Okay, yes - I agree, and Knottys & I have discussed back-combing before and I definitely learned from you, Knottys, that gentle b-c'ing is very different from harsh, aggressive back-combing (what used to be called "teasing"). When I did b-c'ing a couple of years ago (when first starting my dreads) I did it vigorously, according to...ta-da....the way a Knotty Boy stylist (form their salon) showed b-c'ing on a video.Knots, that wasn't a "rant" - you've given some excellent info. In fact YOU should do a video on the proper way to back-comb...seriously, you should.I think the key word is still patience. Patient t&r (non-aggressive) and patient b-c'ing (not vigorous).
