I brushed out the tips about 2-3 in and so far that has satisfied my need for change. So I have the curls and dreads

The main reason I started dreads was my allergy to most soaps and products to “tame” my hair. Now that I’ve found Vicki’s soap and no longer have those issues I’ve really enjoyed the loose hairs that I’m getting. They seem healthy and I’m not hating my hair anymore. That’s a major step for me. I’ll give it a few weeks before deciding but I’m keeping it as an option.

I’m not sure why but I’m considering brushing my dreads out. I just feel the need for a change. I still love my dreads. Sometimes I just miss my curls :/

btw
the lakota in the tipi offered us 1000 acres of black hills community
know what an honor that is?
Don’t mean to hijack the thread but is the Black Hills thing ongoing? I’m headed to Montana next month and will be driving through there. I had previously accepted something in Wisconsin or I would have followed after The Gathering.

Hello DreadHeads completely new to this.
Introduce Yourself
Have you taken a look at the Dreadlock Soap we advertise here? I’m not sure what gel your using but if it’s not Vicki’s I’m not sure I’d recommend continuing to use it. It’s probably slowing things down. You don’t want all that product to stay in the center of your dreads and grow nasties once they start forming. Your hair might be too short but only time and patience will make dreads. All the backcombing, wax and all that jazz really only seems to slow the process even if they appear more dready early on.

I’ll be headed up to the gathering within the next week. If anyone doesn’t mind cats and needs a ride between Raleigh,NC and the gathering let me know. I have an open passenger seat.
What do your family think of your dreads?
Life Issues Facing Dreads
My mom is disgusted by dreads wither mine or anyone else’s. She still accepts me for my own weird self and she understands why I have dreads but she makes sure I know she thinks dreads are gross. I haven’t seen her in over three years though so she hasn’t seen my dreads in person.
My dad also thinks they’re gross and makes continuous comments about cutting or brushing them out. His favorite thing is to draw his friends/other family in on the ‘make fun of her hair’ game. He’s utterly confused by others curiosity and acceptance.
Everyone else is a mix. Some are intrigued and want to learn more. Namely my grandma. She loves them. And some also act the same as my parents.
