How is your hair supposed to be developing when you first stop combing?


General Questions

I just restarted my dreading journey and I'm only 3 days in. I also am going natural and have extra curly hair. basically I have a frizzy poofy mess on my head but it's tangling so quickly. :) so I just keep them clean and separate them as needed.

Afraid


General Talk

So......now that i've decided to dread my hair...i feel like a total chicken shit. I am currently in school and yea there are other people here with dreads but..idk. Last time i started with tnr so my "dreads" had some form to them and allowed people to get used to them gradually as they fell out and became a birds nest. lol. This time i am goingb naturally and my hair is already wicked curly and turned into a poofball from one night of sleeping on it. I AM TERRIFIED to walk out like that i rarely even wear my hair down for more than a couple hours cause it gets to fluffy. I need a boot to the ass to get myself going :/

Introduce Yourself

This is a reintroduction. My name is Jen I am 22 and currently live in Alfred,New York. I am going to school for veterinary technology and am hesitant to restart my dreads because of my career path. I had done tnr dreads last time but they came out too braidy. SO this time i am going natural. I have wicked curly blondish hair. I guess i just need some support in going thru with this decision. SOOooooooo HI! <3

Twist and rip not working ?!


Help! Save My Dreads

tnr is pretty much designed to fall out. About 50-70% of mine did then the really dreading began when my hair wasnt stuck in goofy braids. JUst let them fall out and do their thing.

I know :/ it's just the situation I'm in I can't keep them cleaned properly because I'm working around dust and dirt and shit. and somehow a ton of lint got meshed into them and it's super gross. they were coming along great too :(

soaring eagle said:

1srt off why are u taking them out? u will regret it unless its to start over due to wax/cxrochet

ok take a ton of cheap conditioner or olive oil soak em good

comb or brush out from thre tip up slowly and gently try using a sogft bristkle brush for the most part a comb for the tough spots

if u reach a point thats too tight to get out glob on more conditioner/oil and leave in overnight moving on the a new dread

it can take hours or days or more to remove em go slow and gentle

but think about it b4 u do

u will go into dread loss depression..its traumatizingt
