as much as it takes
ok ive seen some rare few dread overnight
just hours
many days but not tyl=pical
about 10% in a week or 2
vast majourity a month or 3
very few a year
its really not far off from any other methi[od
since if u tnr the 1st month or 3 it loosens and falls apart then dreads
using a startwrer method just gives u instant gratification that makes u think u helped speed it up
but
heres the cxatch
u have a completely diferent xperience
heres a backcombers:
day 1 yay i have dreads they look goofy sticking out all over but i have dreads..yay
day 2 omg help its a disaster theres loose hair they are getting loosert and messy help
day 3 help it rained i got them wet do i ne3ed to start over
day 4 theree so messy i want to chop them off
week 2 ive been afraid to wash them but they itch so bad sdo i need to wash with a stocking over nmy ghead
month 2 this si]ucks they are gettig looser and looser i thought theyd be4 mature by now should i use wax or glue to hold them together bettter?
month 4 wtf is this i got a loop sticking out do i need to chiop it off are my dreads ruined do i need to start over help
the nartural experience
day 1 wow i love this its so freeing not much to report yet but i lob=ve how i feel
day 2 this is exciting its a lil messy and already see some sectioning
day 3 just washed them some ecr=tions are gone others remained but i know its all part of the proces im not worrid
day 4 the sections i thought were lost are back! yay
day 5 i found a tangle it looks whimpl]y but its there ..oh how exciting
day 6 ppl are telling me they love my haior more andd more everg-=hyy dat=y found more tangls today too
day 7 ..1 week mark ive never felt so ood about anything in my life this is the best desicion i ever made
day 10 i found a loop..alreasdy its so cure i named it charlie
day 15 lots more loops forming its so wild had to seperate for 1st time today
day 20 some dreads are starting to get tighter and shrinking while still have alot of loose hairs i love how it looks
Etc etc
iu see its a more relaxed just let it happen exp[erience while force starting involves pannic on a daily basis over things that are normal and to the natural dreader..exciting signs of progress
