congos, beaver tail, etc

Ive been trying to congo two dreads that are thinner than my liking and its been about 3 weeks and still nothing, they are separate as ever...I even put rubberbands in 3 places to hold them together and nada!What did u do to make them congo?

I'm no fan of beaver tails, but I do have two congos already that I love dearly. One was completely accidental, and the other I forced to congo, because one of the closer dreads was tiiiiny. It looked like I had ripped it in the wrong direction or something, causing it to become dangerously thin. It's all better now though... the two together makes for a nice chunky dread. ^-^

Yeah, eyeheartchrist needs lots of respect, hes the inspiration for a lot of us! my set is currently progressing pretty similarly to his, which im stoked about!

well, only one thing to say to that... Everyone's hair dreads differently!

mine just never seem to want to congo, not at all. I put beads on 2 dreads before and itys done nothing oh well im not bothered. PLus from all the loose hair iver been gathering on my head a few new tiny little dreads have been formed :D

actually i have tiny congo on the back from piece of loose hair i T&R and then molded it self on the neighbouring dread
