crochet dreads painful picture warning

They do get thicker if you leave them alone and stop crocheting, mine shrunk a lot and got almost twice as thick as they were. I think the problem is that they don't have the patience to wait until they get thicker in time, they want instant "perfect" dreads.

Yeah it looks like from here, the most popular method and I can attest it was indeed painful sleeping on them afterwards.

Once you crochet, you're going to crochet the rest of your entire dreading journey. @_@

This picture looks like it was done in the Philippines. Most dreadheads here have their locks done by crochet hook and/or wax. So far I haven't met another person here who has freeform dreads (aside from the other Filipinos on this forum).

well you can kick the habbit but it is like heroin after the 1st dose it gets u "hooked" (pun intended) and your stuck looking for your next "fix" (again intended)
