I have very fine slippery hair, will it dread?

Yep, your hair will dread, 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, but if you use the backcombing method with a good wax, you won't have many problems. Neglect, and twist and rip will not work well with this hair type.

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.

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.

I used relaxer on my hair can I dread it now?

Yes, actually your hair will dread easier because the hair has been damaged, so it will hold knots a lot easier. You can use any method and the dreads will lock up.

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

Twisting- if you hair is 2 inches or shorter, it will be hard to gather enough hair to actually twist it, I recommend going with the comb rubbing method, or waiting until your hair is longer. If your hair is 2.5-6 inches you will have no problem getting this method to give you great results.
