more hair on one side

Dreading Methods

Thanx for covering all my questions, what do you mean by number 5?Luckily I knew that I must be carefull not to make my dreads to thick.. I also prefer thinner ones. And also I got a huge head with PLENTY of hair so I thought I would rather have more bt thinner. I know I can probably find the answer to the next question but anyways... What the best to do for white hair if not palm rolling? Surely I must do something to get them to tighten and smoothen out? I will post pics tomorrow of the sizes of my sections. I haven't really bought any special shampoos, but I find my head starts to itch after a week of no washing.. Been looking on internet for what I can use to wash my hair, that a) doesn't leave residues and b) that isn't a speciality product that will coast me money.So at them moment I am using sodium bicarb to clean and then just a lil apple cider vinegar. Any thoughts on this? It seems to work quite well

more hair on one side

Dreading Methods

Hi all,This is my first post... Because I started my dreads two weeks ago:)So here's my story, my hair was about down to my lips before I dreaded my hair, slightly shorter around the sides and the back. I would of liked to wait for my hair to be a bit longer before starting, but I was getting irritated with my hair blowing in my eyes etc...so I wanted to find a hair salon that can backcomb for me, but couldn't find one, so I decided to do it myself without any help. Wish I had eyes at the back of my head but anyways.Ok, so first of all, I didn't really section my hair properly, just grabbed a group of hair that was close together and started. My dreads are definately not all the same size. But just to be clear.. I didn't really intend to have neat, systematic dreads, but rather more rustic looking. I am worried tho, that without me sectioning properly, some hair in one dread have roots near another, if you know what I mean.Another thing is that I have hairs that are part of a dread but are sort of loose..(All the hairs didint get notted when I backcombed.) I am not using any wax or anything, will these entangle eventually. I do palm roll quite often.Lastly,, strangely it seems to me that I have a lot more hair to work with on the left side compared to the right. The hair is the same length but the dreads are fewer and thinner. Why could this be? Also, I am white, but my hair is very thick and is quite curly.I apologise for the lengthly post, but I apreciate any advice. Thanx!

What is the quickest way to get rid of Lice period , dreadlocks or not.

Dread Maintenance

Is it only the 'surgical alcohol' .. Or what they call it? Or could a high percentage drinking alcohol work aswel. I've never had lice.... And hope I don't get. Is it most commna in young children?
