i have a couple of dreads that are really thin,and i want to thicken them,will the crochet hook work on thiner dreads or are they better on thicker dreads?

[skillteacher]

This method should work great to thicken any dread. Try it just on one dread first to see how you like it.

whats the correct length to start dreading at? my bangs go all the way down to my lips and the top of my head that hair goes all the way down to my shoulders, is that long enough to start?

[skillteacher]

Long enough to form the knots that make the cylindrical shape and thickness you want your locs to grow out at. This method will form the knots to make dreads when the hair is at almost any length. It is up to the person and how long they want their dreads to start out at.

hi, a got a question, i did my dreadlock like a week ago, but you now that the hair its staring to growing and its normal hair, do i have to do the thing with the needle to the roots??thanks...if i write something wrong sorry i really dont know much english

[skillteacher]

Yes, as loose hairs come out, it is fine to pull them back into the dreadlock. Doing the roots with the crochet hook is good too. Just don't pull out the hair by getting too close to the scalp.

[bohemichelle]

@PHaze28 I can say from my own experience that it works with a small, 1,5 hook. =)
