How do white boys put dreads in their hair?

You will need:

Dread Wax

Residue Free Shampoo

Metal Comb

Rubberbands

I recommend the DreadHead Supa Dupa Dread Kit:It has everything you need and they guarantee your hair will dread.

1. Wash your hair with a residue free shampoo and let it air dry.

2. Section your hair into sections that are 1 inch by 1 inch. You can use

rubberbands to hold the sections while you section the rest of your hair.

3. Start in the back of your head, remove the rubberbands and start teasing the

hair towards your scalp. Only backcomb about a half inch of hair at a time,

this will keep your dreads from forming loops.

4. Once you have finished backcombing the that section of hair, put a

rubberband on the tip and one on the root. Add about an M%26amp;M's worth of wax

to the dreadlock and palm roll it.

5. Do this to all the sections of hair.

Twist and Rip

You will need:

Dread Wax

Residue Free Shampoo

Rubberbands

I recommend the DreadHead Wax and Shampoo.

1. Section your hair into sections that are 1 inch by 1 inch. You can use

rubberbands to hold the sections while you section the rest of your hair.

2. When your washing your hair rub your head in a clockwise motion.

3. Once you get out of the shower and your hair is dry pull your hair apart in the

sections where the rubberbands are.

4. After you have pulled apart the sections add a M%26amp;M's worth of wax to each

dread and palm roll.

Rubberbands

clips to hold the sections while you section the rest of your hair.

3. After you have sectioned off all of your hair, take one section down at a time

and twist it, then put some wax on the twist and keep twisting until it the twist is

twisting down into a ball on your head,

Neglect

You do not need any products for this method. But if you use products your hair will dread faster.

Dread Wax (optional)

If you use products I recommend the DreadHead Wax and Shampoo.

This is the real do it yourself no maintenance method. All you do is nothing. Maybe wash and wax your hair, just let your hair do what it's going to do and one day you should have dreads.

Dread Perm

You will need:

Dread Wax

Residue Free Shampoo

I recommend the DreadHead Wax and Shampoo for maintaining Dread Perms.

You have to go into a salon to make dreadlocks with this method. They will put a chemical on your hair that will pretty much ruin your hair so it will be in a state that will dread really easily.

Loomed Dreads

You will need:

Dread Wax

Synthetic Hair

I recommend the DreadHead Wax.

You have to go to a salon or hair store to get synthetic hair, you or your stylist can dread the hair using the backcombing method. Then just clip the synthetic dreads on your hair.

Yes, you can wash your dreadlocks. You should wash your dreadlocks at least once a week, but most people wash every three days.

What should I wash my dreadlocks with?

You should only wash your dreadlocks in a shampoo that leaves no residue behind. Some people say that you don't have to use a shampoo that removes residues or doesn't leave any residues behind, but most of the time, their dreadlocks look terrible and the shampoo is to blame. I recommend DreadHead residue free shampoo.

Shave his head and get him a wig if it's that bad.

Dreads not only look stupid, they are hard to put in and impossible to keep clean.

How do white boys put dreads in their hair?

u should probably have a hair stylist do it. they can do it best. n i don't think u technically wash dreads. i think not washing the hair is part of the growing routine. ask a stylist where u love they can tell you all about it.

How do white boys put dreads in their hair?

dont just braid it and not wash his hair and wait for the dreads to form, thats like the worst way

and to wash you need a special RESIDUE FREE shampoo..i think theres a company called "dread head" that makes it

they dont come out easy, they will take a few weeks to form fully and then once ya got em..your pretty much stick with them..you gotta cut the hair off.
