Hey guys, I love the site. I just started dreads Jan. 4th by backcombing with no product at all put in them. Since then I have washed about twice a week with the liquid Shampoo found through this site. I have also quit combing completely and am just letting it go. I read on here somewhere that wool helps so I have put wool over my pillow. I'm hoping my hair knots up before my sisters wedding in late may since she was the one who pushed me to do it. Any advice on how to speed it up? At this point most of mine have fallen out I would love to see some forward progress.

ok. so just mix some sea salt into water and spray it on? how do i get it to a certain percent salinity? sorry, i was absolutly terrible in chemestry.
about 1 tsp per 8 oz water. That's about what I do. Wash it out quickly though. I wouldn't leav it in more than an hour. Sometimes if I know I'm washing early in the morning I'll spray it on around 10 pm and wash it out around 8 am
awesome. thanks. how often should this be done? every time i wash? because that is when i have noticed the knots come undone more often.
I was once a week, so I do it once a week now
