Answer: Dreadlocks are heavy matted coils of hair which form by themselves eventually fusing together to form a single dread. This is possible in all hair types if the hair is allowed to grow naturally without grooming or conditioning for a long period of time. Dreadlocks can also be intentionally formed; because of the variety of different hair textures, various methods are used to encourage the formation of locks such as back combing sections of the hair, twisting or a process involving the weaving of the hair with a crochet hook to form knots. Dreadlocks are associated most closely with the recent Rastafari movement (related to Jamaica), but people from many groups in history before them have worn dreadlocks, including the Hindu Shiva worshippers of India, historic European peoples and the Sufis of Pakistan. They are also called Locks or Dreads.
