Hi, im new to the cleveland ohio area, my dreads are two months old and i could use some help tightening them up at the roots. anyone from my area interested in helping me out or throwing a few tips my way would be much appreciated:)
I don't even live in the same continent as you, so I can't help with that, but two months isn't a long time. It's normal to have loose roots for a while, and you'll always have some undreaded hair anyway, so you don't need any help with tightening them, it does it on its own over time.
dont tighten the roots yioy gotto let them tighten themselves over time'anythingthat u do to tighten the roots weakens the dreads and is a mistake
If you try to tighten the roots, you can end up pulling them too tight and that will cause baldness around the locks. Sometimes this is irreversible. You don't want a nice head of hair and then a bunch of bald spots pock marking your scalp. We've all got loose hair at the roots. As the mature, they will mat and knot up on their own.
^what they said...just give them time.
