Combine

I think im gonna combine all my dreads until i got 9-10 massive ones. i realized i am more into really fat dread, even if they are less numbered.

 

Noooooooooooo! lol, your dreads look fkn awesome... your choice. so long as ur happy with em.

 

i have some really thin dreads on the front of my head, i have combined many of them, but still i find them not fat enough. So maybe i`m gonna go for it

 

Your dreads are really great the way they are, but why not go for it? Fatties are awesome too! btw, how long have you had yours greengirl?

 

agreed. i think they look nice the way they are. never really seen a person with 10 fat dreads though, be sure to post pics if you do decide to combine them 8)

 

I'd say go for it. I had loads of tiny dreads and I wasn't happy with them so I combined them wth another one halving the amount of dreads I had. Theres photos on my profile in one of the albums showing what my dreads were like before the combo and after xx

 

i lovvvvvvvvvvvve fat dreads
go for it lol
i'll probably do the same

 

I'm thinking at least 20-24 fatties and call it goods there but by all means go for 9-10 and post up progress if you're heart is set to it. Good luck!!

 

yeah good luck with that

 

Yea, I think you've got pretty sweet dreads as is, then again I think just about all dreads regardless of size, length etc... are nice. I've got some decent size dreads, some congos that seem to at time join hands with other dreads and they seem to just combine naturally....what are you gonna do to combine them if they are already formed?

 

ive let a whole loyya monre combine recentlyt but i had 250 now im problyt closer to 100 or less
just to give ya a lll info.. noit to ddiscourage you but 9-10 dreads would mean they'd get 4-6 inches thick at the scalp..theere will be practicly no way to get your fingers under enm to scrub off andy dandruff
also..they will be far more susceptible yo moisture relayted issues like old and harder to clean..
i know people with even fewer fatties or monodreads but i just have a feeling it'kll be alot harder to keep em clean and itch free..even though none of mine are over an incvh and 1/2 thick the thicker ones have the worse scalp issues at the bases
i only let mine combine because having so many meant constantly being tangled in dreads and having too many to keep track of and out from under feet and stuiff
but i have let as many as 5 or 6 thinner ones combine
and there really is no tricxk to it, just seperate em less over a feww months..since june ive only ripped maybe 4 thaT WERE COMBINING WITH SOIME I DIDNT WANT EM TO..ITHER THEN THAT I JUST LEFT AM ALONE AND GOT MAYBE A DOZEN CONGOS..IM SYILL HOPING FOR A FEW MORE OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS BUT NOT TOO MANY
\damn caps i really should watch what im typing more otftrn..lol

 

really?
what if you had fat dreads but not so fat that it's 9-10
would it still be that problem?

 

i have 24, they are pretty fat but they aren't gianormous

 

that's REALLY fat.... and i love your dreads the way they are greengirl! they're hot.

but seriously, do what you want. i combined mine in 2s and 3s after i had them for 3 months, and then i ended up ripping them back apart 6 months later, damaging them in the process. i liked the thicker dreads for a while, but then it just turned out to not fit me and my style. but whatever works for you! i think i had 30 or so when they were all combined.

 

come to think of it, really thick dreads would be much harder to dry. the core could remain moist and lead to mold

 

don't be scarin' me! lol

 

how do you get rid of mold if that happens to form in your dreads?

 

i don't now, but i would assume bleach, right? bleach kills mold

 

haha sorry about that, just giving my two-cents worth

 

that's scary, mold in dreads
