HELP! Straight hairr!

I really want dreads but of course I'm in the unfortunate situation of having straight blond hair. I have a lot of hair. it's just not curly. Is it possible for me to have sick ass dreads with such sorry hair?

 

Yes. /thread.

 

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:



That pic was taken about a week ago. They still have a ways to go but I like how they're coming.

My hair was dead straight, and my dreads formed perfectly fine.

 

my hair was also poker straight. hair knots, read the stickies

 

yup, it's even possible to go neglect with straight hair

 

I'm neglecting most of my head. I have pin straight, super fine blonde hair

 

*sigh of relief* I just didn't want to try and start something that wasn't going to happen, but thanks to all of you I think I am ready to start knotting up. Thanks guys! :]. I'll be sure to post pictures once I get things going. How long did it take your dread to fully mature? Did you run into any problems? And would you guys recommend bronners or baking soda?

 

these are lovely - didn't catch how you started them?

 

I would always recommend bronners. Just make sure you dilute.

And I also have really straight hair, it dreaded up fine.

 

Thanks! They were backcombed. I palmrolled in the beginning but eventually stopped and just let them do their own thing.
