Question On Congo Separation
Dread Maintenance
So, should I try and condition those dreads and try and separate them back to individual dreads (IF that is even possible at this point) or just leave them?

My dreads were pre-sectioned because at the time I didn't know any better.
I have been more relaxed as of late on my separating, as a long term result, these two deads have started to congo. Are the two dreads pictured able to be separated again or would that be too damaging to them?
Ok, good to know. Guess when I have a formal event or an interview I'll buy it then.
Is the Magic Locking Gel that dreadlockshampoo.com sells worthwhile in the case of mature dreads? I don't really have too much loose hair anymore, so I am unsure how much extra benefit this gel would do for my hair. The description talks about it being good for the health of the hair, as sort of a food for dreads.
I am wondering if anyone with mature dreads has used it and what the results were.
Thanks!
I am using the bar, I might have overestimated when I said 2 inches. might be closer to an inch. Which I know is needed to dread. I bought the conditioner because I have sections of my dreads that have always seemed to feel very compact to me. I know they get dense with age, I am also looking to make my dreads feel a little softer and less scratchy to the touch.
So maybe I should spot treat with the conditioner then?
I made the switch this year to using the products made by dreadlocksshampoo, which this site promotes. ...I will save time by simply saying go out and buy them for yourself, the difference is real.
I bought a bottle of her conditioner (sadly not actually up on her site, the same story with the detox bar - my first purchase from her, it's what got me hooked.). My question is, I have pretty loose roots, maybe about max 2 inches undreaded, so is it better to condition starting where the dreads actually begin rather than putting the conditioner on my scalp and rinsing it through as I do normally with shampoo?
I separate on an infrequent basis, sometimes it's after my weekly wash, other times it's maybe once in any given month.
Well, the lines aren't still fully there, it's more like I can still sort of see the sectioning if I move my dreads, like if I am tying them back. While I am sure
So is it possible that it'd be closer to about maybe 6 more months or so before the lines are fully gone rather than about another year? (I know there isn't any real way to know for sure).
