Please advise....


Dread Maintenance

My dreads are 4 days shy of being 5 months old. I originally got them done through the double twist method and for about 3.5 months was getting the new growth crocheted about ever 6 weeks. after that I would just palm roll them without using anysort of product of any kind in my hair accept for Jamaican mango and lime shampoo and conditioner about once a week and ive been doing that for about a month a half now. This brand is the only dread care line available in my "remote" city

I wash so often cause I live in a very harsh and dry sub artic climat (Anchorage, AK.) My dreadies havent suffered much but my already persitant dry scalp has and not washing for more than a week and a half is just about unbearable.

Ok to my perdicament. After about 5 months most of my dreads are better off than others. Some feel as they should from near root to tip, but others especialy my bangs and some on the sides of my head are forming rather slow. The tips of them are still farely loose and i have to palm roll them every morning just so they look presentable seeing how i dont much like wearing hats anymore. I also have a problem with loose hairs rearing their ugly faces randomly.

Can anyone offer any advice as to what im doing wrong and slash or right?

Should i just leave em alone and let them be?

Please advise :)

P.s. not sure if pictures convey my supossed plight...
