Did I do something wrong?

A week after I set up my dreads they started to kind of "Fluff up". But, soon after that, it just started to look less sectioned. Like its all normal hair just messy. The part that looks more like dreads are the under layers, especially in the back. I also noticed that the roots are a lot less knotted.Will this fix with time?

Did you backcomb?Sounds like if you did the backcomb effect is losing hold and now they are gonna just dread at their own pace.Dont re-backcomb if thats what you did. Either let it go or twist and rip.Do alot of saltwater rinses too. That helps me a ton.

The roots will be every changing on new locks I find.. the same roots that were loose on my dread are now more matted and begingin to dread... You just do the little you can day by day but in the end you kinda let it run it's course

yea backcombing tends to be relatively useless they will dread up the salt rinses will help alotu got a wool tam?

Sounds about normal. I have a pic somewhere of my second set when I first started them and they looked about like what you described.

Yeah, I should get a wool tam.A little bit ago, i was just randomly twirling my hair and it suddenly looked as it did last week (my profile pic) soaringeagle said:

yeah that sounds about right, I thought my hair was just one big fucking mess at that point.

So I guess I should do that a little bit every once in a while.BTW these are Twist and Rips soaringeagle said:

should i wouldnt say should i only did it kinda mindlessly while working a boring job and didnt even know i was doing it..if ya have a habbit of playin with your hair its ok as long as its not excessive.usualy y n r holds together better then backcomb but its still just a matter of it readjusting and finding its waysea salt and wool tam will do u the most goodyour also just a week or 2 in..they do alotta crazy things early on..just seperate em semi often and give em time.. in 2 months take a look at the progressby then you'll see what theyre doin better Fiend Jester said:
