Brand New Dreads

Yesterday I spent 5 hours back combing my hair into dread locks.I read quite a few discussions here and a lot of people say to do nothing and stuffBut I want my dreads to look nice, I don't wanna look like a homeless person for 7 months before they actually start to look good.So I was wondering what techniques can I do to keep my dreads looking nice, but also help them lock up faster?

Well I have anti-residue shampoo to wash them. Also, what do I do with the ends? I got about an inch of un dreaded hair at the tips.

Okay so just palm roll? No wax in the hair or a lil bit of wax? Which will help them look the nicest (and i mean look good now, not look like shit for a year then look good)

wax will make them look good in the trash after you cut them offwax is pure evilpalm rollings useless it does nothingwear a hat or tie em back till they dread up niceleave the ends alone if you blunt em thet dry soooooo much slower u probly will get moldthe least u do the better

The least I do the better? But I go to school and I can't wear a hat or anything in school, how long will it take for my dreads to look good by doing nothing?

Why not get dreadlock extensions? Is that what you are after? Then you won't look like a "homeless person" heaven forbid that. You of all people. Imagine that. Phew lucky you've got a home aye

Sorry man, there really is no way to make them look *good* . Only ur opinion matters ne way, if u think u look good, then u do =D. i looked homeless for a long time if ne one gives u shit just crack them an its all good
