Hey guys. Stopping in to introduce myself

So yesterday I finally decided to go ahead and finally start dreading. I decided to go with the backcombing method without wax or anything. They are really messy right now but Im totally fine with that. They will lock up eventually. I tried to backcomb rather gently as to not damage my hair but for the most part I think it went pretty well. From here Im just going to let nature take its course and see what happens. Let me know what you guys think. Im really excited to finally start this journey.

no Im not worried about it in the least. Its more of a shock going from perfect and well kept hair into a mess. Im really looking forward to seeing the changes my hair will go through.

i guess i was lucky being 200 miles from the nearest mirror when i let mine dread

I like your beggining dreads, they dont look very messy, is this neglect?

probably so but really Im going to enjoy watching the process happen. soaringeagle said:

thanks man. No they are backcombed but they came out looking like neglect so I guess it worked well lol Michael Hein said:

easy enough. When I backcombed, I purposefully tried to make them messy because it eventually loosens up a bit. So it was really more of a jumpstart than anything.

lol..these aren't that messy, just poofy...you want mess? wait a couple of moths when they're all loopy and zig zag-y ... But you'll learn to love them as they grow :D

hey and welcome now all you have to do is nothing :p kind of!
