Litzalocks

HI! My name is Liz but on the internet i go by Litzalocks. I started putting dreads in my hair after years of wanting them on June 22 2019! I have 48 dreads with sections ranging from 1 1/4 inches to 1 1/2 inches thick! I intentionally made them bigger and kept some at the front thinner. I used a brick lay sectioning pattern, but kinda did grab and goo as well in a sense that i didn't use a measuring tool i just kinda winged it especially at the back. I separate them right now when it needs to be done. I don't do it too much because i don't want to risk the roots thinning out from being pulled out. I started with hair that was mid chest/nip length and it is now above my shoulders (except in the back I'm kinda rocking a dread mullet)

I do not use a dread shampoo or a residue free one. I use Tsal and every other wash i use Denorex Max Strength because i have psoriasis and dont want to risk weening off of it and psoriasis popping back up. When I've finished my treatment i will be using Tsal exclusively.

ABOUT ME: I am 19 years old girl from Louisiana! I am on both the Autism spectrum and Schizo spectrum with my mental health. I finished highschool but dropped out of college first semester last year because i couldn't handle the new social situation. I was diagnosed with autism only a few days ago as of today (8/5/19) and never received proper treatment. I believe and hope I will get well enough to try again

I am wiccan, I play the native American Flute, I love video games (specifically pokemon and skyrim,) I am a Dungeons and Dragons Fanatic, and ,love fantasy novels so much I write my own for fun and i hope to publish some one day!

welcome

your dreads look good better then expected considering how they began

as far as  the spectrum goes, the spectrums wide and diverse. don't let the diagnosis affect how  you see yourself

as for the psoriasis the patchoily dread shampoo will fix that. the others your using are ..well not that great, i dont know the specific ingredienjts in tho9wse but others like it are pretty toxic

they also have an ingredient that might just be causing it

I wasn't using it when I was diagnosed with it! I started using it years after and it's actually the most useful for clearing it up. PSORIASIS comes from the inside, it's an immune issue not just a skin issue. when you have psoriasis, your skin cells reproduce faster than they can die off which causes the thick scales to form. The menthol and coal tar in denorex create a chemical reaction in your skin cells to force them to stop reproducing at such an abnormal rate and relieve the pain and itchy mess it causes. Regualar dandruff shampoos can claim to help psoriasis but very few that aren't medicated actually do because of the nature of the condition.
