Comb out dreadlocks or keep them, that is the question
Dread Maintenance
Thanks Claire. They are quite dry from all of the sea salt. I guess that means more ACV and less BS?? Not sure.I have aloe plant out front. I could try that.

Comb out dreadlocks or keep them, that is the question
Dread Maintenance
My baby dreads are 3 weeks old and are doing very well, however, I am tempted to comb them out. I think this is a request for a pep talk! I am doubting myself. My husband doesn't like them and neither do most of my friends. Am I just too old for dreads? (I'm 51) I get really strange looks when I go out, you'd think living in Florida dreads would be more acceptable! Speaking of Florida, I'm at the beach almost every day and I'm always afraid I'm damaging my hair, too much salt, not enough BS, too much BS, not enough ACV, rinse after the beach, wash after the beach, mold? too much water?? I'm a mess.

Thank you. I was able to get what I wanted out. I was surprised at how tight they were at only 2 1/2 weeks!

I'm only about 2 1/2 weeks into my dread journey but I think I want to comb out just a couple in the front for bangs. What's the easiest way to do it? I guess I should have thought of that before doing it!

Baby dreads and the beach
General Questions
I love the beach and go about 5 times a week.... I had the same questions last week. 
I judged it on how my hair felt, some days I left it alone that day and washed with baking soda the next morning, other days I just rinsed it out with water when I got home from the beach.

General Questions
Yes, the salt water is good for them. My dreads are babies still at only about 2 1/2 weeks and going to the beach has really helped them.
Have fun!
