Firstly Welcome!Twist n Rip was easier to do myself than backcombing. And alot less painful. Plus better I'm told for your hair in the long run.Just remember no Wax!!

yea use twist and rip backcomb tends to be inefective damages the hair permenatnly and looks goofy for weeks

twist and rip holds together better (generaly) looks better is easier much more gentle and less harmful

all around better method

and no wax no wax no wax

well as for the health of my hair im not too worried about cause im suppose to bald early so i figured id have fun with my hair while i have it, but as for backcombing like ive backcombed a bout 15-18 dreads so far and have 23 to go but some just arent getting tight likei have kinda thin smooth hair do i need a finer backcombing comb?
