I've decided to section out my bangs and continue styling them until they are comfortably long for me to turn into dreads (if I want to in the end)The rest of my hair was dreaded a month ago using backcombing and palmrolling method, since then I've done nothing but rip the dreads apartI wear a tam constantly because my hair is a huge mess. I have a lot of loose hair but I'm not worried about it at all - kinda looks cool for now 
I don't like to wear it to sleep though, just cos i like to see how they turn out in the morning lol. is it true that tams help with knotting? I just don't know why it would because a lot of you guys said putting it in a ponytail or something doesnt help, and I just feel like a tam is doing even more restricting then a ponytail :sAll of my dreads are completely flat though. I know they round out on their own, I'm just wondering what was your experience? how long did it take for them to round?I wash my hair 2-3 times a week and I just use a bar of tea tree oil and spray sea salt water in my hair maybe once a week (heard it dries out black hair). i couldnt find any rosemary stuff and my mom told me baking soda would leave residue on my hair or something. is it true?i added a couple pictures of the progress so far - and i showed one of my flat dreads. what do you think? am i doing good?
