FAQs

What are the benefits of dreadlocks?

Dreadlocks promote healthy hair by preserving hair’s natural moisture. It’s also super easy to style and looks so damn cool.

Do dreads grow your hair?

There’s not enough research to prove this. In fact, hair styled in dread grows at the same speed as undreaded hair. 

Do dreadlocks damage hair?

Pulling your dreads in high buns, twisting them tightly, or pulling them back on a ponytail might lead to damage. In addition to that, as your hair grows, the weight of your hair can contribute to breakage and thinning. 

How long can dreads last?

Dreads can last from about twelve to fifteen months depending on how often you style them.
