'look at' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'plaiting dreads with minimum of skill' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but

(Other definitions for address that I've seen before include "Speak to - direct" , "Talk - indication of house" , "personal details" , "Where you live" , "Give a speech to" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
