interlocking dreadlocks what it is and why its not recomended ever
Dread Maintenance
yer I now wish I had never cut them... it makes me sad to think how much ive lost to the scissors. Infact I used to hate cutting them so much that I kept the dreads in a bag
.Its just Ive needed to work in the past doing jobs that really were not suitable for 2/3ft of hairIm 100% certain no wax is left... all the hair on my head has grown in the last 3 years and ive not waxed for 4/5.... I may be wrong but im sure im not. I will check the wax removal thread though as you say, to see wot gwan rawsum said: hey shine 166, how is "that hair long gone"? Did you cut them? Don't cut them and more importantly get the wax out.. no matter how briefly you used it it will likely STILL be there causing havoc .. as proven by many after the fact of cutting their dreads and dissecting them.. check the 'wax removal' thread on the top bar
shine166 said:TBH that sounds about right mate, il admit I got briefly sucked into tyhe whole wax thing.. not for long theough.... and that hair is long gone. Is it too late to go natural ? The only info given so far from another forum is 'cut em' and after 7 years thats not something to be taken lightly for me

Mate as I said before ive had very limited input over the years from anyone who new what they were doing, 'only option' is a figure of speech.... Im learning now which may be 7 years too late. But at least im willing to learn the propper methods
soaringeagle said: u said it was your only option? who the hell lied to u and told u that? u then said your dreads dread on theyre own so natural would also have been an option so would twists or twist and rip (depending on race)
interlocking is the worse method and your lucky to have not lost a dread
if your african your hairs lil more forgiving so can survive it easier but still not a good idea
yea just stop it its totaly not needed does nothing good and your dreads will be alot stronger without
