I have had dreads for 3 years, my hair started out huge and light and as time went on my dreads tightened and formed into what they are now, the tighter they got the shorter they got. i love my dreadys but i want some length and my patience has seemed to escape me. I tried tying in synthetics but they just felt awkward thin and light against my heavy thicker dreads and i couldn't wash them! does anyone have any suggestions to make my hair longer/bigger? Any salons or treatments? Thanks friends!
