no dio not even consider gertting them professionaly done!
ok ill give u loads of opros and cons especialy to going to a professional
pros
dreads are easy to care foor feel amazing build confidence and self worth they empower and enlighten and change your outlook on life
cons to professional dreads
1 huge expence and effort
constant need to maintain (with more expenxse)
99% chance they will do a horible job all the worse things u can ever do to dreads were done by so called professiinals
youur hair is its own professional it knows how to dread itself
working in the wilderness is a great way to dread as dreads are natural
pro/con dreads do act as a filter in a way most ppl admire and respect dreads and find them beautiful but theresa percentage thart have the oposite reaction abnd often loudly
its a pro/com cause tho u get some ppl that way they are typicaly the ppl u dont want round ya anyway
pro it will dread itself needing no or almost no maintenance and be beautiful on anyone (theres a minumum recomended idf you dont want huge dreads thats all)
pro sleeping on em u dont really sleep on a pu=ile of dreads but ..they make a great pillow in the wilderness
con mugwort and other stickery tyle weeds bushes etc might be very attracted to you and try to come home with you
pro same happens with guys/gals u find livin in the wilderness (the concrete 1 too)
cons back to the c onds of salons
they use wax (eww) or crochet (ouch) or worse perms interlocking ..rubber..(1 freind hasd her "dreads" coated in liquid latex by a salon)
this craps not goona help u dread at all but will make u need an appointment every 2 weeks to add more an d more harm so u start off paying like 700 then 50X2 ior 4 a month and always need more work done cause your forcing it to look like creads while not letting it be dreads or dread itself
1 guy we heaed about spend 14,000 dollars on his dreads and thety were all falling off
pros (of not going to a salon)
easy easy easy
easy best way lose your comb in the wilderness (better yet leave it home ..recycle it) let it dread done
next best twist and rip art home easy to do gentle effective looks good from tge start
takes several hours but when done u just leave em alone
simple free pain free (natural) or low pain (tnr should be pain free if u do it if u have help u might get a few hard tugs)
pro
yopu will love it and feel more like you tgen u ever have b4
