The whole thing was that when I went to bali I saw most peeps with crotchet or backcombed, it was just that crotched looked alot neater (Though didn't really look like locks, but did look neater)So thanksMike

how do you know they are healthy and strong? ppl ive seen with crochet dreads that have been through years of crochet say a lil pulling on them and u can hear a ripping sound

so i wonder how you know how healthy and strong they are? with crochet they could have fallen off manmy times and been reattached without any visual signs they had

oh man that vid was sketchy! That guy actually said it broke because he didn't crochet that one area! lols! Knotty her dreads sound awesome. Regardless if we would use the same method they sound cool, red dreads are awesome, I almost never see really long red dreads, definitly a rarity! :o)

rawsum said some pretty insulting thingsto natural woman then left..it was silly

most of my friends have crochet dreads and I can pull on them without them breaking off. Most of the people I know crochet them fairly regularly, and still have perfectly strong dreads. Maybe not as strong as natural ones, but they don't need to pull a bus with them so they don't care. Thay just like how it looks better.

I know a guy that has to croche his dreads for about 12 houres a week (not even a year old yet) and all the dreads around the side are about 1/4 the size they were because the hair has become so damaged and brittle. all thats holding his dreads together is the shitty wax hes been covering them with.

never use a hook for a few reasons

1 - dreads become extremely weak in spots that yoy croche

2 - it can cause your dreads to be holding on by strands of hair and the gunk that you have to stick in it to make them not fall out as much

3 - you need to keep crocheing or the hairs keep falling out making an even bigger mess than they were last time you croched them

4 - cavemen didnt use croche hooks

im also not a fan of back combing either

1 - friction damages your hair

2 - they look too puffy for a long time (not good if you need to look semi respectable at work etc)

3 - most people today associate back combing with waxing/crocheing due to johny clean (who shal now be known as wank stain) to make the new dreads look maturer

4 - cavemen didnt use combs

yeah, basicly if cavemen didnt need to use hooks or combs for kickassed dreads why do we? just use ur hands some patience and some sea water

or..dont use youyr hands dont do nothing

wank stain haha

I heard someone say on klocks that they used to crochet for 8-12 hours a day!! It can become an addiction for some people, constantly maintaining which causes more loose hairs leading to more crochet maintenance. I'm sure that was an extreme case but you can easily see how you could go around in circles with it if it's done all the time...
