    I started off with a full set and went to high top for a high fade. The hightop dreads are keeping me from cutting my hair complety off because I can have both; a haircut with dreads. Also, my scalp can breath in the area where it's cut. It's faster to put your dreads in a ponytail with hightop dreads than a full set because with a full set of dreads, you have to wait until all of your hair equals to the same length to grip it and sometimes you won't be able to because of uneven length in certain areas. You will get more attention and compliments with a hightop.

    Instead of telling people they shouldn’t get something, or to stop doing something and potentially offending people who love those things, maybe try a more informative title, like “what you should know if you’re wanting high top locs” or “what to know before getting high top locs” because then it opens up the conversation for people with the same advice and experience, aka leading to even more advice for people wanting insight , just my thoughts

    It doesn’t grow faster, you just get more length because the parts are smaller, which makes the dreads skinnier. If 2 ppl have the same hair type etc…. The one with the smaller parts will have longer and more dreads compared to the one with the bigger parts and shorter/dreads. There’s a trade off tho because the longer the hair gets the weaker they’ll be which means more breakage/ loss of length compared to the thicker dreads that will eventually get to the length of the skinnier dreads but with stronger dreads/ less breakage, which will eventually be longer, thicker, healthier.
