Loose hair tool for thin dreadlocks
How to use the loose hair tool (or the Latch hook) for thin dreadlocks maintenance.
I have already posted an article about how to use the Dreadlocks loose hair tool here, but if you wanted to try this maintenance method on thin dreads you wouldn't be able to, especially if you are using a big sized hook. Because it would be hard to get the hook all inside the dread. so it is better if you try doing it this way (see video below)
It is the same procedure, except that instead of getting all the loose hair inside the dread, you keep getting it in and out untill it fits in
I must remind you though that this tool I am using in the video and in the previous one is not the dreadlocks loose hair tool that you could find in dreadhead hq or Dr dreads or any other dreadlocks related shop. This is just a latch hook that is why the tip of it is different, and that is why it is a little bit big in size, it shouldn't be used for very thin dreads.
There are other issues you need to be aware of while using a dreadlocks loose hair tool, a crochet hook or any other maintenance tool:
1)- It is very normal to have loose hair before your dread mature, there is nothing to panic about
2)- Do NOT use any maintenance tool unless you really have to, using tools on your dreads all the time may create holes and might do some damages.
3)- While using any tool on your dreadlocks, use it gently, do not pull hard, to not be violent to your dreads.
4)- Be patient, make peace with the fluffy frizzy loose hair around your dreadlocks, it is normal to have loose hair all the time that will eventually end up locking itself.
I hope that this Dreadlocks maintenance post was helpful to you.. More coming soon, stay tuned
Peace And Love
