My dreads are organic, ie, they're not made. I stopped combing, brushing and conditioner and voila! First dread began forming 11 days later. There's heaps of information about dreads on the net, so make sure you're informed before you begin. Three pieces of advice I'd give you: 1.Remember that the first couple of years are the hardest. 2.You don't need wax, don't use it unless you really want to and then only sparingly. 3.Everyone's hair is different so what works for one person might not work for the next.<br /><br />Good luck! I hope you'll post pictures if you do decide to go ahead with it.<br /><br />Oh, one other thing: my dread journey has happened while I've been a journalist at a mainstream regional newspaper! Most places of employment will be fine as long as you tie your dreads up.Anne-Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05709958246227912639noreply@blogger.com
