Natural dreadlocks, from day 0

@soaring-eagle - I can see it now, might be because he has a private profile and I wasn’t following him before? I don’t know but I am now 😊 @femalepheromones - my undercut is like an inverted V shape at the back of my head, I don’t know if I was just squishing the hair at the back there a bit, I’ve been a bit restless sleeping recently, but the hair was becoming less sectioned and more one big webbed bit so I separated and cuffed them, hopefully it sorts it 👍🏻

To be honest everyone's different so I don't think there is really a rule for all but keeping on top of separating is definitely a good thing to be doing.

the faster it dreads the more u gotta separate in general

@tash tash & @soaring eagle  Seems some posts are not showing up... have checked my settings/profile etc and doesn't seem to be anything "private"  please advise

Hi everyone 😊 the 4 month mark for my hair came and went, feel like the time is flying now! I’ve been having to wear my hair up quite a bit for work recently, which hasn’t helped my sections at the back of my head that seemed to have been webbing together 😩 but I’m planning on open wrapping a few and having a go at making some beads this weekend, which will be fun 😊 if they turn out nice, I’ll take some photos! Might play around making some more wire decorations too, I want to make one with the little bells from the broken cat toy so that I can jiggle it and find Billy when he’s hiding 😂

Hope you’re all doing well, @gazzunger-the-grey - are your missing posts sorted yet? I can see the last one from 2 weeks ago.

@tashtash - not sure, haven't posted in while, thanks for asking.... hope this one works ). I hate having to wear hair up too,  mines been pretty windswept just lately

in the high winds, which i think is helping the dreads begin.  I fancy trying a few beads too, and see if that helps the knotting process..

@gazzunger-the-grey - I never made my beads in the end 🤦🏻‍♀️ But I did organise my craft supplies so I almost got there! I have those little metal cuff things that I’m using at the moment, they’re too big for my sections though so I overlap them on themselves so they don’t just slide right out. I don’t know if they’re helping the dreading, but they’re definitely helping to keep things separated at the back.

I have found my hair weeds out the people I want nothing to do with anyway, and has brought people into my life that accept me for exactly who I am. It has been very profound for me. I hope it brings you the same. The hardest part is just letting go.

@poopiepants - I suppose it is a good filter isn’t it? I remember when I started dressing goth (it’s not a phase, I just look great in black! 😂) I had a good friend of mine tell her boyfriend that they could ‘just walk in front of me and pretend they’re not with me’ when we were all going out as a group, because he didn’t want to be seen with a weirdo. We didn’t stay friends long after that! Well, that and her trying to get the demons prayed out of me! I suppose I’ve got a few filters already. I’m still working on the perfectionism thing, but I did go back to my dance class last for the first time in a few months, something that I’d been holding myself back from. It’s progress, the hardest part really is just letting go in many aspects. It’s a surrender, a sort of helplessness, but that’s just a different kind of brave. I hope your hair carries on being a great source of inspiration to you 😊

You probably have the same problem as me in the summer when you are always boiling because you only have black clothes.
