I started my dreads in....the beginning of April I think.... Eh I dont know but theyre 2 Months now. They've started to tighten up like crazy and new ones are popping out everywhere. They were done with backcombing once and NOTHING ELSE. At 2 Months Shroom Dread! Dreads has been quite a journey, even if it hasn't even been that long... But I now care less about what other people think about me ..and my hair.. And I realize that you can't try to make things happen, you just have to let them happen. Like dreads. http://s231.photobucket.com/albums/ee181/spookytheferret/ Me Photbucket. Happy Dreading
