Ripped* two* with*

they can till u get the technique down better

tips
twist once rip 10 times betweeen twists
tip 2 every seperation and rip devide the sections differently ripping in diferent directions makje it very random so like 10% in 1 hand 90 the other next rip 75-25 next 40-60 just dont do it in 1/2 every time on the same angle

also i hear b4 u retwist u should let go, let it fall out straight then regather it and retwist it


and when its dont it dont matter if it looks braided as long as it holds together in a couple weeks it will be dreaded not braided

absolutely! here is one of my dreads at 1 month, and then another dread that was 3 months. in time the loose hairs lay down on top of the twisty part. they end up wrapping around and pulling loops and bubbles back into the dread. my dreads are 5 months old now and look totally untwisty for the most part. they will also get WAY fatter. so don't worry if they look thin. the 3 month old dread in the picture is at least twce the size in now. as long as it's not going to unwind and come undone, you're good. most of mine were twisty looking, and i never ever had any come loose on me so i wouldn't worry about correcting your technique.

Awesome jessica! My tnr dreads are only about 3 weeks old, and I knew that they would look less woven as time went on, but that pic is a great illustration of the change! Thank you! :D
