I need this product NOW!!! I haven't combed since June 17 and still no dreads. In fact, I came here today to try and figure out what I might be doing wrong. I've tried to be patient, but man, this is ridiculous to have nothing yet.
Interesting but would it work for baby dreads to?
whats it called?

i was sent a sample of the liquid as well and i like it much better than the bars. the bars left my hair too soft and unknotted. the liquid is easier to rinse out and i don't have to use much to get my hair clean. i actually just add a tbs or so to a squeeze bottle of water and then squirt it directly on my scalp like i do when i use regular shampoo. i don't use this every time i wash because its a little bottle and i'm trying to make it last until i can order more. plus i have a shampoo that i really like that removes any build up and its helping to alleviate my dry, flaking scalp so i alternate.
does it work in hard water like its bars?
i dont like tea tree because it made my hair grease up. greaselocks? so i would think only use that stuff if u have really dry hair.
is that stuff residue free, work in hard water and good for baby locks???

try to find handmade natural soaps around your community. I found a great place near me called Lotus Leaf Health Market and they had shelves of soaps & essential oils. I bought a bar called "Garden Gate" the ingredients are: saponified oils of soybean, olive, coconut & shea butter. Essential oils: spearmint, peppermint, lavender, rosemary
got a sallys beauty supply? if iowa has it, it ought to be in other states to. anyway they sell 24 packs of beads there for only a buck! i think they come in 4 colors and i think they are great for the price.
so just keep the suff in my hair for bout 2 minutes instead of 4? it does wonders though.

Haha how strange, I was just wondering if I could substitute white vinegar for acv. Is the cocoa butter necessary for this or will the white vinegar and oils work ok? I only ask as I have no money to purchase the extra ingredients with, and really want to do the rinse asap.
Also, the only oil I have is lavender, but I was wondering, if I made a super strength tea out of my dried herbs, and then drained it and added to the water,would that be cool?I vaguely remember rinsing my dreads with a herb tea that i'd made and leave to steep until it cooled. Felt lovely pouring it over my head, and smelt pretty nice too.
