silly question: do dreads thicken? I have very fine hair so does that mean my dreads will be very fine? One of my hopes from dreading is that my dreads will give me a bit of volume to my hair. Its because it is fine that I think the twist come out. I am trying to twist and rip the sections of hair that have naturally separated, but it means they are quite thin.It is kind of nice when combined with the untwisted hair, but when I wash my hair, (i am waiting on the dread shampoo to come) many of the nots just slide on out.
About a week ago, I did a little twisting and ripping of larger sections, but when I looked in the mirror at the back of my head i had these big "holes" of scalp...yuk! So I took them on out, but perhaps I should just twist and rip part way down my hair and leave a section from scalp to dread of about 2-3 inches?
