I have a few pretty thick. What do you mean by separating them after wash?

I checked out the pics and they look like there gonna be pretty phat. I like them but the thicker they are the longer they'll take to dry. Ur only 4mths in and still have a ways to go. If that were my set I'd leave them alone other than serparating after washing. Just my opinion.....
Thing is my friend did them in a way that breaks the hair of the root a bit. The way eh does breaks the hair too much i believe, so removing them i will end up with less hair. I've been growing it for 4 years, it's not really like i can start all over again without shaving it all off.

20 will end up really thick
measure the section size at the scalp
if over an ich u might want to start over making 2 out of each (or more)
That makes me really sad : (

Oh my god your dreads are beautiful. Why did you think of that?
If you see my dreads they are very messy . However, I really love them.A lot of people ask me if I wash my hair or you should cut it because it looks like a crap.
But I believe in my hair and I believe myself. You should love your dreads:)
I wash them about 3 times a week but only use shampoo twice. I think i should be using some kind of baking soda instead of regular shampoo : ( When I'm washing, I focus the shampoo more on the roots instead of the dreads themselves.
I usually dry them up pretty nicely. If I'm not going out after showering, I usually open the windows on my bedroom and constantly shake them up and use a towel, until they're dry. I don't have problems with smell or anything like that
thanks! I say neglect because I haven't touched them in 3 months, but I did some crocheting on the first month

they are fine
how did you "do them' your page says neglect but sounds like you did tnr
ignore people
people think your only doing it right if they are waxy or damaged and instantly look like dreads.. your on the right path and they are just babies
you dont tell someone "your childs all wrong he looks deformed you should put him out of his mnisery"
cause he looks like this
not this
at just 2 weeks old
we all faced critisism
people who knew nothing about dreads telling us we were doing them wrong
but then a year or 2 later they will rave about how awesome yoirs look
just let them grow up to be awesome mature locks on thier own
I did all my back dreads about 4 months ago and the 4 front ones a week ago. I don't know if they look good or bad, but personally I don't think they work very well for me and im thinking of shaving it all off, but I might be a little paranoid concerning this : ( There have been people that say they look alright and others that say they don't.
I wonder if reddit could give me an honest opinion , good or bad, i just wish for an honest opinion if you could help me, thank you!
