Can plaits or dreads be done without sectioning the hair?
No. The hair within each dread or plait needs to be clean and well defined so that it does not dread into the adjacent dreads and plaits, which would happen within one or two weeks if dreads or plaits are not sectioned. Sections are usually not visible underneath, or at back. A few sections are visible at the hairline, but they disappear during the first week and are covered by the short new growth hairs between each section.
