I'm glad to hear your dreadies are safe :-D. I'm glad I don't have that issue, I look at old pics of me and really don't miss my old hair. Plus I don't think I could ever comb mine out, one I don't own a comb and two I wouldn't have the heart to
How do you make dreadlocks without wax???
Introduce Yourself
Exactly, the girl I was talking to was really impressed that I hadn't done anything but wash and separate them. I'm. Really glad I decided to go the all natural way, its the way I recommend, plus backcombing is so damagiing to the hair. Glad I found this site before I even started, it saved me a lot of trouble.

No she didn't use wax. I went with the natural way personally

Im not really sure how its done, but I know its possible I jus met a girl whose locks are a year and a half old and she did backcombing and didn't use wax

Dread Maintenance
I have the same type of hair, pre-dreading I had to wah it daily it was so oily once I started dreading though I washed every 2-3 days 4 at the very max and by then I was starting to feel icky. Now I'm almost on my 3rd month and my hair doesnt have to be washed nearly as often, now I wash it about twice a week, occasionally once a week if I'm not paying attention though. Just give it time, and yes dreading is a great experience to gain patience =)
Natural dreadlocks tips (post them here)
Dreading Methods
I started mine in January when I simply threw away my brush.I use sea slat water, wash with bs, separate when necessary and not really worry about them. I am 5 months in and am totally dreaded now they are jus maturing. I love watching them grow and change day by day. I am gunna miss the zigzags, those ones always make me smile
. I think the most important part is to just simply enjoy the journey.

Come to think of it its not an uncomfortable pull jus more that it doesn't pull back like all theway ( like doesn't cover the part) had to try and pull it back to remember. I jus quitbrushing, had them start congoing on me so spent a few hrs separating them a week ago now I jus have a bead on each one, I don't use bands and try not to put beads up on the roots

When I try to pull it back the front locks pull uncomfortably, I can pull it back in a low ponytail just not a high one. By part I mean the center part (well mine isn't exactly centered but slighty on the right)
