i just want mine to grow! although ive discovered i quite like wearing fake hair over the top of them..
The more you wait the more it will shrink when you dread, and then you will wait all over again. If you start sooner and have short, mature locks, it will begin growing again sooner and you'll have long dreads faster.
I waited til my hair was maybe 6 inches to start, but i say the sooner the better. for some reason i'm not really getting shrinkage.. all growth here at 1 yr 4 months *shrug*
Yeah I wish mine was a little longer, even thought I just got it trimmed. So I will just let it grow and go natural. Maybe I will get backcombed, but it seems natural is pretty easy as well.
Had major shrinkage until 18months in then my hair started growing. It's growing so fast it'll be touching my arse come Christmas
I think after being parentally whipped and pussywhipped to cut your hair, you're going to do awesome at neglect
Same. Well I think it's gotten a bit longer. Maybe 2 inches? So wait 2 years and your dreadlols will ggrrooww ^^
I am glad I started dreading at the length I did because I like the length and hopefully it stays that way for a while.
i remember wanting my hair to grow as if it was yesterday, including wanting my short dreadlets to grow. now a few years later theyre half way down my back and down to my arse if i push my head back...to me its kinda the length that i dont enjoy that much, i'd want them to be either shorter or alot longer.
^this i neglected from when my hair was like an inch long and they were tight as hell and gaining length about 6 to a year later.
