Are rubber bands good or bad?
Rubber bands are good to use in short periods of time. If your hair has started to dread in a area, rubber bands are good for containing your hair and helping the dreading process along the way. Once you have noticed that the dread has tightened below the rubber band you should remove it. The area where the rubber band is located usually does not helped although above and below the band will tend to tighten. Rubber bands are also good for graphing out hair sections before you start backcombing.
