Vicki no longer shipping to the UK :(

@gazzunger-the-grey Has it really been that long?

It was just that people posting on this forum is so sporadic I would find myself checking it quite frequently to see no one had posted so ended up just not even checking anymore.

The problem I had when I cut them was that some of them ended up completely untangling and then because the hair was so short they didn't want to dread again so it actually left me quite frustrated for a while. They seem to be back on their way again now though but it is a bit weird as about half are properly dreaded now but the other half are only babies. I do wonder sometimes what they would be like now if I hadn't cut the balls off but I think I would just have much bigger balls.

If I remember I'll try to post some pictures over the weekend.

Hi everyone, long time no see.

Haven't been on here for a while and just came to order some shampoo and noticed Vicky isn't shipping to the UK anymore.

Does anyone know of a good alternative that is available in the UK? I have used Dollylocks before but didn't find it as good as Vicky's. Saying that it's better than nothing if there are no other options but surely there has to be something out there!

Tying up new dreads?

@peaceful-passer I think you're thinking of a tam.

Just use a bit of ribbon or lace and tie it around loosely.

Mate I can't remember anything. Posts on here are so sporadic that I always forget who said what and when.

From what I understand palm rolling does nothing except for weakening the roots. It might flatten some frizzy hairs down for a while but they will soon pop back up.

I was in a similar position to you after I combed out my crocheted "dreads" I tried free form for 6 months and my hair was kind of sectioning but not locking up at all. I then saw photos of @bazooka_guru 's twist and rip dreads and thought they looked awesome so fuck it let's give it a go. Like I say I used the sections that were already kind of forming so they were all kind of random sizes and not in any sort of grid pattern that a lot of people seem to go for so they actually seem a bit more natural anyway. Also make sure you buy this shampoo:

From the first time I used that shampoo on my hair after doing twist and rip things started to happen. It really makes all the difference.

My dreads suck a** (with pictures)

IT actually looks like you've still got a decent amount of volume in your hair which is good. Glad you're happier now.

If you're going to brush your hair out anyway you may as well give twist and rip a go. Worse comes to worse you could then just brush them out like you were going to do anyway.

What would happen if I combed my hair?

Dread Maintenance

Fair enough. It was worth it to get them properly clean then. I have heard bad things about ACV though. I know for sure Soaring Eagle tells everyone to stay away from it.

Why did you brush them out?!

Your hair looked lush in that first pic.
