im at 3 months now and i have just about nothing. nothing close to dreads. everythings fallen out and its just like straight hair that is barely together in strands. what the heck should I do? should i rebackcomb them and palmroll everyday or something? i have no idea. oh and my hair is about 6 inches long, so is that too short somehow for the neglect method??????????

im washing twice a week. right now with this non-residue shampoo i got from knottyboy.com.. once i run out i will just do the ACV/BS wash, because its cheaper and i did it a couple times and liked it. i use a hair dryer after i wash it. also i do sports, so i sweat a good bit. I will upload some pics later

I see the problem. You're suing knotty boy shampoo. I used it a few times when I first started this set. All it ever did for me was make my hair slicker and unable to knot up. Switch to either Dr. Bronners (if you have softer water), any dreadlockshampoo.com soap, or the BS/ACV wash.

And how are you drying, besides the blow drier? Are you rubbing your head with a towel?

cool. Yeah, I use the gel for the few new babies forming on top of my head. I love it.

But how do you dry besides the drier? towel?
