Hello all, its been about 7 months since i started the neglect method. My dreads locked up fairly quickly, and more than a few of them have the bunted tips at the end. Since i lost about half the length of my hair, i was wondering when they will stop shrinking and i'll actually see them start to grow again? I know everyone is different, but even some general ideas would be much appreciated :)

Hi Taylor. It sucks that we loose length for hair to dread. Know it needs to, but it still sucks. It takes about two years to notice growth. Our hair grows all through the journey, but because it is shrinking, we don't notice it. But by year two, most of us will have somewhat mature locks, so no more shrinking, just growth.

Forgot to mention, the longer the hair, the more shrinkage there is, so the appearance of growth will take longer.

Mine shrank for almost 2 years. But all of a sudden I started noticing length. Now they are growing like crazy. I also take 10,000 mcg of Biotin everyday. which helps with growth. My daughter tried to take it, but it made her face break out a little bit.

Biotin is a B-vitamin. You can purchase it anywhere that sells vitamins. It supports energy cell production. Good for hair health and growth. It is also a nail strengthener.

I am into, I think, my third year and I noticed my dreadlocks getting longer last December.
