Natural methods to help hair start dreading?

I started about a week or two ago and already have about 5 or 6 little baby dreads forming. One is starting out great and the others are doing alright. The rest of my head is a curly mess, so I was wondering if there was any natural ways to help the dreads form? I don't want to backcomb or twist and rip and I don't want to use any products. Thanks!

Are you saying that you don't want to use any store-bought products, or you don't want to use ANY products whatsoever? Ever considered sea salt spray? It's pretty easy to make your own...

The most natural way to dread is time. We all have time. When you sleep you have time. When you are hanging out, you have time. When you are with your buddies, you have time. When you sit on the toilet, you have time. So see, you are dreading and using only time.

Two weeks is nothing. You have only been dreading for 336 hours, that's not much time, ya need more.

My main worry is that they've been forming, but I'll get my hair wet and not even wash it and they come loose. I've lost all but one. They'll reform and then drastically loosen when it gets wet. I just started trying sea salt spray today.

That's how knots start and dreads form, by coming lose, reforming, then coming lose a bunch of times. No worries just be patient! Most people don't have any signs of dreading in just two weeks. Washing will help knots form, even if it seems to hinder progress
