1srt off why are u taking them out? u will regret it unless its to start over due to wax/cxrochet

ok take a ton of cheap conditioner or olive oil soak em good

comb or brush out from thre tip up slowly and gently try using a sogft bristkle brush for the most part a comb for the tough spots

if u reach a point thats too tight to get out glob on more conditioner/oil and leave in overnight moving on the a new dread

it can take hours or days or more to remove em go slow and gentle

but think about it b4 u do

u will go into dread loss depression..its traumatizingt

I know :/ it's just the situation I'm in I can't keep them cleaned properly because I'm working around dust and dirt and shit. and somehow a ton of lint got meshed into them and it's super gross. they were coming along great too
