I didnt know there were different styles of dreads, just thought there were different ways of doing it, so thats cool. Im not neccessarily going to braid it, was just wondering if it helps. Ive heard of 2 ways to braid. 1. Braid the night before to 'crimp' hair, pretty similar to a perm i guess. 2. braid it then back comb. Whatever the girls would rather do is probably whats going to happen since theyll be doing all the work
