u can start as small as 5cm or up you should grow it a bit longer than how long you want your dreads to be. And it also depends how you do it, if ur doing it professionally by a hair dresser then probably grow it out to how long you want your dreads to be but if u want to do it the traditional way (salt water and lots of grinding) then 5cm should do it

Can you have dreadlocks with thin hair?
Curly hair are usually the best kind of hair to make dreadlocks with. Short hair might be a problem though. If you want the thick dreadlocks to stay together, you have to have at least 5 or 6 inches of hair, and the longer it is, the better they will hold together. never use wax dreads thicken over time and can "congo" or grow together to thicken thin dreads to start can end up thick years down the road

Can you curl dreadlocks with a curling iron?
No.. It would burn your hair because it's not smooth enough to straiten. Hair that is in dreadlocks is curled tightly, it can't be done. I don't even know why you would try.. If you wanted your hair strait why did you put them in dreadlocks in the first place.
Are dreadlocks real hair?
Yes, fake dreadlocks exist. You can get dreadlock extensions at some salons that attach to your hair. They are not permanent, and are not cheap. Also, what some would consider to be "fake" dreadlocks, is getting a dread-perm at a salon. The hair is knotted using chemicals and perm roller things. Not only is this expensive, but it has to be re-done every few months, and your hair isn't really dreaded. Dread-permed hair will not mature and lock up like it will with other natural methods.
How long do you have to grow your hair to get dreadlocks?
