I am wondering if any natually curly/wavy do's gone dread can tell me how long it took until you realized you werent losing length any more? I've lost around 5 to 6 inches on some dreads in 3.5 months. I think I'm nearing the end of shrinkage but I need some faith!
i used the knotty boy tightening gel during the first few weeks of my dreads. (I also went through a freak out period and got the "emergency dread rescue kit" which I never used). The tightening gel I used seemed to help dry them out. It did seem like they were tighter but only right after I putthe gelin. The next day it was like I never used it. So I'd use more.. every day.. and the cycle repeated until i realized, this is how they make their money. I am still new, but I say save your money and just wait it out. I do think that it helped the congos to start.... which is when I got the rescue kit because i looked like i was growing like 3 giant dreads. but i grew some balls and got them seperated.i like the way my dreads feel much better without this goop.
