No Dear...laughing here.
It's uncombed, chunks of hair that form into a snake. You section off chunks of hair and back comb them ( remember teasing your hair? ) until they stay like that. Then you never comb it again. They can indeed fall off when the hair near the scalp breaks off until there is nothing left holding the dread to the head.
see this site for more information on real and fake dreads.
