must have just been a discussion cuz i don't see a group. start one up!
nope here it is (was looking under S not I bah!)

Hi Ixchel, (very good goddess 
thanx for ur support. I had really thought I was having serious problems with this and being I hadn't had *short* hair ever, (since I was a wee tot) it has really affected me emotionally. But, now, I am feeling a lot better just having read all the replies you guys r sending. I am new (well not really but brand new as for posting on this website) so I might not have my posts in right places, so forgive me (everyone( if you're reading this. I just have to learn. still. lol...
but anyway, Ixchel, I read from on of the others replies here, the same thing about biotin, so I'm going to try that. 
also, I eat rosemary already so that's prob not bad that I'm doing that already.
Thanx again, take care,
Blessed Be!

don't fret this does happen with almost all dreads! it does vary by method & hair type how much shrinking you will have. but after the shrinking is over they will just not seem to be doing anything for a while & then grow grow GROW! It doesn't make you a wimp, I'm pretty sure I'll freak when I get there. This is the longest my hair has ever been & it hasn't really shrunk at all yet, straight hair & going natural so i'm expecting to loose a good chunk of length & it is the only thing about dreading that frightens me! you can help growth by eating/living healthy, taking biotin & i think i heard rosemary helps as well? but don't worry, hair will grow!
surprised you knew the name
glad you are finding you aren't alone in this, we are always here for support i totally get it being a big deal, like i said i'm sooo scared of the shrinkage to come lol. it'll really be a trial for me i'm sure, & it's not like i'm used to long hair or anything! & don't worry about posting wherever if it's really in a "wrong" spot SE can move it somewhere more appropriate. & navigating the site has a little bit of a learning curve it's fine, we've all been there
check out that shrinkage group for sure! maybe get it a little active & more lively in there. i know people were actually talking about boiled rosemary sprigs as a soak or something? may be something to look into a bit more at least.
