Re: [hair extensions and dreadlocks] dread perms vs. natural dreads

dreadperms are great from the start and really all dreads whether
permed or 'natural' will require some sort of maintenance - salon or
otherwise, to help them grow and stay tidy. with a brand new dreadperm
you can use a tiny amount of wax to tame it in the first month, then
later on add more for rolling.
