Hairdresser Reacts To Dreadlock Removal Videos

As a black woman who has had her locs since 2019, I would just cut my hair all off and grow it back.The cosmetologist and certified natural hair specialist in me is screaming make a detangling mix! Water will shrink the hair back if you detangle with it alone. I have removed several of my clients locs in hours, not DAYS, HOURS with a mix that is mostly oil based. It is required to give slip to the hair and aid in detangling.

My son had dreads for 8 years, they were down to his waist. He couldn't rest well at night anymore and would wake up with a knot in his neck. I told him to stop dreading the new growth, otherwise I'd have to almost shave his head. 3 months later we cut them off , he felt so much better he said he felt like he was floating. The dreads weighed 8.3 lbs. Great video Brad, love ya 💓

As a African American female and licensed cosmetologist it’s better for ethnic hair with locs to use conditioner to detangle from experience and it helps with the breakage on the ends of the hair ❤❤❤❤ much love brad

From a loctician.- THANK YOU, BRAD! "The most meticulous thing you can possibly do in the realm of hair." Was the most validating comment I've heard in my 5 years of work. You made my whole year. 🥰

my friend had dreadlocks for a few years and when the time came to get rid of them she just couldn’t do this. i think she unpicked two or three before she just said f it and cut them all off and shaved her head lol. fair play to the people who have the patience for this cos i know i would not!

Depends on your hair tripe for kinky curly hair conditioner really does help since our hair is naturally more dry and removing it dry it more likely to break it than doing it wet. Plus the conditioner helps loosen up the hair and actually avoids breakage and that’s why it was easier for her to removing the hair

That first transformation was INSANE! I did not expect her hair to look like that afterwards! Kudos to anyone doing this. I would've just shaved my head and grow it out from scratch. Edit: sorry, I just had to comment on the last girl's hair. That is GORGEOUS!! I actually had a classmate in college do that. He was a drummer and had chest-length dreads. One day he just came to school and he had chopped it all off! Def looked a lot healthier. We were all in shock haha.

Mr. Brad Mondo, I am always impressed with how respectful you are with your commentary and descriptions. That’s everything! 👏🏽 Whoever raised you raised you right! Your character and spirit is a GIFT!

I love Christina Randall!! Her locks removal was a journey for her and her fans, and she does sooo many different cute hairstyles now❤

I JUST finished combing out my locs yesterday morning. It took me about sixteen days. But I didn’t do it consistently each day. It. Was. Mind boggling how much hair came out. But my hair is so thick and healthy. No regrets!

As a black girl, my hair breaks easier when theres no form of moisture. What the last girl did was pretty smart, as always different race different hair, different do's and don't for certain things Edit: some of yall really trying to be smart. No two races have the same hair texture, not even those apart of the same race has the same texture. So yes for the major part race affects how your hair grows, the texture, and the practices you apply to taking care of it, whether it be tradition, culture, or something you learn from wherever else.

OMG! I've watched Christina for years! She has several channels but i mainly watch her true crime channel! She had a very rough & tragic childhood, speant years in prison & completely turned her life around! As a former addict myself with 9 years clean, she is an inspiration & one of the most real, down to earth people on YouTube! She's awesome!

As a naturally curly girl, I envy everyone who can run their hands through their hair whenever they want. I can only do that when it’s wet, or {I almost never do this} after a couple hours of straightening, but only till it gets wet again ☹️

Christina's hair now is so gorgeous and healthy, I love seeing it in her videos after her removal.

My niece who is a hairdresser, is a dreadlock detangler expert. She has the patience of a saint and loves Brad's videos.

FYI…Locs require a DETOX…because yes…like Brad mentioned, it’s like “dirt” “debris” so it’ll accumulate..which will require getting a monthly detox or every two months..it’s definitely preventable if you take proper care.

I had dreads for 5 years. It took me about two months to comb them out. My hair afterwards was past my butt. I chopped it to just below my shoulders. I miss them sometimes. But my neck and back do not lol

The curls of the first girl are Sooo gorgeous! It suits her perfectly 😨😍

I will say that adding water and conditioner is more recommended for black and textured hair. Even finer 3b types will benefit from the slip of the conditioner. the issue of elasticity from water causing snapping may still be a consideration for chemically treated black hair but typically, coarser hair and the tighter curl patterns will break more from going in dry and pulling without any slip to loosen the curls from being joined together so tightly.

I had locks for 7ish years. I had around 80 in my hair. It took me forever and a day to take them out. My husband helped me. I miss them so much, but I don’t regret taking them out. Edit: this video was super satisfying. They all looked so beautiful with and without the locks.
