My name is Jessica and I am an oil painter. I WANT dreads but my hair is THIS short. . .I want to do them SOON but dont want it to look bad if I start them too short. . any suggestions?? THANKS !
Start now just stop brushing, wear wolly hats and put a wolly jumper over your pillow. Stop conditioning and use a residue free shampoo. By the time you consider your hair to be long enough you will already have dreads Welcome anyway :cheers2:
Hey, First post on hipforums, eep. I'm Tobias, i live in the southwest, uk, 6'2", brown eyes, Leo with the mane to match. currently perpetually unemployed...... I enjoy music, sunlight, wind, rain and lightning. i formulate my own peaceful philosophy and i like to always keep my mind open, but not so open my brain falls out. You may think i'm away with the faeries from what i've written so far, Lmao... I don't believe in a god/gods, but i'd like to be able to. Anyway, i enjoy ingesting plants with psychotropic properties on occasion, growing said plants, star wars, trust and friendship, contrasts, photography and travel(astral planes and aeroplanes). I'm currently about 6 weeks in to "neglect" dreads. Read the dread FAQ, got my dr B. minus a little ripping/pulling apart near the scalp i'm leaving it to do what it wants. After four+ years of washing my hair too much and combing religiously I just didn't want to do it any more. chucked the comb and concentrated on my scalp. my hair is very ringlet-y so has formed pretty definitive sections already. also hair is about 18-24" long(when straight!), tapered and lighter(sunbleached) towards tips so should make for some pretty interesting dreads. blurt over, apologies for length and tangents Peace, forever and everyone

Hello I am Lindsey and i'm an alco--wait... I'm a dreadhead I think I've posted in this forum before, a long long time ago. I stopped brushing my hair in October of 2007. I tried backcombing but got sick of it, only got about half my head so some formed quicker than others. Um... no wax. This forum was a huge inspiration to start dreading. I enjoy being outside and music and cats and things. I'm a student of life and a wage slave. Um that is it I think/
Back from a looonnngggg hiatus, forgot my old log in name and such so Im back with a new name. Just starting the process, only a few months of letting my hair grow...Cant wait for this journey. I can feel this deep in my soul! Much love to everyone.
There's no way I'm going to get through reading this whole thread so I'll just jump in and introduce myself. I'm Kareena. I'm in Western Australia and I'm a stay at home mother of two. I've had dreads for about 8 months now and I love them. They were started via the "Sista System" at the Weird Sistas dread bunker in Fremantle (basically, a gentle weaving method) and they're coming along quite nicely IMO.
New member, natural dreads...I prefer calling them natural rather than neglect. I've been going on for four months from a shaved head... No recent pictures, sorry.
