I'm at three months tomorrow, so this as good a time as any to start a timeline. Before dreads I changed my hair alot with lots of cuts and colours
This is my hair in a bit of a mohawk (the sides are grown out)
And this is brown with blonde highlight (a few months before blueish green, which I don't have a pic of)
Then I rocked a fro for a little while as I gre my hair out, with dreads in the back of my mind
I started my dreads on January 24th with twist and rip, sitting in front of the tv and doing them absently. Finally finished in the wee hours of the 27th, because I stopped in the middle of all that to go to school lol. Here's what I ended up with
that was after the first wash because I washed em right away
I don't have many pics between week 1 and week 7 or in because I was HATING my hair, I was keeping it tied up all the time, and this is the only (pretty blurry) pic I have, from week 4. I also only have this because it was my friends birthday, a black and gold theme lol
Around week 6 i started to love my hair, because this is what started happening
Fun curly dreads!
Loops! Oh my!
I got so excited I put some deco in my hair
That is what they looked like at the end of two months
This is week 9 or 10
Four Month Update
Hit four months a few days ago and my locks are definitely becoming more defined. They are still very frizzy and messy but I like that. I did trim a few in the back because they are several inches longer and it looked awkward.
This is an individual one. They all more or less look like these, with a defined body and then crazy curls and loops at the end
