Yoo,
It's been a while since i started thinking of getting dreadlocks. but i have got your ordnairy asian hair type. so i was wondering of anyone in here has dreadlocks and could provide me with some info, and maybe tell me the way you think about dreadlocks. I know i can get dreadlocks with my type of hair but since i have this type does that make it more difficult? how long does my hair need to be if i want to get some nice dreads? What's the best way with my type of hair to get dreads? and how long does is it take? a few months? (sorry about my english it's not that good) so please, tell me your end of the story or the way you think about people with dreadlocks.

1). Get yourself a teasing brush.
2). Separate your hair into sections. 3). Place rubber bands around the sections. 4). Use the teasing brush to backcomb each of these sections. ( make sure that you remove the rubber band before you start backcombing) 5). Start twisting.

LOL If you use wax during the dreading process your hair will NEVER lock up. So make sure that you don't do that. Do NOT ever use wax during the dreading process!

I heard from my friend Nicole that her cousin went to the store the other day and talked to her friend, who the day before called her momma, who talked to her goddaughter in Cali, who said her brother's best friend, who happens to be Korean, is telling people on an Asian discussion board called AsiaFinest, that he has friends who told them they have used hair wax to get dreadlocks and it worked out fine for them. Now seriously, I've had dreadlocks myself when I was 13. Had them for about 2 years. So I'm talking here from experience and not "my friend did this and that, I heard this and that " and what not.
