I want dreads but I never had them before and I was wondering how do I get them and how long does my hair have to be for at least short dreads. Basicly how do I get dreads.
just dnt comb your hair in a while.
there just basically nots in your hair from not brushing, so if your hairs lng enough to not then you can get dreads.
i think there sort of dirty to have but cuuuute at the same time.
i think that dreads look rlly cool and i’ve just recently decided that i want them, but i don’t know the processes to do it. i didn’t mean to sound bad when i said a white guy, i just don’t know if there are any differences to get dreads due to the type of hair. mine is about 3 or 4 inches right now and when it’s starting to curl, when it gets long it gets rlly curly and i wanted to try out dreads to see if that look fits me. any advice would help lol

Watch that video and other videos of him. I have read you other questions, and you mentioned that you are a red head. So is this guy in the video! It would be the perfect guide for you!
Anyways you could also search You Tube for more dread lock tutorials.
So a dread lock is basically a huge tangle. If you just stopped brushing your hair your hair would naturally form dreadlocks. If you want to control exactly where you get them I would suggest you do it your self. Or go to a salon if you wish. What you do is section a part of your hair, as big as you want the dread to be, and roll it. Now take a brush and back brush it. Like brush upwards from tip to root. Then roll between your hands.
This will make the hair tangle and "lock" to one another, thus making a dread lock. Repeat this section by section and that’s it. In the videos people say that at first it will look messy but as time goes by the dreads will become more defined and look better.
This style is a little high maintenance; I would not recommend it. But if you are willing to put up with it then ok.
If you want to see what you would look like I suppose you could always photoshop dreads onto a picture of yourself. Or go to a costume shop and try on a wig.
Good luck.
U need to do them urself and they are not "dreads". they are just locks. u wll appreciate their beauty if u do them urself.
