zak'n'dreads

1st week of March 2017 : my hair is around 3 inches long (8cm) when extended from the root. has been growing from scratch since july 2016. dread journey started on late december. so this is my third month in the journey. kinky hair type, very fragile and dry. shampoo every sunday, shampoo base + drops of tea tree + drops of rosemary. water washing when showering on other days. no towels used for drying

                                    

pics : 3 months progress, random angles, taken from very close. So how's it looking? im not sure since my hair is still very short for now on top of curling. seems more like having a bunch of springs rather than dreading

that's it sectioning and starting to dread

they are tangling up and will soon (relatively) start to compress and tighten.

so far so good

what's the shampoo base though?

im in france, soon ill be in morocco for a couple years

6 months progress. wet hair after shower. not sure what to make of this, but seems fine to me for now. All i do is shampoo em once a week, water wash every couple days, and run my fingers through it from time to time to separate big congos, while it s at an early stage.
