Dreadlocks: how and why

There are many ways to stand out from the crowd. Someone wears bright unusual clothes, someone does piercing in different places, someone weaves dreadlocks. Some decorate themselves in all three ways at once, however we will talk about the latter.

Today, when the industry of body modificationsdevelops more and more actively, so-called jd dreadlocks became popular. They do not look exactly the same as usual. For example, they are more subtle. In addition, dreadlocks look a little more accurate than real dreadlocks. Before delving into the features of creating and caring for this hairdo, let's recall how it all began.

In fact, to trace the history of this phenomenonpretty hard. It is commonly believed that for the first time people with such hair styles began to walk around the African lands. The exact time is also unknown, but it is supposed that primitive people knew about dreadlocks (the name used by hairdressers and hairdressers).

Of course, they did not do it on purpose. They were formed arbitrarily, as if by themselves. Today, someone can also experiment. This will take quite a long time (about a year), but if you have curly hair, the process will go faster. The fact is that dreadlocks can appear in those who do not wash their hair and do not comb their hair. Such a strange concept in this hairstyle.

Usually it is associated with the movement of Rastafari, but today a person of any culture and community can make it to himself.

Dreadlocks are usually done in two cases. In order to look fashionable, but do not worry about your hair, or to find out if it's worth making dreadlocks. After all, the latter are often called dangerous. Where does this name come from? It's simple: while realizing your hair, your real hair suffers, you can not untangle them - just cut it off at the root.

But jd dreads are made using a specialmaterial - kanekalon. These are the so-called artificial hair. They are weaved into real ones. This method is called the "eight". In this case, your locks are not damaged in any way and do not suffer. It is believed that these are the safest and most easily implemented dreadlocks. However, their creation takes about 4 hours. And if your hair is very long, then even more.

J Dreadlocks (photos can be seen in the article) are heldan average of 2-3 months. This time depends on how fast your hair grows. After that, they can easily be removed. If you do not want to part with them, then you can do the usual correction. It costs less than creating a new hairstyle, but in the end looks just as good.

Of course, dreadlocks can not be combed. On the other hand, you probably will not succeed. To wash a head enough only once a week. However, if desired, this procedure can be arranged even once every 14 days!

In order to wash your head, you needuse a special, special shampoo. It can be purchased in the same salon where you created a hairstyle. Consider, a simple shampoo is unlikely to do this. However, if you do not want to spend money, you can use normal soap. The main thing is that it should be of high quality.
