Although dreadlocked hairstyles date back to ancient times, they are still worn today, as many people find that dreadlocks are a fashionable and fairly low-maintenance hairstyle, according to howtodread.com. The look is achieved by backcombing hair, or holding hair at the tip and combing upward against the hair, then applying beeswax or another wax-based hair product and twisting chunks of hair. It can be completed at home or in a professional salon through a process called dreadlock perming. From time to time, some upkeep, such as trimming, may be required. This process can be done quickly at home.

Wrap a coated elastic band around the dreadlock about an inch above the end you want to trim. The Dread Head HQ website suggests wrapping the band tightly, and using two bands if the first one slips at full tightness.
2Using sharp scissors, cut the dreadlock at a diagonal angle below the elastic band, leaving some room (enough to twist the hair) beneath the band for the end to re-dread after the loose hair is removed.
3Hold the tip of the dreadlock with long-nosed pliers and backcomb any remaining loose hair up to the elastic band. Dreadlocks.org recommends applying another coat of wax to the ends after tending to loose hair.
4Twist waxed hair by gently rolling it between your fingers until the ends are knotted and secure another elastic band around the end. Use a band the same color as your hair if you don't want it to be noticeable.
5Cut off the original elastic bands (the ones above the band you just added). The new elastic band at the bottom will keep the dread from unraveling.
