Hello everyone!So I'm pretty sure that every part of the head dreads in different speed, but I have like maybe like 10 or 12 dreads in tact only on top of my head. And it looks pretty silly lol.How soon do you think my hair start dreading on the sides and nape area? My hair is probably like 3.5 inches all over.I am so tempted to tnr the sides and nape, but I am not going to.Thanks everyone :)

It definitely is. I need to keep myself busy and forget about my hair so I can stay sane haha.

Your hair's probably just a bit too short to dread properly yet, for those ones, so just got to wait. Twist & rip wouldn't even work really, cos it'd just come apart and you'd be back to square one. The hair on the nape and sides dreads the slowest anyway (in my opinion). The back of my head dreaded the fastest, cos of when I slept, yet I have new hair on the very nape on my neck that still hasn't dreaded, just cos it's just a delicate area of hair, if that makes sense. Patience :)

Thanks! I'm just gonna stop thinking about it, and let them do what they want to do.

Yeah, I have longer hair and I TnRed and the roots initially got loose up to 3" so, I can see it being a pointless gesture with hair that long. :P

If you are feeling like it's a little too crazy you can always make it fun by clipping a butterfly or something in there. :D
