Wrapping dreads.

If this is already in another discussion, I apologize. :| Ok, So I know HOW to wrap my dreads but I'm wondering if its too early to do it? I'm about 3-4 months into all natural dreads and I have several I think would look awesome wrapped. Also, what should I do about washing? Do I just leave the wrapped ones wrapped, or do I have to unwrap them when I wash? It seems like they wouldn't dry well if they were wrapped. Thanks in advance, guys! <3See More

About me

I am a 22 year old mother of 2.  I enjoy being outside and teaching my children about nature, spending time with my husband, movies, music, and arts and crafts. I hope to one day leave Babylon for some time and travel, although, that will be quite a way down the road.

I think its funny how some black folk are towards whites and black culture. People are messed up in every race. I do not know if we are every going to stop fighting. From a black brotha to a white sista, shake them dreads. Wear em proud.
