i dreaded today.....

thanks

im sure ill look better after they thicken up and fall down. ill keep em for now

 

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!! poor thing!!!


I told ya so.... this is what happens when you don't listen to Ed.

... I still love ya though.

 

HAHA! fer some reason that was fuckin hilarious...

 

Hang in there man. Take those bands out. Soak your hair in salt water twice a day.

They will tighten but it takes a little time. The beanie is a good idea. I say hang in there.

How quickly they tighten depends on the salt water and how tight you put them in.


Hang in there. They look fine for one days work. If you really put the work in there you should be kickin tight in less than a month.

Good luck

 

Thanks man, I read moonshyne's pm, and that was prolly the most helping thing Ive ever read about dreading....how much "dreads" should you have when you first start? i had atleast 10 or 11 i think..i dont remember, i didnt count, but i didnt think it was enough.




for everyone who's interested, i took that picture in my sig this morning, so there's my hair, for now......

 

Shaving your head drunk?!?!? That ought to be an olympic event.

 

man, just hang tight. they'll get better, trustme. mine looked kinda funky at first, too. it's just because they're not used to being dreaded together, like that. they're just all fussy and shit, because your hair isn't used to it. but once it gets used to it, they'll fall down and start to tighten.

this is why alot of people cut their dreads after only a couple months! they expect perfect, rounded tight dreads from day one. not gunna happen. dreads are work, man. dreads are a lifestyle, not a hairstyle. so hang in there, and they'll come around.

here's shots of my dreads on day 2, and now. so that you can see how it changes, with time.



here's a couple of days, maybe a week later. i don't remember...


and here's now. almost 2 years later.


see, shit gets better. i like how mine looked at first, as well, but you can definetly see they got much better. hang in there, bro!

peace

 

James is the master of the dreads.

 

Hey, man. You look HOT with dreads. And without dreads. Not many people can pull that off. I congratulate you!

 

daaaaaamn right!

(even though i don't even really do that much work to them. >.<)

 

Yeah... but they're still the shit

 

well, thanks man!!!!

 

James' dreads are the shit!


Aw, Chuck, you're still a sexy mother fucker!

 

wait whyd ya want to dread your hair again? i forgot.

 

damn James, your dreads were and are the shit...youve inspired me to try again soon

If you're talking to me (I'm assuming you are), thanks.

Thanks, you sweet bitch.

Cuz I want curly hair...but its too flat. Right now you can't even tell I had dreads in, it looks the same as before, its pretty depressing, its the worst kind of long hair you could possibly have.

 

how do dreads give you curly hair? wasnt your hair curly anyway?

why didnt you just get a perm if you wanted your hair curlier?

 

I want curly hair, but its not gonna happen, so I'm going to just go in an entirely different direction and get dreads. I don't want a perm....my sides are curly, but thats it. The top is very flat and light, and you can't do a thing with it, it falls back into place in no time.

 

I don't think I could stand having curly hair.

 

your hair is curly..unless you want an afro im pretty sure your hair is supposed to be flat at the top

 

I want curly hair like Jim morrison....thats not happening tho.
