lol! yah, i always worry people will think i have bugs if i'm itching my head i think going through this in the winter is hard too because of the dry conditions. thats why i still use the tea tree shampoo. i tried adding tea tree to my washes but our stupid water makes it impossible to rinse out completely.

Just saying: It's funny that the first part is all and then the update is all :D

that's great that it's working out!

Buuut I wash my hair every few days. I don't have a schedule, just whenever I feel like I have to.

If it gets too itchy, I don't like scratching with my finger nails because I feel like I loosen the roots up a lot...so I just use a pencil. Looks weird in class when I've got my wool hat on and I'm sticking a pencil all around it though lol

bump:)

how often should i be washing my hair? currently im washing it every other day. is that too often? if i wait an extra day then my scalp starts to itch and it drives me crazy plus i really like washing my hair:)

okay. well, we'll see how this goes tomorrow.

you'll wanna use smaller ones so they stick pretty close to the tips if possible but if they stick 1/2 way up thats fine too

picked up some beads today. i got all range of sizes because i don't know whats going to work. i'm going to add some tomorrow after i wash my hair. hopefully this will get the ball rolling.

i'm so glad to here that. i do notice my hair having more of a grip to it lately. the hair at my nape is where it the curliest so i'm expected the my first knots will show up there first too. how did you wash your hair in the beginning?

thanks for the encouraging words:)

Your hair looks like mine when I first started, and sounds like it, too.

I remember that I was pushing that three-month mark and still had NOTHING, but my hair was becoming more full. Then I started to notice a couple of dreads that just kind of snuck up on me in the back of my head, near the nape of my neck...and then they started multiplying like rabbits.

20 years?! oh lord, i hope it doesn't take that long. i'll be a senior citizen by then:)

I know a woman who took like over 20 years for her hair to dread

She has the most amazing locks!

yah, i'm definitely not giving up yet. i really dont want to backcomb. i'm hoping my first knot is going to appear very soon.

naturaakl dreads do not take a looong time as u say

look at the poll results and 1-3 months is average most of them have dreaded in 1-3 months sop since shes at 3 months shes just slightly behind average right now and very well could find her 1st dreads any time now
