Starting my natural process later this week!

HI MY NAME IS SENDO, IM NEW TO THIS SITE, THIS IS MY ONLY DAY! MY HAIR IS ABOUT TO MY EYES AND BOTTOM OF MY EARS. I SIGNED UP TODAY. AND.......After spending only one day on this site, I've learned so much, thanks to SE, i was on here just browsing and felt like other sites have misguided me in this process and it frustrated me, SE totally helped me out and explained that hey Natural Method is the best, and it really just opened my eyes up because I looked at everyone elses comments and notice people were doing natural as well, and the other sites are all about backcombing and waxing, and on those sites your told its the best way to do dreads now a days, and you believe in these sites because they talk about how there here for you, and you trust them that it is the right way to do them without damaging my hair, and now i see on this site people have problems, well i went ahead and purchased the Karma Vegan Dreadlock Shampoo today, so when it gets to AZ my journey may begin!! and who knows where my own dreads might lead me to!!!

those other sites claim 100% satisfaction but at the same time have a campain against the antiwaxers if everyone was so satisfied everyone would be waxy but just search youtube for dreads no wax and you'll see just how many feel so strongly against wax they felt the need to specify it in the titlesthousands buy into the lie too and discover its a mistake after just one use or after just opening the jar and touching it but once u open the jar you cant get your money back thats the scam they got u wether u use it or not wether u cut your dreads or not as long as u buy it they got u..and as long as they deny you ever complained they got many many more

My new book Ban The Taboo Vol 1

I appreciate the welcome and I'm excited to join the site, it makes me feel good, and during the process I hope to learn more and help others as well, this is very exciting for me

so thats what i hear

Hallo everyone, My name is Billy ( I am a girl) I have long hair and I just started my locks. I used the twist and pull thingy or whatever you call it. I am a little worried about the washing process. I was told to use baking soda or sea salt with water only to wash my locks. and then to use 100% aloe to help control the frizz. And a conditioner that washes out completely. The frizz does not bother me, but I was never told how often to wash the locks or how much to use of baking soda or sea salt and aloe. Anyone know? I will have a picture up soon.. :D

Thank you much for the help.. :D

yea do as SE told you........... and a conditioner that washes out completely well you really dont want to use a conditioner for a while, that will just prevent your hair from knotting up as fast, and you dont wash you hair with a sea salt, you take a bit and mix it with some water and put it in a spray bottle and mist your hair with it, this will speed up the process.........
