or shivathe mythology is that during the churning of the ocean with immense power all the impurities from the ocean came up and the Gods and Asuras started choking. Lord Shiva's esteemed presence upon the call for help made the Gods relaxed. Lord Shiva collecting all the poison in his palm swallowed it, during this process the poison entered in his body made Lord Shiva's skin color blue.
Will Curly Dreads Straighten Out?
Dreadlock Styles and Dread Styling
i have wavy hair and my baby dreads were all curly rather they r still bit curly at the ends (i know wot u mean by snakes coz in first few weeks i thought i looked like medusa), what i have noticed is the part that is not dreaded yet is still curly and the dreaded part is straight
so my curliness has actually reduced over time as the dreading is spreading (u can c it clearly in my timeline) so for me it looks like its gonna b dread straight.

1. nobody means ur dreads r unnatural if u don go natural method.....its just a name for a method2. even if u use harmful chemicals hair is going to dread naturally....what would chemicals do is spoil the hair texture which would help in knotting faster....all dreading happens naturally (maybe crocheting is an exception where u actually force the knots)3. so its not like someone is saying ur dreads r natural or unnatural but just trying to categorize the starting method.

I do understand what your saying, the only problem I have, is when some tries to tell me my method is unnatural. backcombing and tnr can both form naturally without products. Backcombing and tnr do not cause knots, in time your hair is what causes knots naturally. If you are not inhibiting and or forcing the hair to knot with chemicals and or wax, than what you are left with is hair that dreads naturally and knots up by its self in time. Backcombing and tnr are just guides for your hair. No different than when you separate/rip hair in to pieces, sizes that you like, you are also shaping guiding the hair with your hands to mold to your liking. so in the end it really comes down to letting your hair knot on its own with out the force of unnatural products chemicals and wax etc

"The problem here is that though I might have laid down a t&r foundation,"there u have said it, what we r talking about here is the foundation only, thats why they r called starter methods, how did u start the whole process. Now i understand some ppl using the whole natural = better perception to feel good about their process and name others who dont go natural. but if u look at the larger picture it is kinda necessary for easier understanding and we will find such characters everywhere, just ignore them. it is needed specially on a forum like this which aims at educating ppl abt dreading. I also understand what u mean by we shld not b categorizing ppl but this is not categorizing the ppl but the process. e.g. it would b really difficult to learn music if we didn't categorize. so we create a common terminology understood by most of the ppl and stick to it may or may not agreed by everyone. again sticking to one is important to avoid confusions about different terminologies occurring all over the site. so when a newcomer comes s/he reads the link on methods and understands this is what is meant by natural and this is what is meant by backcombing rather than putting her/his own brain to create new terminologies n more confusion.

The problem here is that though I might have laid down a t&r foundation, any new hair that grows in is natural dreading...it's not like I'm t&r'ing the new growth. At this point, 90% of my dreads were started with t&r, I have one that knotted completely on it's own (started as a t&r dread, but the new growth split, and I cut it free...so no part of that dread was ever t&r'd) and one that I lightly backcombed. I think this categorizing mess is (as the english would say ) 'bollocks'. It's like trying to categorize people into cliques... goth, punk, prep, ect. I don't fall into any of these, because (I believe) people are much too diverse to pin down to one group (or even a number of groups). Plus, people are completely dynamic; always changing and growing. Dreads are exactly the same. As was stated before, if I didn't tell people that I started with t&r, no one could even guess it now, at over a year into the process.
sourabh thakur said:separation method as a name does not really work because in most of the methods u do separate. just coz u tnr or backcomb does not mean u do not separate. if u want the dreads of particular size u separate. its like calling it washing method because in natural method u wash. the point here is how r the knots formed . they r not formed by separating. separating is just a maintenance. in natural method knots r formed naturally unlike other methods where u make them form by some or the other starter method.
Violet said:SE stop calling me a liar and get some insight . its like trying to talk to a brick wall with you. all dreads that formed with natural products or absent of, like wax and chemicals, and use natural products are natural. get it? leave it alone already. As for the name i suggested for your type of dreads, it make sense, because you are trying to categorize it, separation method describes exactly what you do with your hairyou simply separate your dreads and rip them, period. if you don't like it, come up with a name that fits for just your type of method and not the general wide spread method that everyone uses on this site. .its like saying you have black hair and i have blond hair but because I and many other people have blond hair some how its not real hair. And finally I want to say to all of you out there, That we who have use a Variety of natural methods such as the use of all natural products rather than harmful chemicals and wax etc to form natural dreadlocksRock on with your Natural dread selves and peace out.

how difficult it is to understand this?c its like we have different genres for films horror / thriller / drama / indiewe have made them so that it is easy to categorize them specially when someone is trying to spread some knowledge. tomorrow Hitchcock will get up and say my movies were more dramatic than many "drama" films so i ll put them in drama section. it doesnt help coz we r not bothered about the actual meaning of the word but we r just trying to categorize them, so it is easy to talk about them maybe. and it doesnt really mean any film in any genre is superior just by being in that genre and does not even mean a horror movie is not dramatic.

i stand by what i have said, all dreads are natural that do not use harmful chemicals
and or wax to start them with. yours are simply separation method, you are using your hands has tools to manipulate rip and to separate your dreads to the way you want them. comb used as a tool, no different, period. Weather you like it or not, your separation method is just a damaging to the hair as the other methods you are ripping and separatingyour hair to your liking. All except the neglect method requires ripping, breaking of the hair which causes damage.
