Help! Save My Dreads
So, I know you get issues like these a lot on here - loving the forums btw - like most, I just wish I'd found you guys sooner.My friend and I went through the blisters, heartache and scalp ache of 13 hours of Christmas movies and back combing hair, using the dreaded (haha) Dreadhead HQ kit.We back combed, waxed, blow dried. I wore tights on my head to bed for the first couple of months and was happy with the 'progress'.I skimped on the waxing because I hated the sticky feeling, but I otherwise rolled etc. following Dreadhead HQ's advice.Now I have been on the road travelling Asia for 5 months and I stumbled upon the BC&AV rinse to replace my shampoo. Tried it and loved it, which led me to investigate more and find you guys.Anyway, now I have another 13 months of travelling (at least) ahead of me, I am contending with smelly dreads, that undoubtedly have some wax in the middle and am changing between humid climates - where my hair never dries - to dry - where I itch like a mofoSo, I am unsure whether salvaging the 'dreads' I have is worth it on the road, or whether to shave and start from scratch.Any thoughts feelings and suggestions are welcome.Thanks for the forums,James
