Justine joined MagicMeganMama's group
Incredibly Shrinking Dreads
This group is for posting pics and discussing dreads that have had dramatic amounts of shrinkage. Shrinkage is normal, but some of us have lost as much as 75% or more of our length. See More
Mandy replied to Justine's discussion Dreads and major shrinkage!?"the shrinkage is normal and it's a good indicator that your hair is dreading and trying to mature. It will continue to shrink until the dreads fill up and tighten, and any new hair that grows will do the same so you will stay with very little…"
Faelwynn replied to Justine's discussion Dreads and major shrinkage!?"Happens to the best of us! When I started dreading my hair it was to the middle of my back... and now it hardly lays on my shoulders in some parts. Plus, I've noticed that my hair goes through periods of growth and shrinkage... it didn't…"
Bruce replied to Justine's discussion Dreads and major shrinkage!?"thats what dreads do , it has a lot to do with hair type and methord used to start dread. the shrinkage can last 12 months (again everyone is different) while your hair knots up"
Justine replied to Justine's discussion Dreads and major shrinkage!?"really wow i knew it was supposed to shrink but not as much as it has."
NaturalWomyn replied to Justine's discussion Dreads and major shrinkage!?"that's just what dreads do! My hair was to may bum 6 months ago now it's to my shoulders and still shrinking."

Rahbin said… - Hey girl i'm great thanks. I was a veggie for 20 years (half spent being vegan) but i'm not totally anymore. I eat fish, and occasionally farm raised (no hormone, etc) beef and buffalo. I don't like foul period-never have. How long have you been a veggie?

ZeeFighter said… - That's cool! I have for a while as well. But I always wanted wild hair. I wanted a Mohawk, liberty spikes, shaved head. Weird stuff lol. But I was never allowed to cut my hair. So now it's so long and hard to manage, but I don't have the heart to cut it so I just got locks. And I love it so far. I feel so free. XD

Emily said… - Dont worry they'll lock up with patience. i think they usually start out loose. thanks :) I actually got the dreaded dread perm but they recovered from it ok, I wish I knew about twist and rip at the time..but thats life! we learn from our mistakes. I didnt use any wax or anything tho so thats good.
