I too wish I started 20 years ago, hell, 30 years ago, ours would now look like Soaring Eagles. Some days are really hard during the first year, those are the days I just put on a tam if I had to go out. . Your journey is going great, all that looping action! Hang tough, don't look in mirrors on down days and just envision them at the 3 year mark, this got me through it every time. Your sections are on a wild fun ride, fasten your seat belt and enjoy it....Peace

Thank you thank you thank you to all of you ladies. I prob wouldnt lament as much if I had started doing this ten years and fifty pounds ago. In my head I am still a young woman all giddy and excited about this. But then I see the chick in the pics and I wonder what the hell made me decide to dread!!! It is happening so quickly and I cant get used to the exposure my skin has with no hair around!!!BUT they sure feel wicked awesomeand I don't have many mirrors so I will shut up.

You can see all the sections coming along beautifully. Hang in there and you will have some killer dreads
