haha thanks soaringeagle....im just letting their ignorance get to my head again i guess...thanks again lol

thanks man...yeah ive already read the FAQ, ive just had some people question the loops and everything

well its been three and a half months since i started dreading...and ive got loops lots and lots of BIG loops...am i supposed to leave the loops in or pull them out?....also my hair just doesnt look like its in dreads or any where close...any advice would help....pics attached...plz look at all 3

Wow that does look great for a week and a half. Who is the lady in the pic?

There are timelines with pics to see other people's progress at various stages. Everyone's hair is very different but after a few weeks I had good progress and after 2 months I had significant progress.

i know exactly how loong it will take theres a complicated formula thats very technical and requires exact measurements (jonny clean would love it)1st you need to measure the length of the hair in inches, then the diameter of a single hair devide the diameter by lengthtake that number multiply by the average number of hairs in a 1 inch circle of the scalpnext is a more complicated measurement, measuring relative curliness 1st measure the hair pulled perfectly straight, next measure the lengths changes due to moisture and weather conditions to get an average loss of length due to curl (average is 1/2 of the distance between longest and shortest) multiply that by 7 and devide by the previos valuenow this value you get multiply by the mumber of times in a month you wash your hairsubtract 1/2 your ageif your hairs oily add 7if dry subtract 3if you own a watch callander or mirror add 27if not..good for you do nothingnow if the number you have is 3 digits add the 3 together if 2 subtract the 2..if 1 go back to school and forget about dreadsadd the numder of years it takes to complete school, subtract the number of grades u needed to completenow convert the new number to months, but not the number of months from now instead 1 for jenuary 2 feb etcif the month is before your next borthday add 3 and convert again, if after flip a coin if heads theen use your birthday, if tails use the other monththis date is then your comparison date..the date that you can look in the mirror and compare the results to the actual datenow the extremely complicated formula for determining the actual time it takes to show progresslook in mirror see progreess? if yes ask someone the date if no wait a week and repeatso was the actual date before the comparison date? if yes give yourself a cookie..if no..give a homeless dude a cookieand no im not stoned

well it depends on the hair, but mine showed progress right away, then slowed down a bit, but im in the 4th month now and the last few weeks it really started to show a change for the better, here is my timeline if you want to take a look http://www.dreadlockssite.com/forum/topics/my-natural-timeline-updatednow#axzz0zdzDd8jO
