so ive been dreading my hair for 1 month and am in need of help, i thought that using products was the way to go at first but found out after lots of research and this sight that i dont want to use products and keep up with the maintenance that the products require. so i dreaded my hair one month ago on april 13th, i back combed them by myself after sectioning them with a friend of mine, my hair was about 4/12 in the back and close to 3 1/2 or 4 in the front i used lock peppa when i back combed them and put ruberbands at the base and tips of the dreads which i still have in now, ive been using the lock peppa every once in a while and got some locking accelerator last week that i used once, and in the first 2 weeks i used a little bit of wax and i regret using the products so much, and i use residue free shampoo wich iw ant to switch out because its from dreadhead hq, so please help me with my dreadies tell em what i should from this point alll your help is greatly appretiated ill post up some pics here in a few minutes
