Rubberbands Dreadlocks

Rubberbands are supa helpful for getting your roots and tips to lock up. DreadHead studies have shown that keeping a snug (never tight) rubberband at the root of your dread for the first two months, prevents a lot of loose hair by helping new growth knot and lock up easier. Bands at the tips prevent the dread from unraveling before the dread has a chance to lock down. Sounds like a good deal to me. =]
