how i'm gonna start my dreads...

well no i accept that it won't "look good"
it's just that i thoguht i couldn't finish tonight and well.. having only half a head of premature dreads seems a bit too funny to go to school in ^_^;;

ah but it's okay now! i just finished em

Heres my suggestion even if you still think a little wax is still a good thing, as I did (flashesback) take a little bit of wax and just put it into your normal hair, just a little spot like a clump of hair that you would make into a dread, and if your happy with the way it feels go for it, but i can guarantee that once its in there you will swear off wax forever

 

For my friends dreads, we just spent a saturday at his house. Watched some movies, he supplied the ganj, and i worked for about 4 and a half hours. They turned out great. Make sure the person doing the dreads knows what they are doing though.

 

i don't know if i have any friends that im willing to trust to snag up my loose hairs and stuff.. i let my friend give me a dread once, and oh dear god. then there was the friend that did my whole head in dreads.. hers came out bangin, mine were like.. oh dear god.

 

how many hours does it take to do dreads? and should i get wax or not?

 

dreads dont take hours dont even think that, if u mean backcomb it depends on your hair, hours at least
but dreads take months at least
and hell no..no wax ever

 

Apparently is a secret and very natural thing to use, if like me you refuse to use wax and want them to look natural, lemon juice is good for starting the locking process and rolling with lemon juice will make frizz lie flat temporarily at least for a day, lemon juice smells nice too
