Hello fellow dreadie!I also have dreads... I think the only problem that came up in
previous posts was that it might be really hard to a) coat the hairs
in each dread with henna paste, and b) remove the henna paste from
the hair/dreads!
No one has yet offered to cleave a bit o' dread and submit it to
Catherine for testing...
Another concern is what you used to dread your hair (eg. wax)...
That would act as a barrier between the henna and the hair.
One plus: you might be able to successfully henna your 'baby dreads'
if they're still poofy. I don't think I could henna mine (the roots,
yes) because the knots are too tight. Then again, my hairstylist
friends have been successful at bleaching & dying dreads...
