I want to start dreading my hair and I want to do it without wax and without rubberbands but I don't want to go entirely freeform.
I prefer tighter thinner dreads rather than thicker freeform dreads, so I was going to separate into sections and backcomb and then I heard from a couple of people that if you occasionally crochet the loose hairs at the roots and throughout dreads into the dread with a crochet hook that it will give you tighter dreads, is this true or a waste time?
I know, I know, freeform is the best most healthy way but I do not want to go entirely freeform, my mind is already set on guiding my dreads into the form I want them, I dont want to use a dread perm or wax or rubberbands or anything like that and I dont mind waiting the time for them to mature as I am a stay at home mom and have no one but my 3 year old to impress but in the long run I want thin tight dreads and would like to be on the right path to obtaining these, advice?
Also Dr.Bonner tea bar soap a good soap for washing?
