constantly like braids. They werent amazingly common, no. But they were present. They also probably werent entire heads of locks like people today either, but random locks mixed in to hair that didnt keep because, as said, finer hair is harder to lock up. Neo-pagans that follow northern religions now sometimes lock their hair as a devotion to their worship of their ancestors, as they might have kept locks so the emulate that. Its a form of religious practice (though less common than hair length and braiding, which is what my husband does in devotion). I dont see much difference in keeping them for Jah and keeping them for the ancestors, but I can see where others might.

Hey Elise! :) Nice video! I really wanted a dreadlocks, so I started with synthetic dreads just for try. But I realised that I miss my "free" hair and their brushing as you mentioned at first reason and I got rid of them :D After time, I wanted dreadlocks again.. Sooo, I decided for my OWN dreads and I went to hairdresser. She made me my first three dreads and I was so excited! :) After time, I started with making dreads to myself. Right now, I have 19 beautiful dreads.. For me, this is DREADLOCK JOURNEY, if I feel to make next one, I will do that.. Gradually :) And what I don't like? When I sleep and I lay on my dreads and I want to turn.. It hurts

Wellll, where I live, dreadlocks are a form of identification for Rastafarians. Just to make it clear though, not everyone with dreads is a Rastafarian but every Rastafarian has dreads. In class, we had a discussion once about whether or not wearing dreads were offensive to Rastafarians because we don't practise their religion but here we are, wearing dreadlocks, which are an indicator of their religion. Since we couldn't decide on an answer, the conclusion was that in order to determine whether wearing dreads when you do not practise the Rastafarian faith was offensive to Rastafarians was simply to ask them.

I think a very important thing to consider is that in the beginning dreadlocks (especially short ones like mine) can look awful. They are not mature, the roots and the tips dread the slowest, there's loose hair everywhere so it is not the nicest thing to see on your head. Of course there is the crochet hook, but then again, it is very time consuming to crochet your hair every second day because you want it perfect. After a while as the dreads mature there is no need to maintain it so often, but in the beginning if you're too self-concious (of course why would you get dreads if you were self-concious), or still in school (like me) it can be pretty awful. Keep it clean and it will dread faster, but patience is key here. Great video, Elise, keep it up :D

I have very ethnic hair, as I am half Cherokee and a quarter Jewish. When my hair needs to be cut, it dreads very easily, and it is so hard for me to brush it out. My hair is very thick and it's getting to be an issue. I brush it out and it knots right back up. I'm to the point where if I don't get some help with brushing it out properly, I'm going to have my friend brush it and dread it. my hair is almost to my waist and I am really stressed. Brushing my hair takes at least 3 hours when it dreads!! this video was really helpful....

I had dreadlocks for 3 years and had to sadly cut them off because of an allergic reaction I had to a shampoo. another thing to keep in mind is with dreadlocks, some people will be more prone to things like dandruff, psoriasis or even some forms of scalp infections due to the change in environment on your head. so you'll need to be knowledgeable of how to take care of your dreads and scalp correctly knowing that dreads are more time consuming and tedious then undreaded hair.
