    I had dreads a while back and i took them out cause i didnt like how dirty they looked, i just ran into my friend at school for the first time since last year, and her dreads are really nice and clean and little, and i know she didnt go to a salon.. how do i get them that way?

    u said they were "little" do you mean short, or thin or both.

    Im just curious because that would help to maybe determine how her dreads are as you say "clean" perhaps her hair was naturally natty and knotts quicker or as ryan said maybe she uses wax, or alot of tea tree oil.

    hey! why don't you ask your friend how she did it, we can only guess ... she'll know best! *just a thought*

    My dreads are thin.... and it's kind of a bitch cuz they don't seem to matt as well. Also, the bigger dreads on my head are doing really good where as the smaller ones are having trouble
