Sorry if there was already a post about this, but I don't see too much change lately? They started forming a lot in the back of my hair in the beginning, and I'll separate them (my hair is VERY thick and wavy though) and the top layer doesn't seem to be dreading, will that just happen later? Also, before I stumbled across this site about a week ago, I didn't know about baking soda rinse! Silly me.. so I ordered essential oils (tea tree, lavender, andcedar wood)from amazon but it could be another week or two before they even come in the mail... I had been using herbal essences shampoo (no conditioner obviously, except on my bangs because I didn't want those to dread yet.) I know, now, that shampoo conditions your hair to a certain degree. I feel like my hair is not as far along as some other people that I have seen at the one month mark. Do different people just dread at very different rates? Lately I haven't noticed much progress and I'm not sure if I have to start over or not? Or once I start using the baking soda rinse will I notice a difference? Also if I'm not doing something correct, please feel free to correct me. Thanks so much!
