oh and that shamppoo i wouldnt use

u said its too short for a headband how short is it thats most likely the problem..let it grow

I was my hair about twice each week like was it on monday then wash it again on friday.

I had that problem with the back of my dreads and I think it was because I was washed them too often. I quit doing it so often and they're finally starting to knot up a little now. How often to you wash your hair?

Ok i'll get rid of the hook andI'm not doing anything to the top of my head.I wash with T/Sal shampoo to get rid of the build up on my scalp. I dry my dreads by putting them in a towel for about 2 minutes. And my dreads are to short to put up I put a headband in.

letg it dread crochet is extremely bad for dreads but my conceern is why it hasant dreaded already what are u doing to prevent it how are u washing with what how are u dryimg are u wearing it up akll the time etc

throw the crochet hook away!
