Dread Products
I use it str8 off the plant, can't get much more 100% then that. I use it usually when my dreads are dry and just apply to my scalp the smell can be a little strong at first but goes away in 15 minutes. Don't leave it in your hair to long might grow mold mould.

Looking good I think you look beautiful with dreads or without. I like the dreads you dyed red, keep strong sister and keep them growing.
dish soap.
Dread Maintenance
I used Dawn dishsoap once, I forget why I guess I thought it might help. It did a little, but I dilluted it and rinsed for 30-40 minutes= alot of water. I still felt soap inside my dreads and they kind of had a weird smell to them. after that I think I just rinsed my hair the next 3 times and then did a AppleCidarVinegar rinse.How often do you wash your hair?

Baking Soda seemed to help knot up my hair, I guess it kind of is like salt. just keep them clean.
how people percieve someone with dreads
General Talk
This is what alot of snobby rich people think about dreadlocks where I live.They think ppl with dreads are dirty, because they think that you cant wash dreads. They also think that dreadheads are druggies, but I just smile and kill them with kindness. Some girls I meet love my dreads, and some think there gross, even tho they are clean as hell. Thats just the way life is, you can't please everyone.
wondering how I should feel about life right now
Introduce Yourself
I've been in several "circle of friends" type groups when I was in highschool burned alot of bridges alot of fights and name calling. I stayed in isolation for a 3 years, I just didn't really care to face anyone and I guess I was depressed or something. But I got better and kind of figured I can't really blame any of my problems on anybody else except myself. Through all that bull I think I the only people I could really count on was my family, as much as i dislike my family but its true. I have a few friends that I really consider geniune good friends, that if I do a favor or they do a favor for me. Then I have friends that are nice, but don't really do anything for me.As far as meeting new friends, I think you just have to be yourself, vs having a fake plastic smile persona that ppl see right thru like a act.- not saying you do but I've seen alot of false acting ppl in my life. that just do stuff or act a way to be liked.Don't compare yourself to other people it will only make you angry or jealous. We're all kind of the same. But we all have been delt different cards to play.I also get the feeling that your still in High School, I see maybe 5 ppl i went to High school with, be prepared to never see or hear from 95% of your graduating class.Maybe you have social axiety or something. good luck

General Questions
I used to do alot of painting interior and outside, its alot of hardwork. It's also pretty dirty with paints chips, drywall dust flying every where. When I do dirty jobs I usually take a t-shirt I dont like to much, and drape it over head and use the sleeve of the shirt and tye it around my head, and then put a tam on, or sometimes I just use the t-shirt if its hot out.I would try ACV and Baking soda, like SE said. or if that doesnt work I would use dishwashing soap diluted in hot water for extra cleanlyness. just make sure the dishwashing soap chemicals arent to harsh. It's good enough for my dishes, its good enough for my hair. Even if you dont use dishwashing soap, eventruly after a few washes dust and stuff with break down and go away. keep your head up.
