Thank you for the warm welcome, Iain (and the friend request~ what a way to make a girl feel welcome)!Will they really lose their twisty-ness? What a relief! Iain said:

Hey Welcome =)
yeah it seems they look alot more twisty at first, really just depends on how it was done, but they definitely shift around an lose the twisty(ness) lol

Thank You

Is this any better? Thank you so much for your help, by the way.Oh, another question, if you don't mind- will the roots adjust themselves as the dreads fully form? Some dreadlocks were done at funny angles, and it makes the hair all bumpy at the roots. I know that's probably a silly thing to worry about, but it looks awfully goofy. Perhaps I need to just stop worrying and let my hair do it's own thing? soaringeagle said:

Oh, I'm sorry! How silly of me, to completely forget to mention that. He did the "twist and rip" method... and I don't know if it's because of my hair texture or what, but they're very... twisty!If the picture is too bad of quality, I would be more than happy to take another in better lighting, if necessary. Thank you for the warm welcome, by the way~ soaringeagle said:

I, like many other unfortunate souls, was nearly taken in by the whole DreadHeadHQ nonsense. So completely ignorant was I that I thought the only other way to start dreads, other than by neglecting them, was by using a dread kit- and there were so many sites on the internet supporting this brand, so I hastily bought a kit. How blessed I was that I managed to find this forum before the kit arrived! Thank you, each and every one of you, for maintaining such an incredible and informative site- if it weren't for all that I've found here, my hair could be in a terrible state!As for now, however, it's done up in a multitude of baby locks that my boyfriend coaxed my hair into over a nine hour period. They look a little spiraled, but I figure that this is to be expected, due to the method used. I'm assuming that as they mature, they'll not be as noticably so, am I correct? Other than the affirmation (or disproval) of this, might there be any other advice- care tips, what to expect, etc.- that anyone would care to share with me? It would be greatly appreciated!Aside from that, I must mention that I'm happy to have found such a helpful (and truthful, after seeing what's out there and falling for it firsthand) community. I hope that someday I can be as helpful of a contributor to the dreadlock community!
