Im just now leaving my 6th month so I guess you could say its my 7th. I retwist my dreads just about every 2-3 weeks. im not really sure how they should look right about this time so i came for guidance.
i wash them every 2 weeks but ive been told that i should do it every month. That same person also said just "let em chill". He feels I retwist them too often and they arent dreading because of that.
any suggestions?
u do retwist way too often u never want to retwist at all retwistings very bad and u want to wash them more often not less often
but stop retwisting completely
why are u twisting at all? twistings only for african hair
u should be washing way more

They look pretty good so far! Your friend is right to an extent..you just gotta let em' ride. They'll do their thing and form. I would probably wash once every 3 weeks and retwist after that...that's what worked for me..

and when you say African does that include African American Also cause i am African American O.o lol
they just dread washing helps dreads dread hair dreads by leavung it alone
where do u think dreads came from? salons? no dreads came from not using combs ..by letting the hair do what it wants ti do hair dreadss that is the natural state of hair
