Dance?
General Talk
I danced on a dance team in middle school, and took regular dance classes two year in high school.I love to dance. When I dance, i always get drawn to the hip-hop, hardcore, crunk dancing. I learned many types taking the classes in school but these are what inspired me the most.

They don't look like true dreads at ALL in the picture she posted in her first post, it purely looks like twists held with gel/spray. Not dreads, only twists. They almost seem TOO uniform for dreads, y'know? Spider Feet said:
Looking at her other pics I'm guessing she did a twist and rip and then left them alone, twisting with hairgel and hairspray on occasion. They aren't fully locked. She has one in the back that looks natural and one that is starting to get a little bumpy but to me they just seem like they aren't fully dreaded.

Lynsey: after I got rid of my dreads, I was still attached. I knew they wouldn't work for me, so what I did was I went out, got some synthetic hair, and make false dreads out of them. They have a little loop on the end so that you can brain them into your real hair, and secure with a bandIf you want to learn more about it, send me a comment or PM, and I can help you out. That way, you can have some temporary dreads to see if they work for you.
tapered vs. blunt ends on girls
General Questions
truth: I prefer tapered ends because i'm petrified of having "short" hair, and I know you lose some length when you dread. Not too much, but some, and it irks me to no end. I leave the ends as long as they can be.I had a traumatic experience as a young, chubby kid with a short haircut. I'm sure you can imagine the teasing:P Now i'm like...anti-short for a vast majority of people. I really prefer length, as it represents beauty to me.
