Seven months into twist and rip/back comb and my hair looks like a mop head and not at all like dreads..
Dread Maintenance
Back combed/twist and ripped seven-eight months ago and have been just letting it be, separating and washing once or twice a week. I can feel some dreads on the sides and front, but they are almost all about the thickness of half of a pencil, or thinner with just a couple being slightly larger
The back is almost entirely not dreaded, with just super slight signs of being not perfectly straight, most likely from having to wear a tam/bandana while I work (food production).
Does not look at all like dreadlocks just look like I have messy bedhair as it has for seven months.. this seems to not be normal in comparison to all of the timelines I have looked at, where people's hair gets passed this stage at month 3 or 4
Should I be palmrolling or something? I feel like I am missing something or doing something wrong
