Help! Can't decide if I should keep my locks!
Help! Save My Dreads
Thank you for the great advice!!! No, I never used any wax or anything, I researched pretty thoroughly before I began. It just seems like a really gross thing to me haha

okay that's good to know. so should I keep palm rolling or will they just make themselves a little rounder eventually?

never root rub thats horible for them..just leave em be
Or is it okay that my dreads are flattening, and once they're more mature they might start to round out? I also root rub occasionally.
My dreadlocks are still very young-- I've only had them for about 3 months. My whole head isn't dreaded because I'm not ready to make a full commitment yet and I wanted to see what maintenance would be like first. So I have 10 dreads, I think, under the rest of my hair. I did them using a combination of twist and rip and back combing. My problem is that I don't want to spend as much time on them as I am! They keep flattening out completely, and matting at the roots. So I have to palm roll them every day, but it doesn't really work-- they still stay pretty flat. I want to know if something I'm doing is making them be so flat. Am I sleeping on them wrong? I'm the type of girl that doesn't want to spend time on my hair. Does that mean dreadlocks aren't for me? Please help!!!!!
