Dreading Methods
my friend really wants to start dreadlocks within the next 2 months, and since i've had mine for over 3 years now, she has asked me to help...the only problem is that i used the backcombing method, and ive come to learn how damaging it really is...i want her to have the healthiest locs possible, and i know she doesnt want to go the neglect route, so im very interested about the twist and rip method...i think she would be a good candidate for it, but i have some concerns..she has thick, super striaght hair and i was wondering how effective this method is for her hair type...she has already begun the process of using residue free shampoos and staying away from harmful products so i know her hair will be ready, but will twisting and ripping really make her hair knot up? i also know that she wants to have i guess what would be called well maintained locs, so what can be done to the loose hairs on the locs? really trying to stay away from crochet hooks and all that...anyone who has used the twist and rip method or has any advice on it, i would greatly appreciate it:)
