Dreading Methods

Unless you want a big ass uni-dread.

Getting discouraged with progress. suggestions?

Dreading Methods

Well dude it just depends. I wash my hair 2 times a week. any less and it gets all stinky and oily. no two people have the same scalp so you cant really tell.

honestly you should try to wash less often because twice a week is a bit much and may slow down the locking process, I use apple cider vinegar and I only wash at least every two weeks or sometimes go beyond that and my hair remains very clean which allows me to just sit back n let the dreading happen

Only reason it would reek is because whoever is making it reek doesnt know how to portion it out right. Too much of that stuff and yeah I agree it can put a hurt on your nose, just enough and its very relaxing and pleasant to be around.

I know what you mean, its in the upper 90's and sometimes reaching 100 here. I wash daily sometimes but just make sure to not get use to it. Also swimmin is good for locks and tangles
