dreading the tips

Matthew I agree no need for names

You're right, they do take FOREVER to dry, but it's a price you have to pay to make them blunted. As I said before, I've given up all maintenance on mine. I was simply suggesting a method to make them blunted. In my opinion, calling someone a negative name is not being friendly. Despite what he does, promotes, sells, he's still a fellow dreadhead, and a brother to all. Just because he did his dreads a certain way, doesn't mean he should be frowned upon. I don't endorse wax in any way, but I'll never look down on someone who used it. It's their choice, and our responsibility to advise people on being natural with their hair, not shove our opinions down their throats.

Anyway, AGAIN, I was simply suggesting a method to make ends blunted, he doesn't have to agree, or listen to me. If he wants his dreads to look, "fake" then so be it. His choice, not ours. We can only advise.

With that said, sorry if I had offended someone. SE is indeed quite friendly. I mean, he did create this, and has nothing to really gain from this. His dreads are fully mature, and look amazing. He's simply here to help out, and advise. (:

johny dirty is the 1 person whos done the most harm to the dready community
and i dont see how anything i said is unfreindly

friendly advice
forcing blunted ends results in fake looking dreads you might as well get a dreadwig
if they blunt on theyre own they blunt naturaly and look normal
but forced bluntness is so odvios and looks fake
dreads normaly grow organicly and differently for every person, which means some hair types will blunt easily naturaly, others wouldnt andf shouldnt
your better off if they dont
i have 5 or 6 that did and they take 3 times as long to dry ..water just pools in the tips refusing to drip out

ya was thinking talkin bout issues not ppl is better


on ends..i love the organic rootlike ends
ive had some wear n tear on mine since they hit the ground get tripped over wrapped round axels run over caught on and in ecverything ...i lost 8 inch to a foot off most
but i love how every 1 ends differently

I think that the best part about dreads is that they are all different, there will never be two the same.

I have to admit though, at first it made me freak out a little bit that my hair wasnt forming uniformly, but now I've embraced it and I think it's awesome to watch them grow, form, loop, and do their thing

I was a little disappointed at first with how my dreads are curling a bit, kinda like spirals. But then I realized how much I love spirals. After all spirals are infinite circles. Cycling and cycling and never meeting. Plus the tips kinda come down sharp and slightly bent like dragon claws.
I really love whats going on up there and I can't wait to see what happens next
