wow girl!!they're looking so beatiful already!I m sure once they start getting more mature they will be stunning;)

They look great! And their gunna stay awesome because your hair is so long already. Can't wait to see how they turn out <3

aww thank you so much everyone!! i'm reallly liking them a lot and already feeling so much relief in not having to worry about my hair all the time. it's awesome.oh, i also dreaded that charm into my hair. i'm not sure if anyone has any experience with doing that(?) or if it was a bad idea or not, but hahaha i think it looks pretty cool. it's a lion charm with a leo symbol!

They look great, and with all that long hair it's gonna lock up easily

Nice!! You did a great job with the TnR! I'm sure they'll hold up pretty good. But if they do unravel a little don't worry, they will knot up on their own

yeah some of the dreads i have under there are about a month old (you can't really see them in these pictures). i even experimented with crotcheting and interlocking on them before i knew any better. a couple look like shit, but the rest actually haven't unravelled much at all. one of them started eating surrounded undreaded hair and i had a few issues getting it out of there which created some huge ugly loops that i hated at first, but within a few days the loops got all hard and solid. it's actually a pretty cool looking dread. i should add picture of it later.

Man.. we all think that we want perfect dreads, but the loopiest most crooked always ends up being the favorite :D JESSICA EVA said:

You have a very sultry beauty about you, the long hair, deep eyes, round face, full lips, very 1940's in my opinion. I'm really excited to see how you look with more mature dreads, they look great now, but I know they'll knot up quickly and look amazing on you.kthnxbye
