I have been a member of this group for a while, but have been inactive for a long time. Now that I have dreadlocks, I feel that I have something to contribute, and have lots of questions, too! I started letting my hair lock naturally last August (2014), so they are pretty young. I currently have 13 strong, well-established locks with more being born all the time. None of the front is locking yet...not sure it ever will. I had one dreadlock misadventure a few years ago....fell for the sales pitch I guess you could say. I have found this site to be so helpful and by following the advice on it, this time around the process has been so successful and happy! Thank you!
Hello again!
Yes my first attempt was with wax and backcombing and palm rolling and it was horrible...both the experience and the results. This time I let Nature do it for me, and I love my dreads...the ones I have so far are strong, with new ones forming all the time. No pain, my hair is healthy and clean.
