Nice! six month shrinkage!!! Hey, I kinda like it...but I gotta ask, are you going to trim your fringe to match the dreads' length when they finish shrinking? Maybe it works long like this though, because you've left the wispy ends. ^^

Maybe it works long like this though, because you've left the wispy ends. ^^ I actually have been wondering that myself. I have contemplated adding some of the fringe into my dreads that are framing my face and then possibly trimming way up. I have yet to do anything drastic but im sure it'll be soon. It does go well with the flow of the wispys like you said though.. And i fully intend to let the wispys stay if thats what they do. I think as years go on..they will shrink up into the dread.. But they have saved me during the shrinkage because without them i wouldnt be able to wear my hair up very well.

I'm curious as to what will happen with them in time. I have naturally fine straight hair. Its a good 3-6 inches undreaded on any given dread. I just sectioned so small that there was no way to dread the ends up if i wanted to.. unless i blunted em.. But i didnt wanna go that route.

the volume looks great on you. the ends may never really dread, but my opinion is better that way. Keep rocking your awesome!

I swear yours have completely skipped the ugly stage! You look fabulous! I did super tight tnr on very straight hair... Month 5 was horrible. And honestly in person...they are really not as appealing most of the time. The top of my head dreads are barely 6 inches at this point and still shrinking. With all of the shrinkage thats pretty much just begun I really think i've got one heck of a mess to look forward to. But thank you!!

So awesome! It seems like they have been so nicely defined from day one.. Mine are so wild at 2 months, loose hair all over the place! I probably didn't get them as tight as you did though. Anyway, looking beautiful!
