Let's burn a candle for all dreads lost by wax.

Smells really nice, and I thought it would die once it would hit the wax. But it's still going strong.

If your going to live in Africa don't take anything against Malaria. I know docs will advice to do so, but pumping you body full of medicine on a daily basis to prevent malaria is much worse then taking one trip of medicine to cure it once you do get it.I walked around Africa for years and only got it a few times, you get used to it.The thing that gave me the worst hair lost was the medicine against the bugs housing and hatching eggs in ma belly.Ethiopia is great, but can complicated when it comes to being there as a forengie (especially with dreads). Be very careful in the way you expose yourself as a Rastafari, Rasta, or just a dready.They have seen to many Sean Paul's claiming Ethiopia as their home and being a dick about it.Ahhhh,..... this brings back memories.

I actually think the problem is a combo of the was and soap from DreadheadHQ.Look at the picture below at the amount of stuff that was locked somewhere in my dreads.All tests I have seen were done with putting in the wax and taking it out straight away. Not walking around with it for a week.

Hi all,So my first set of dreads started back in 1999. While travelling through Africa my hair started to get longer, and after a while knot. I helped it a bit with ripping, playing around and African dust. Nothing makes your head dread so fast as sitting on top of a lorry cabin for 3 days in a row travelling through the desert heading for Ethiopia.They had be cut due to mass loss of hair after taking medicine for malaria and creatures living in my stomach. They would be 11 years old now.I knew that one day I would get back to dreads. In 2007 I went back to Kenya and Tanzania to work there. And I brought a DreadheadHQ starter kit. *Yes we all have our weak moments* I just didn't know any better.So this set was started the day we found out we were going to have a baby. So they have been growing as long as my Son has.I started with the DreadheadHQ and really disliked the wax. Waking up in the morning peeling the dreads of your forehead is not nice. I was sticky and itchy.So I gave the wax up pretty much after the first time I applied it. And apparently they took pretty good care of themselves as they are still in good shape, dreading all by themselves, no rolling what so ever.The only thing I kept using was the DHHQ shampoo. And did I have dandruff like it was Christmas. Right after washing it would start. I ran into SE on twitter and ended up here. Sweet!So today I did my first Soda wash. But before I did this I washed it first with the shampoo form DHHQ. Just to see if it would get out more then the HQ one would.Well see the picture below,....

All moms are like that! I had dreads, she hate them, had to cut them off. "Oh where are your sweet dreads?" I grew dreads again "Oh no not again". GreyGargoyle said:
Thanks guy's.
I just saw my mom for the first time in seven months or eight months and she had this dirty look on her face when she saw my hair. Then she said, what are you doing with it? I said, nothing and she said, well...we're going to get your brothers hair cut, do you want to go get yours cut too? I said, "no, I'm not cuttin it anymore." and she asked again right before she went out the door.
I expected that. She likes the clean cut look. Whatever, she's lame.
