Dreadlocks, also known as locs, are a hairstyle in which the hair is twisted and matted together to form long, rope-like strands. Dreadlocks can be formed naturally or intentionally created and are often associated with Rastafari culture and spirituality.
Creating dreadlocks on straight hair requires a different approach compared to naturally curly or coily hair types. Individuals with straight hair can achieve dreadlocks through various methods, including backcombing, twisting, and crocheting. These techniques involve manipulating the hair to create friction and encourage the formation of knots and tangles.
