Directions/Crazy Colour
Dread Accessories
Anyone used these on their dreads. Are they too conditioning? I'm seven months into the ever evolving journey.

No , I rinsed th bs out first and then just rinsed with the acv afterwards. I didnt leave the acv on for long as Im only 6 months in so have baby dreadsThey do feel a teeny bit dry this morning, but I could be me being paranoid.. Should I use some aloe or cocoa butter do you think? or leave them be? The undreaded ends look and feel soft and shiny.

Do you reckon it will be ok though? My hair is already coloured, Im growing it out. I use about 1/3 cup to 3 pints of water.

Henna and baby dreads
General Questions
Hi SE, My hair is lighter than its natural colour at the moment. I was thinking of putting a stocking over sections and one over my scalp. Not sure if it would work but I don't know if henna would cause damage if it got trapped in dreads? Would it cause rot?
Not being able to use BS/ACV would be a pain wouldnt it?
Henna and baby dreads
General Questions
Hi, Started my dread journey about 9 weeks ago. I backcombed and then have just separated and washed with BS followed with ACV rinse. My hair has been chemically dyed for years but I dont want to do this anymore and would like to start using henna to darken my hair to get it nearer its natural colour.
Does anyone haveany experience of dying baby dreads with Henna. I thought if i tried dying them through a stocking it would stop the henna getting stuck. Also, would it be too conditioning?
Any advice would be great! xx

Can you not just make yourself look the part by wearing a scarf or bandana? It would be a real shame to lose your dreads x

Since I've started my dread journey I've had a complete stranger tell me I need to put wax in my hair. I also had a friend of a friend tell me I should crochet.
I just smile and say nothing...I love my messy head and think I will miss it when things get a bit tamer.
You know in your heart that you are doing things the right way and will have beautiful, unique dreads one day!

I wondering if your hubby is maybe feeling a little bit insecure. Did he look after you quite a bit during chemo etc? I don't know but I'm guessing that beating cancer has left you with a whole different outlook and maybe he finds that a bit scarey? You are alive and celebrating life. Enjoy your dreads...you deserve to enjoy them. He will just have to get used to them.:D xx
