Ten and half months in after backcombing.
Ive had my fair share of frustrations with loose hair and loose dreads, and am still having some frustrations, but ive accpeted my dreads for what they are and Im doing my best to love every little aspect of em.
The only thing im really waiting on is for my roots to start knotting, cuz right now theyre just hair
Ive found that straight lemon juice works as a pretty good tightener. Not as good as swimming in the ocean, but the dryness of the lemon helps to make them feel and look nice for the day. As well as making them very very blonde at the tips which youll see in the pictures.
Ive actually been wearing them tied back lately. Its be very hot aorund here, and I find that if i tie them back it keeps me from stressing over every stupid little, not tight, loose hair thingy. Plus its nice to change up how I wear them.
Any comments, criticzims or anything, feel free to throw em out.
Thanks for the opinions!
