How to grow healthy dread hair?
I dont know if I spell it correctly, but what i want to know if I am able to grow my hair looking like in the pirates movie with cpt. Jack Sparrow. How long should they be? How much time I need? And most important, how to do it? I think they should be not washed right for 1-2 years?

Please don't listen to these people talking about "dreads r icky n dirty n its impossible to have clean dreads, blah blah..." I've had dreads for about four and a half years and I get complements on my dreads all the time because I keep them nice and fresh AND they smell clean. There's different ways to go about getting dreads; ONE way to do it is to not take care of your hair and let them get "dirty," but that's not the only way and just trifilin'.
When I first got my dreads, the salon used bees wax and brown gel to twist them. After they twisted all of them, they spritzed me and put me under the dryer. There's all kinds of other products on the market that can be used to start dreads, from tea tree oil, to lemon juice. And no...ants won't crawl into your hair...because I've heard that one too. When your dreads are still fresh and immature, you want to get them touched up about every 2 to 3 weeks, and be careful when washing them, because they will unravel. Dreads will take about 6 to 12 months to fully mature and lock, and afterwards, can be cleaned just like regular hair, and you actually DO need to wash them, because they won't grow as well if your scalp is dirty. After your dreads mature, you can go without getting your dreadlocks being touched up for months at a time if you do some light maintainence to them yourself.

You fairly cant. But it is a confirmed indisputable fact that folks who ingest above common amounts of protein , spurt their hair progress by using 10% a month. A small planters bag of peanuts has 10-14g of protein. Protein shakes. Those are essentially the most depended on protein dietary supplements.
