Yesterday was the nine week mark of the birth of my dreadlocks! I still love them just as much today as I did yesterday. I have some crazy zig-zags going on in the back and one loops thus far! I love watching the changes every day. As for my itchy head, It has completely stopped after I quit using the bar and only used the liquid shampoo.As far as other things in my life, I now know why I have been an emotional mess. I'm pregnant! My husband and I have been trying for quite some time. Our son…See More

About Me
Gasp I'm a hairstylist! HAHA I promise I don't bite though. I have just recently started my dreadlock journey, and decided to go with the twist and rip method. I had a co-worker help me out. I wanted dreads for YEARS, and I kept getting talked out of it. Until I recently decided no one was going to talk me out of it. I am so completely happy with my little dread babies I love them to pieces :)
How long have you been dreading?

Dreading methods, maintenance, and products used (if you currently have dreads)
I did twist and rip with no products used.

Re-doing the future...

Please bare with me as blogging is not my greatest talent. Opening up and expressing myself has always been something I'm not great at either. This week has been a tough one for me, so this will most likely be a venting blog. A apologize ahead of time for this blog having no point, and also for it's randomness. I have honestly debated for a long time about whether to post this or not. I ultimately decided to because I thought maybe there would be at least person that can relate.

I know I must not be the only one who's hair gets stared at everywhere I go, but it sure feels like it. HAHA. Most days I just ignore the fact the everyone in the room is staring at my hair. It's funny how the minute I glance at them they quickly look away, like they are trying to hide the fact that they were just staring at me for what seems like hours. It's rare when someone says "hey I like your hair" or "wow your dreads are cool" or "you look good with dreads". So this is my question, I…

My crappy sections...

Posted on May 17, 2012 at 11:17pm 11 Comments

So as most of you know, I started my dreads as a partial head. I still had A LOT of loose hair in the beginning. Because of the way I started them as a partial, sectioning perfectly never crossed my mind. I literally just grabbed hair and twist and ripped it. Never thought twice about it until now that my whole head has been finished for about 2 weeks now. My sections are all woven together and they all want to congo. I spend a lot of time trying to separate them, and when I don't separate…

all mty dreads i didnt section so the bases are all diferent shapes  what yiu will find is they can go flat from layiong on them but then as u roll around they tend to get more round over time..usualy thio some may stay flat or have flat spots the thing is the 1's that refuse to go round wll be your faves cause they arent round

alotta ppl spend a hell of alot of time trying to make every dread "perfect

' then find the 1 that refused to behave and look exactly like all the rest is the 1 they like the most

Yay!  Yeah, I am always down for meeting new people and making new friends... and new experiences.  :P

It was great bouncing around ideas in your thread and speaking as a past student of the art of hair, I completely understand the reasoning for bring that topic forward.  Even though I didn't make the career move, I still felt the sting from the negativity because it's a reputation based on misinformation.  Perhaps there are other hair dressers on this site that can join in on the educational project to bring the word further outward?

Blessed Be!
