So I now have baby dreads with human hair extensions and am going through the lovely baby dread process. I kept them up in a cap while I SCUBA'd last week, though they got loose on a night dive and I STUFFED them into the cap, causing them all to tangle at the bottom so badly I had to rip them apart. (And hour of detangling didn't budge them they were so tightly matted, so I now have a "Papa Dread" that has like five tails at the bottom!) I haven't been having major problems with the seams between the real dreads and the extensions, but I will be glad when they mature and become one permanent lock. I am just starting the maturation level where they begin to loop... Anyone else gone through the dreading process? (As opposed to having synthetic dreads--I had synthetics in high school, but those are a breeze to maintain. These suckers are teaching me a new meaning of "patience"! Hopefully it pays out in the end with lovely, ropey dreads.) I would love to hear your dreadhead experiences!
