I have loose hair on the tips of my dreads, is there any way I can dread it?

The best thing to do is roll the tip of the dread in the palm of your hand. This will make nice little round tips. I rolled my tips for three months and now they are round and really nice.

Dreads do get fatter with time, because the hair that would have fallen out, builds up inside the dread. This is what makes the dreads become hard after a while. But if you want really big dreads and you haven't started them yet it's easy to make them fat, just make bigger sections. And it's pretty easy to make the bigger if the dreads are only about two months old or younger, just rubber band them together and palm roll them as much as you can. But once they are hard it's really hard to connect them, you can still rubber band them together, but you take a chance of having folds or creases in your dreads.

There are a couple methods for tightening roots

1. Crocheting- this really shouldn't be used for tightening roots, you should only use it to get rid of loose loops. But what you do is stick the dread through the loop and pull it through; it's kind of like sewing.

2. Clockwise Rubbing- In my opinion this is the best way to tighten roots, what you do is, rub the dread against your scalp in a clockwise motion. It has done wonders for my dreads.

Use the clockwise rubbing method. Rub the dread against your scalp in a clockwise motion.
