started twist n rip on some sections that are separating themselves out. i have seven baby dreads now! yay! can't wait to see how they all tell me where they want to be! its going to be a process, but isn't life more about the journey than the destination? I gave low residue shampoo, but my hair is pretty fine and slippery. aside from washing it with a bar of ivory, does anyone have any suggestions? keeping in mind I'm a student on a small'rural' island in the middle of the pacific. we do have walmart , hideous side effect of tourism as it is...., safeway, and longs drugs as well as wholefoods market and several holistic, organic, hempy, little markets with local and non local herbal organic hygeine and cosmetic products. I thought someone mentioned Dr. Bonner's Pure Castille Soap? does it work well? how is dreadshampoo or bar soap better or more appropriate than Dr. B's? I have oily roots and dry ends. I don't want to dry them worse....I'm thinking a sea salt rinse would be fine after just about any low residue shampoo. is this a bad ide? why?ok. that's probably enough questions for now. thanks so much for your input.Stacey.
