    dude, check out my pics from the beginning if you're worried. they will work themselves out in the next few months. patience is the most important thing in this process.plus, photographing dark hair is a bitch!

    They look fine. They are going to dread together really quick so make sure you keep the section separated if you don't want massive congos.

    I got a congo of three dreads in my first month. It really shows how much my hair has grown in 10 months.

    they look great and it dont matter how loose ya backcombed or if ya did at all u have great hair for goin natural..
    (which it looks pretty much like thats what your doin since it barely looked backcombed except in the 1st pic)
    definately seperate em often
    use lil sea salt sprays now and then and just let em dso theyre thing

    Good job, they look great. Just like mine did when I started a couple of weeks ago. And yeah, don't bother to rebackcomb, I spent ages retwisting mine that fell out and there wasn't much point, they all fell out again :) just let them do their own thing. The salt water spray works great.

    Looking good dude, you definitely suit dreads! From now patience is the key. It's like a marriage, stick with them for better and for worse. It'll be worth it.
    good luck

    theyre lookin great =D

    dont bother re-backcombing, it wont do anything
    most of the knots (espesh by the ends) will come out
    youll get a tonne of loose hair..

    its all good =D
