How long do dreads and plaits last?
Usually dreads and plaits last for around three months. However, unless the hair was less than 3 cm long, dreads and plaits do not come out until they are taken out, which is at the wearer’s discretion. Dreads and plaits will last longer if the root hairs that grow are tidied, which In Visible Light shows their clients how to do. After around five months the roots will start to dread, which can be combed out, or is a great way of starting dreads naturally if you want to switch from plaits to dreads that are unpermed but well sectioned.
