Grand-Mommy Has Dreads!

Introduce Yourself

Gypsy Vin Rose said:

That's great, Lauren. : ) Did you let yours dread naturally, or did you have them done? Either way, from what I can tell in your photo, yours look great! I've been struggling with mine this week. My 'babies' are dreading naturally, and I have more forming each day. The only problem for me is, they are more of a tangled mess right now, and are slowly making their way into becoming dreads. I'm doing my best to remain patient; though it isn't my nature. hahaha

Help! Save My Dreads

Hello Myiah,

Please stop twisting, forget what other may say or think about neat dreads needing to be twisted. As far as black people and washing let to tell you I'm african american and I wash my my hair at least 3 times a week. 8 years of twisting I'm surprised you have any hair at all. I feel so bad for you. I believe if you keep twisting it will continue to come out. Speak with SE on what shampoos etc you should be using. Good luck.

General Questions

Hello,

When I got dreadlocks about 4 months ago my hair was already colored and highlight. I have since been going to have touch ups every 6 weeks to cover the grey roots lol. Anyway I have them professionally done at colorific hair salon here in Illinois. I have not had any problems, I am african american and my stylist is caucasian. She has been doing my hair for 3 years and I trust her completely. The good thing is if you going freeform it can be washed (it will loosen some) and just go.
