Hey all! I am officially starting a thread timeline. 
Hooray!
I started my dreads Dec 1st, 2010 using a combination of backcombing and crochet. Personally, I think I gave my dreads a head start by creating the knots with the hook, and since I only crocheted to put them in, my dreads are now naturalizing normally. Currently the only maintenance I do is separating the roots. Also, in case anyone is curious, I have 80 dreads!!! Holy cow! I used 1" sections, but I have seriously the most hair I've ever seen anyone have.
Before: I don't have a great picture as I just deleted my Facebook (LIBERATION. DO IT.), but it was extremely thick (hair elastics only wrapped around my ponytail twice, most people wrap it 3 or 4 times, I hear.) wavy normally/curly in humidity and overall, actually very pretty.
EDIT:
2 months! Also, some really crazy loops on the back of my head. 
Crazy loops!
