The No-Dread Zone

I know that other people have posted about this before, but last night I realized how real the problem is..The hair on the sides of my head isn't really dreading. I T&Red them to encourage natural dreading at the roots, but that's not happening. The T&R fell out all the way. This is completely different behavior from the rest of my hair, which started dreading at the roots right away. I blunted the tips to lock the dreads in place until they were established, but last night I found three that had fallen out, and were almost completely straight--again, with no real dreading happening at the roots.This is week 16 for me. I have a good inch of dread growth everywhere else, but nothing is happening on the sides. If I were going the natural route, the hair would still be straight.

yeah the back left area of my head consistently unravels and becomes normal hair to date.. my theory is because i have a really strong growth pattern on my head, this area acts like a sinkhole for oils coming from my scalp.. cant think of any other reason!
