Introduce Yourself

Thanks everyone! Awesome info and tips :-) So I'm on day 6 and I should wash? I was scared it would come out. I'm not even sure how to wash and dry it properly, I'm reading up now though. I'm having a little fear of mold :-/

I just want to try and do as much 'right' the first time to avoid a second time!

Before I washed my hair once or twice a week. I a lot about palm rolling not being helpful, Good...I'm low maintenance and I don't see my self spending the time to mess with my hair all day. I do want them more round than flat though.

I live in South Florida, so pretty humid here. Right now my hair looks a mess, long strands and frizzies all over, plenty of broken fly away hair from the backcombing.

I'm working on the mantra:"what my hair is doing is normal and i accept that it's all part of the process."

Need to learn wrapping styles with scarves.

Introduce Yourself

Hey Ya'll :-) Glad I found this site. Here's my story :

I'm on Day 5 of my journey. I've wanted to dread my hair for awhile, years, but I couldn't with the job I had. I was able to change that, so I'm all good now. I went to a 'locktician' that does all hair types and a couple people I know use her. My hair was very straight...(I attached my last pic before dreading). I didn't use conditioner the last couple times I washed my 'before' hair. I have used all natural shampoo for years, so no chemicals. I did the backcombing and twisting...no wax,a little holding spray and since then just some sea salt spray I made today. I'm would like to be as natural as I can be. I'm thinking a month until my first wash. I know this isn't instant and will require lots of patience. I have long strands hanging and all types of fuzzies. I currently wish it didn't look as messy as it does, but o-well, it doesn't seem like crocheting is the way to go although it would give me instant gratification, I'm concerned about long term, like the rest of my life :-) I attached some pix, looking forward to learning and chatting with everyone.
