Stop using a towel then, i used it at first too then i got some black lint shit in some of my dreads so i just let them drip dry and after that its been ok. I think its lint from you towel.
Your dreads need air to dry not a towel
yea at first then i blow dry.

Do you dry your hair with a towel?
i just cut off 4 of my locks because they had this grayish white stuff in them and i was scared it was mold. when i cut the first one off and opened it. tons of lint just came out. How do i prevent my locks from being lint magnets?
i never do anything to my hair when it is wet. i just let it hang and air dry. but today i tried the blowdryer. some of my hair was still wet afterwards.

ura dont cut anything off!
well it depends under the right circumstances mold can haoppen fast 15 nin maybe an hour thats o[if they are all bound up in a tam with no airflow
Also i cut off the ends of 2 of my locks because i wanted to see what would happen. they were in that weird circular shape. is that bad if i cut all those little ringlets off? Also how long would it take for my hair to mold? I'm debating on blow drying it.
march 22nd will be my 11th month natural . things are going good. I'm thinking of blow drying my hair during winter and fall after i wash it. and also i need to wash ever 2-3 days because i play sports and it starts to stink real fast. 
So i have extremely oily hair and I've been naturally letting my dreads form and i wash them 2-3 days, but i don't want to wash them more than that. even then my hair is still oily. i read that if you sleep with a scarf or head wrap it will absorb the oil. is this permitted? Will this mess up anything? Also only the back of my hair hair is really dreading what do i do? 
sorry for all the questions just tired of my family saying to cut my hair it looks ugly.
ohh ok. i didn't know that. wow. i have been messing up then.

if its not dreaded why pull it apart
u pull apart 2 dreads so they dont become 1
not 2 sections that might want to e 1 dread if u do that your preventing it from dreading
let it dread then separate
I am on my 7th month and i am just waiting still. i feel like some of my hair isn't going to dread because after i shower i pull my hair apart so it doesn't Conjoin. Here is my progress. Also how do i post the picture instead of uploading it.
