is it ok to get my hair wet every day if i want natural dreadlocks?

just wondering i've been trying to dread for about four months now from a buzz cut, almost bald, and my hair is still pretty short, about six inches, and i'm not seeing any progress,i always wet my hair when i get in the shower so it isn't sticking out in all directions. i was just wondering if this is harming my progress. all information is welcome this is my first time dreading so i'm very new to this thanks for all your help.

wetting your hairs not a problem

but keepong it from sticking out in all directions might be

your trying to flatten it out and make it look neater which is preventing it from going wilsd and getting knotty

sure but u dont have to wet it every day u say your wetting it to get it to lie down why do that since letting it go wild wkll make it dread faster if tyou can wet it only when u wash or swim that will help

yes thats the problem, water. water is just anuisanceand serves no real purpose. all these man made things are tearing this delicate worldapart. Mankind didnt acually start drinking water until the late 1700's, and before that they lived just fine. This water is just a burden placed upon us that we must join forces to surpass its troubles.

that was not me it was a trol;l

yea best way to go u dont gotta avoid getting wet if it rains or u go swimming but intentionaly wetting ebery day doent make sense and might slow it a tad if your flattening it out as udo
