Un-dreaded Bangs

Hey everyone!My dreads are well over a year old, and I love them more than ever due to the support and advice I have received from this site.My question for you is how do you get your bangs to dread? My hair is naturally very fine and soft and I have a lot of loose hair around my hairline/bangs area. I know that dreads "pick up" the loose hairs over time, but due to the amount of movement and brushing my hair out of my eyes I just cant seem to make any progress. So how do you deal with the…See More

How long have you been dreading?
since september 21st 2010
Dreading methods, maintenance, and products used (if you currently have dreads)
back combing, wax for a bit (never again), clarifying shampoo, BS (baking soda lol), nag champa soap occasionally.

i fell on the ground last night.

hard enough,

in fact,

to skin up my hands and knees.

but what bothered me the most

wasn't the pain

or the torn skin,

but the fact that i was pushed,

and there was Nobody around to push me.

“Ignorance Is Bliss (As Far As I Know)” -Canon Parker-

Posted on January 7, 1979 at 8:00pm 3 Comments

heavy footfalls shatter my ivory daydream

oh what unmistakeable bliss forgotten and unseen

your cracked and bleeding lips tell a tale fare more beautiful than words.

there is nothing more than the truth we know!

there is nothing more than the here and now!”
