I'm jelious of humming bird, Back in the day i thought he had big dreads. haha their big, but mine consumes all of the back-top of my head, left to right. 
at the roots for now, cant wait to see the dreaded in 20 years
Aww marlayna's dreads R.I.P
I love my messy hair. EVERYONE calls me the Lion because its exactly how my hair looks, short and puffy and im very happy with that nickname :P ras lion lol
If you already made the foundation of the dreads by yourself then at that stage you need tightening, so yes a tam would be good for your stage since you want compression now and you don't really need movement to make knotts, but i think the tam would help your stage more then any other stage of dreading

thats a fat dread
and i remember how hard it was to getr u to stop wearing that hat haha i thought id have to hire someone to follow u aropund and steal em everytime u put 1 on
i remember for months u kept saying youd stop wearing it and it took months b4 u finaly went 1 full day without it and u acted like that single act of going a day without a hat was such a major event in yur life lol
think ill feature this
So i started growing my hair when i was about 12 and dreaded when i was 14, I was addicted to wearing my hat though. for the first entire year of dreading i only had 2 immature dreads so on my 16th bday i had my friends jump me and remove all hats out of my grasp, That was on may 9th, its now aug 12 and i am fully dreaded ( not mature dreads but my hair is all immature dreaded )
I wanted to warn all of you natural dreadies to be aware of the hat effect it messed up some locks roots and now i got like 6 dreads on the top of my head sprouting out of one mat, idc but it upsets me the hat did damage to the natural process, Im still keeping my locks for eternity though :P
pic of 1 of 2 dreads after over one year of not dreading with a hat. ill post my dreads when i can take a pic
but i do got more hair on my left side then my right i think 
yep, unfortunately we all have different hair types. Neglect dosen't work for everyone no matter what people say.
