New to the site, and sort of to Speed Cubing.

Okay so I am new here and I am already loving this site. One major question for me is, should I learn the 2 look methods first or should I just try to learn all 57 algorithms of OLL and the PLL algorithms?

start out with 2 Look, and you can progress to 1 look later.
And to clarify, 1 Look of each is 57 OLL algorithms and 21 PLL algs, not 57 total.
2 Look is 7 OLLs and 5 PLLs, and every one of those is included in the 1 look set, so learning 2 look hurts nothing.

Welcome to the site

EDIT: and when you do start heading for 1 look, i think everyone here will agree with me in recommending to learn PLL first, and then OLL.

I know the 1st look of OLL, so do I use the OLL algorithms under "All edges flipped correctly" in the OLL wiki to do the second look?

Yes, that is what you do. You can get just the 2-look cases here also.

I would make sure to go through all the available algorithms on the wiki to make sure you are using one that fits well with your style.

I'm liking badmephistos algorithms better for the 2LOLL.

I pretty much use them. I'd recommend just sticking with the first algorithm for blinker since it's much easier to learn. I still can't do the second one faster than the first one, though many other people can. If you are going to use the PDF for the 2-look PLL from the Badmephisto page, I would definitely switch the first two algorithms from CW Corner Cycle to the T-perm and the E-Perm to the Y-Perm. I would also switch the Z-Perm algorithm unless you are already good with M slices.
