Dreaming of dreads!

Introduce Yourself

Your hair isn't too short for dreads, embrace the journey man I started growing mine from bald!

If you can't go natural twist and rip is the safest way to dread but I reckon natural is more rewarding. It's your hair doing what it wants rather than you telling it what to do. Lol I'd love to help you but I'm in Australia

I've got a loose fitting beanie on my head more often than not, and I always find myself playing with the front ones, and keeping them well seperated. and another question, they are suuuuper curly. will they straighten out as they mature or will i be stuck with weird curly looking dreads?

Every one is different. For me, I think because I sleep on my back more than my stomach that the dreads dreaded about 3 times faster on the back of my head. Do not think that since one side is sectioning itself off and dreading and that the other side won't. Honestly all you need to do is wait. keep ripping em apart and they will do the rest of the job themselves. To answer your questions, different parts of the head take different times to dread. Separating was not counter productive your hair will fix itself, you'll know more about your own hair over time. Patience will come to you the deeper into the journey you get. Good luck

Please help bring back my dreadies

Also, be very careful of the soaps you are using, I used to use a residue free soap full of chemicals. It's the one hospitals use on patients before surgery called gamophen, turns out its meant to dry your skin out and therefore ended up giving me a really dry scalp. Good luck!!!

Claire you've done the right thing coming here. There are various ways to wash and dry your dreads. Some people like to use baking soda to clean their hair, some people use soaps and some use special shampoos eg. Dr bronners. I would recommend you to go to dreadlockshampoo.com and buy some soaps or shampoos, that'd be the best thing you can do. They're 100% organic not overpriced and handmade. Me personally when I dry my hair I use a towel and hang it around my hair (without vigorously wiping my head with it because it is known to help loosen dreads) in order to soak up all the moisture. Hope I helped but maybe the site's pros can help you some moee
