What are length recommendations based on?
Dreading Methods
yo I also hav african hair type and I started my journey after 5 months and 1 week of growth (I washed once a week with apple cider vinegar to better prepare my hair for the natural process and my hair was 3 inches long when I started). To better cope with the process and have it more manicured like u said I used the towel-rub method (essentially rubbin gently through my hair with a small dark color towel for bout 10-15 mins every morning). my hair began lockin in within a couple weeks (not perfectly but they started separating into the desired sections) I really didn't even use the towel-rub for long bcuz all it helped me do is control my section and wut I recommend to u is to do the same if you want to have more presentable sections to your hair during the early stage, i don't wanna write too much but pm me if u wanna kno more
but here r some pics to help u see wut I mean
