Hello dreaded friends,

I have just started my dread journey, and am in the midst of knotting my hair bit by bit. As of right now I have 4 dreads, and will be adding more over the next couple weeks until my entire head is done.

My question is this: I've been weaving/encircling wool around my dreads as I finish them. My thought is that this can only be good for them: the wool will increase friction, sort of like wearing a wool tam; as well as holding them together and making them look nice & colourful. Am I wrong here? If I'm not wrong, why don't I see more people doing a similar thing?
