Thanks! They were backcombed. I palmrolled in the beginning but eventually stopped and just let them do their own thing.
They'll grow differently. Maybe a little smaller at first. If you want thick ones then let the smaller ones, when they form, to grow together....
Yes you can! I have very fine straight hair. My dreads are almost 9 months now and I like how they're coming along. Here's a pic: [IMG] That...
This made me laugh. :) So many people think that dreads are from being lazy and not the other way around. lol

Thanks luv. :) I know they're not all that short but I love the idea of having them longer. It's a bit vain, especially for me considering I'm...
When I was pregnant with my daughter (who is about to turn 6 on Saturday) I met a woman who had dreads. Her son and my son (they were 3 at the...
Hello everyone! I used to log onto this site all the time when I had my first set of dreads and I think I've been here a few times since. It's...
