Question about dread wrapping

Dread Maintenance

i have had a wrap in my hair for almost two years now and i dont see any weak spots around the wrap so i would say its fine. i dont time them to insanely tight though, they also loosen up in the wash though. with beads i move them around and what now but not on purpose just out of habit. i dont see a problem leaving them in one spot though seems like it would just protect it. hope i was some help!

my dreads at the root??? HELP!!!

Introduce Yourself

my dreads are almost two years old and they are doing the samething. i also twist a lot, most of the times i dont know i am doing it. the worst ones i have are in the front to....id look pretty silly if i lost those two. i dont know what to do but at least your not alone

Hair Ties?

Introduce Yourself

i have used one every weekday for two years, i just dont get tight ones, the only problem i have is i do get a crease where the hair tie is, it grows out though. i would not worry about it, dreads will grow

Flat Twisty dreads...

Dread Maintenance

i wear bandanas a lot because i am on a construction site, at the end of the day the ones in the back can get pretty flat...i have noticed that they become round again after i wash them. try not to worry they will do what they will do, i would not mess with them much it will all pan out

Life Issues Facing Dreads

In the past my dreads have been something that at first draws people in, but then eventually breaks us up. I think they view them as something exotic but temporary. When i got with the girl i am with now, i just straight up told her, you have to like dreads and beards and not just now but for the long run. She is super cool with it, i wake up to her playing with them or running her hands through them. It feels great to have someone who finally sees the beauty in dreads, she does not have any but its all good. Anyways its good to hear yalls stories i have always wondered if this kinda stuff is happening to anyone else

Lock Count

General Talk

i have 35 dreads, a few congos in there and some nice fat ones, yalls must be pretty thin to get into the 50s though
