    They look awesome. They're going to tighten up good and proper. How long was your hair before you backcombed?

    Thanks ezy
    My hair was about twice the length
    My wife really backcombed them tight as anything and then spent about four hours with the anti frizz tool weaving the ends back into the dreads to get the nice roundy ends.
    Now she just has to spend about ten minutes a day weaving in any loose ends and keeping them looking neat.
    I am going to leave it as long as possible before I wash them to give them a chance to tighten up a bit
    I very rarly wash my hair anyway so no change there then
