Hello, my name is Gem and I live in Reading, UK. I'm a fashion designer and a massive hippy with 8 year old lovely dreadies that are currently green and pink, but they have been all sorts of colours.
I found this forum as recently my dreads have started to be a bit thin, but I think I now have the ammo I need to fix them thanks to this website. I unfortunately started my dreadlocks the evil Knotty Boy way and I know they are thin now partly due to this, but mainly due to my stupid idea that getting them "maintained" before my wedding 3 years ago would be a good idea and they are now breaking and going thin where they were tightened. Worst thing I have ever done. So yeah I learned the hard way and now I just wash my dreads once a week and just leave them to it and they are already starting to look better with a few new baby dreads growing through now too.
So anyway, I hope to make a few friends and drool over all the beautiful hair on this website. Please don't judge me on my past stupidity 
Gem xx
