I have very fine slippery hair, will it dread?

Yep, your hair will dread, but not with the neglect method, you will probably want to use the backcombing method because you will have the best results. The hair might slip out a little, if you don't backcomb the dreads tight enough, so make sure you do, and make sure you put rubber bands at the tips.

I have really thick hair, will it be hard to get it to dread?

There are two types of thick hair

1. Thick strands- usually Asian people have this kind of hair, it is harder for this kind of hair to actually lock up, you will have a lot of trouble getting this hair type to dread without any help, but if you use the backcombing method with a good wax, you won't have many problems.

2. Lots of hair- people who have curly have usually have lots of it. The stands are usually thin or normal size, and the dread great. A person with this hair will have no problems getting dreads, with any method.

Is it hard for curly hair to dread?

Not at all, curly hair is the only hair type that I would say will work with the neglect method.

If I have curly hair will I have curly dreads?

They may curl a little when they are new, but if you palm roll them a lot they will straighten out in about a month.

What should I expect when I start my dreads with short hair?

Neglect
There's not much to expect with this method and short hair, it will happen when it happens, but it will take longer for the short hair to knot than it will for longer hair. You should probably wait until your hair is longer before you go neglect.
