hmm the only photos I have are from about 3 months afterwards. I'll post them once i figure out how though

I used the backcomb wax method, i know dont flame me about wax i know i know! anyway in the first pic my dreads had been done about 4 days in the second one i dont know how old they are i ttink about a month the last pic was taken just now at seven months i have a few pics of the in between stages i could put them up if u want but yeah so that my dreads atm :D i like the look of them i have 3 on the side which i have platted to make a nice big one :D

I have a few pictures up in my picture albums. I don't keep track of time unless I have to be some where, so I don't know the exact age of my dreadlocks.Notes:1. I started with twist and rip2. I have an old wool sweater that I have put on my pillow.

This is me today at 2 weeks in. This is just a combo of being at the beach with no combing or brushing and some t&r around my face.

Well I have some holes in my timeline but this is the T&R then neglect with minor t&r on the ends out of boredom or to show someone how I did it.

Right after T&R

One month..

2 months

My crazy loops and bumps..

in an updo taken a few minutes ago... I just dyed 4 of them two of them blonde and two of them black... just ask my roommate how knotty they are.. it was tough to get the dye to take evenly (don't worry rinsed very very very well and they held up perfectly)black was definitely easier than blonde but you can see the black one well in this pic :D
