Backcombing is how you start them but they are natural once growing and tightening. It does'nt really matter how you started them , dreads is dreads man.
mine.... dead straight, i braid it before bed so its wavy in the morning, a few random baby dreads in the back. red colour... naturally brown. i would like to die it dark blonde. peace and love
Long, pretty straight. I comb it and use some sort of cream, which is more for hydratation and stengthening of the hair than for styling. It's combed in a parting to the left of the middle.
i used to have long hair just like Tom Petty has, then i went bald like Maynard James Keenan. then i realized i liked long hair better so i am on my way back to the Tom cut.
my hair used to be down to my ass, but i cut it last year...:/. i'm growing it to my freakin' FEET this time. as for now, though, it's longer on the sides than in the back. it just got to the point where i can do pigtails, and i intend to do pigatils and my bandana for quite some time! i REALLY want dreads, though, when its long enough. dreads with colorful wooden beads in 'em, not the "slipknot fan" dreads, as i like to call them!lol. kudos to everyone on here with the different hairstyles! i love variety<3
Right now my hair is dyed hot pink with purple stripes but I don't have any pics yet. This photo is about a year old... I'm a little tanner thankfully ha ha, but back then it was magenta and blues and purples... it's kinda dark here I know but yeah, it was schweet lookin!
keep it about like that, give or take a few inches. don't really do much to it, shower, towel dry, hat, sleep repeat.
