It's not a guarantee.
Would worry about bringing negative attention.

In the process of doing this now.. I usually keep my hair cut low but I've gotten tired of it.. although at times I want to cut my fro as well and get the fresh haircut...

I hesitate to get cordless clippers because over time the battery will get weak and the machine will become useless. If they sold replacement batteries I would consider it. Until then corded > cordless

I know you can buy replacement batteries for Wahl cordless clippers.

Has the stigma that dreads have/had passed over?
It's either that or going bald, and I feel like maintaining dreads is expensive.

Liquid biotin is the move fellas. My hair was already long as **** but it's getting thicker as well as pushing my hairline forward a bit. I apply a few drops generously to my scalp in the crown area (where it's a little thinner) and massage in. My beautician that braids my hair always compliments me on the progress when I go. Also do the 15 drops in some water every other day.
Here's the one I use:

Good looking out fam.. I don't have any problem with growth but it's always a plus if I can get it to grow faster.. the one that you posted says that you can take it internally.. do you only use yours on your scalp?

Hardest part would’ve been the initial year for me since my locs were too short to style them especially when it came to either work or job interviews.
I’ll say it took about 8 months but it depends how you have them done when you first start them

Yea just put in in some water or juice. I only apply a couple drops directly to my hair the other days.
