gel-filled.
is because the gel have different minerals to do paint right?
Gel holds hair in place for a longer period of time because gel is more thicker than hair spray.Hair spray is very thin.
Elmer's says the gel is a much tougher glue.
It depends how you've had them done, and how you're maintaining it. If you're using chemicals and wires to maintain your dreads, or do an excessive amount of palm rolling at the base, then they will never thicken up much. By forcing them into a specific compact shape, the dread just won't have the capacity to absorb all the hairs that normally fall out. These dreads will grow faster but will always be as thin as they were originally made to be. If you're not forcing the dread into a compact shape at its base, then yes it will grow thicker. A dread does this by absorbing every hair in the area, including the ones that that normally fall out of your head. Remember the average human head loses 50-100 hairs a day! Those dreads will grow slower, but thicker. Over time some dreads will merge together. You can fix this by ripping them apart if you want.
No it won't it wi jus make your dreads and scalp hard as a rock
To turn braids into dreadlocks, start by allowing your braided hair to mat and tangle naturally over time. You can enhance this process by maintaining the braids without washing them frequently, using a little bit of wax or locking gel to help them hold their shape. After several weeks, you can remove the braids, and the hair should have formed into dreads, which can then be separated and maintained with regular palm rolling or twisting. Remember that patience is key, as the process can take several months for the dreads to fully mature.
Lemon juice can help in the process of locking dreads due to its acidic properties, which can tighten the hair cuticle and promote a firmer texture. However, it should be used sparingly, as excessive acidity can dry out the hair and scalp. It's also important to follow up with a good moisturizing regimen to maintain hair health. For best results, consider using it in combination with other locking methods.
Mini dreads are often referred to as "starter locs" or "baby locs" due to their smaller size and early stage in the locking process. They may also be called "micro dreads" or "micro locs," highlighting their fine and delicate appearance. Additionally, some people simply refer to them as "dreadlets."
Yes you can use vaseline on dreads. I would not recommend starting dreads off with vaseline, but if you want to use it to grease your scalp I will use just a little. If you use too much grease like vaseline, depending on the length and thickness of your dreads, when it's time for a shampoo you will have to use steaming hot water or as hot as you can stand it with shampoo to remove all the grease. If you are starting dreads off I recommend using beeswax, or beeswax gel,or find a brand that you are comfortable with.
To start dreads with permed hair, first ensure your hair is clean and free of any products. You can section your hair into small parts and use the twisting method or backcombing technique to form the dreads. It's crucial to maintain moisture and use a dreadlock-specific wax or gel to help hold the shape. Regular maintenance, such as palm rolling and separating the roots, will also be necessary to encourage the dreads to mature properly.

The time it takes to grow dreads from a fade haircut can vary significantly depending on the hair growth rate and desired length for the dreads. On average, hair grows about half an inch per month, so it may take anywhere from 6 months to a couple of years to grow enough hair to form dreads, depending on how long you want them. Additionally, the process of locking the hair into dreadlocks can take several more months. It's essential to consider hair texture and maintenance during this time as well.
