I would go natural but i have a job that wont allow that. Whats the difference between backcombing and twist and rip?

Getting Dreadlocks TOMORROW !

Introduce Yourself

Hey everyone, im new to the Dreadlock forums, and to dreadlocks in some kind of way.

I've been doing my research on dreadlocks for just about 1 year and 7 months.. This is the same exact time ive been growing my hair out for. My hair is finally about 7-9 inches and i have very straight hair.. its somewhat thick, but still very straight and smooth. I've been using Dr Bronner's magic soap for the last week or so just to get ready for the backcombing and dreading. i have done enough research and know enough to NOT use wax. I have braided my hair so when i un-braid it, it will be easier to backcomb and dread as it is already wavy and curly. I'm very new to having dreads and it will be my first time starting tomorrow (:

Any ideas or tips you may have for me, please feel free to let me know.

Hope you guys get to know me, i love meeting new people (:
