You will very possibly lose a lot of hair on your first dreadlock session as well as during routine maintenance sessions if you go any route other than the 100% neglect method. More than 250 dreads are most likely sisterlocks and they will be extremely thin. 200+ DREADS: These locs will be micro-sized.This is an ideal amount for people with thick, coarse hair. 101 TO 200 DREADS: There’s a huge discrepancy between someone who has around 101 dreads versus someone with 200 but generally speaking, you’ll end up with thin to very thin locs.If you have thick hair, this amount of locs will give you medium-thin dreads. 81 TO 100 DREADS: This seems to be a good number of dreads for those who have thinner hair textures and want thinner locs, although I personally wouldn’t go much higher than 100.61 TO 80 DREADS: This amount will give you thin dreads if you have thin hair but somewhat thick dreads if you have thick hair.46 TO 60 DREADS: This amount will give you medium locs, about the thickness of a Number 2 pencil.I have a lot of loose flyaways in between the dreads which help to cover the parts in my scalp but otherwise, it looks like a full head of hair with plenty of volume-it’s just a bit messy at the root. To give you an example, I currently have 36 dreads. 30 TO 45 DREADS: With this amount, you will have medium-thick dreads, about the thickness of a sharpie marker. 20 TO 29 DREADS: They will be thick and may take a long time to dry out but if you’re careful you can manage it.Not to mention that you’re more prone to buildup and residue, especially if you’ve used a lot of product or wax in your hair. The thicker your dread is, the more water it will absorb when wet and the longer they will take to dry. After a shower, it can take them up to 24 hours to dry completely. UNDER 20 DREADS: Twenty or fewer locs in a full head of hair is a bad idea because you’ll end up with large locs which puts you at a much higher risk of developing mold.
