palm rolings a dumb idea adding aloe is too, its dreading, let it dread.. aloe conditions slowing the process, palm rolling does nothing at all, hat weakensunless you palm roll to the extent of obsessiveness and that weakens dreads..just leave em..theyre fine..you want dreads right? that right there is how dreads dread..why try to change it? or stop it? or think of it as something to fix...see thats why rastavannies dreads look fake.. everytime they began to dread..really dread..he had to intrervene..oh no a loop fix it..oh no a knot..fix it.. oh no roots that dread on theyre own..fix it..absolutely no actual dreading involved, instead..manufacturing..rub roll twist crochet interlkock (eek) make make make..force forfce force..never even stopping a momment to simply allow dreads to be dreads...when you want advice on dreadingdont turn to someone who hasnt taken 1 momment to simply allow dreads to be dreadsif u palm rollled it now, in 15 mninutes it will lpook the same as it does now..youd have to keep at it..over and over and over to do anything at all..and what would u accomplish?destroying the4 natural beauty of te dread..remove every hint of individuality and personality..dammage it too ofcourse..butyour ultimate end would be perfect uniformity control conformity ..a clone..a dread without any hope of ever being noticed in the crowd..you know many people name theyre dreads? why..because each is unique..an individual..worthy of a name..not just a numberrastavany..can you even tell one of yours apart from another?
