I'm not sure about everyone else but it certainly looks to me in the pics without the bands that your hair has sectioned very well. The thing to remember is that hair dreads naturally so if you take away the bands you will see a bit of blending but as your hair grows the sections will hold better. Light T&R will help you with this.I understand you are anxious about taking the bands out but they will actually hinder your hair from dreading. Just let go and you'll feel better about the process

I didn't t&r my hair but wouldn't bands on the tips prevent him from doing it? Or at least make it very difficult. I would also think they would lead to very weak tips.Obviously you are right though in that if he wants to keep them in, lets work around that to help him out.Will- Have you outlined your cleaning regime? What products are you using? Paula said:
If you are adamant on keeping the rubber bands, at least take the ones on the roots out...those are the ones that will cause more problems...I don't recommend keeping the tips tied but I guess you could give those like a week or something..
