Summarize this article in one sentence.
Use a comb to gather a 34 inch (1.9cm) thick section of hair. This will form the dread. Start by dreading the hair on the back of your head first. Grab the ends of the section of hair in between your index finger and thumb and twist it in 1 direction. Use your other index finger and thumb to hold the twist in place as you twist the end even further. Continue twisting it in the same direction until the entire section of hair is twisted. Once the hair is fully wound up, grab the end of the section with both hands and pull the ends of the hair in opposite directions. This will divide the sectioned hair and start the knotting process for the dreads. Your section of hair should pull apart easily and shouldn't be painful. Depending on the length of the hair, you'll have to twist and rip each section 25-50 times until the hair starts to dread. Once you've knotted the entire section of hair, you can secure the dread with a rubber band at the root and the end of the dread. This will make it easier to work on the rest of the hair without messing up the locs you already created. You can apply loc cream to the dreadlock to prevent scalp and hair dryness. Repeat the process on different sections of the hair, moving towards the front of the head. Once you're done twisting and ripping the hair into dreads, you can remove the rubber bands.
Separate a section of hair. Twist the section of hair with your fingers. Pull the tip of the section apart towards the root. Continue twisting and ripping the section of hair. Secure rubber bands near the end and root of the dread. Repeat the process on the rest of the hair.
