hello again, over 2 years later :)

Introduce Yourself

i have an intro post on here from 2011, but i figured its been so long since i've posted on here i would make a new one. i'm Cydney, sometimes called Koala, a dready burner living in the Dallas, TX area. I grew up in Austin, lived in Denver for awhile and then traveled/hitchhiked for 6 months or so before coming back to Texas. The last time I posted on here by dreads were babies, and now they are 2 years and 8 months old. I backcombed them in, but have not done any maintenance since. This picture was taken a few nights ago:

Hey I'm Cydney, been lurking on this site for a few months. Live right outside of Denver, CO (originally from Austin, TX). Been on the dread journey for about 2 months now and loving them so far! I am also a hooper up in the area and am quite in love with my hula hoop, so I figured I would mention it. Here is some pictures of how my dreads are looking right at this moment:

broken dread??

Help! Save My Dreads

well last thursday night me and my now ex got into a really bad fight. i was blackout drunk for alot of it, but he did break all my hula hoops and my laptop and also choked me at one point of the night. i'm starting to think he may have grabbed that section of my hair and ripped it since there is two right next to eachother and nowhere else. kinda personal to go into on a message board but i'm gonna decide this is probably what happened and i just didn't notice it until last night...

i hope my hair isn't just falling off anyway! lol. its kind of connected into the roots of 2 other dreads, and so is the other one, i'm just gonna let them grow into those dreads. my friend adrian said it wasn't even noticeable when you looked at that part of my head. when i touch it though it really does feel like i'm missing a patch of hair

and i don't think it shrunk up considering its literally several inches shorter than the rest of my dreads. that piece is only a few inches long and the rest of my hair comes down to my shoulders. it looks like part of the dread was ripped from it, i'm wondering if my hair got pulled hard recently and i'm just not remembering.

no i didn't blunt any tips, in fact all the lower parts of my dreads are just completely loose still (just starting to loop up and starting to dread in), i didnt even backcomb the ends at all just left them to dread themselves. so because of this most of my dreads are pretty damn tight at the top and then loose at the bottom and all my ends are basically still just regular combed hair. theres a few that are almost pretty tight all the way thru but very few.

didn't use rubber bands at all.

yeah it almost looks like part of my dread was just cut off from it or something its weird. like the loose hair from my dread was just completely separated from the tight part on the top. theres another skinner blunt tip that look like it lost a dread too right next to it just alot smaller.

i never did anything other than backcombing and i did that maybe 3 times...but the last time i did it was at the very end of august and this must have just now happened. i probably palm rolled a few times more than that though, but its still been awhile since i've done that either. and whats weird now is i washed my hair and that piece is still soaking wet when the rest of my hair is just kind of damp. i cant believe i wouldn't notice a large chunk of dread falling off my head?? i mean thats several inches missing off that piece. do you think its possible when i was seperating roots once i accidentally ripped it from the dread next to it? because theres hole in the roots of the dread next to it and it looks way way weaker than the rest of my dreads.
