So they're not really "dreads" then. Just twists.

Stopping the congos

Dread Maintenance

Let them congo a bit? It's actually a fun process to see, and if they are being THAT stubborn, then just see what happens. Maybe not into a 3" wide dread, but two 1 1/2" ones wouldn't be bad!

dandruff...at least I think

are you using the baking soda wash?

If you are, make sure when you mix the BS and water, that the water is HOT.

Have problems with your dreads and helmets?

I use a full-face helmet btw, and it fits my head perfectly, just pulls my hair too much when I put it on. I believe if I go up another size, I'd lose the protective properties the helmet offers.

And my brother wants a rebel 250. We used those in the MSF course. Awesomeindestructiblebikes!

Have problems with your dreads and helmets?

Since I started riding a motorcycle recently, I have been trying to figure out the best way to get my helmet on. For a while, I just tried to get it on as gently as possible, because it would pull at my dreads and reaaaally hurt, and the tension on my scalp was unbearable.BUT I was searching through my drawer of stuff I never throw away, and I found this! http://reviews.underarmour.com/2471/8000071/skull-cap-reviews/reviews.htm It's a skull cap thing that keeps your hair tucked down. It doesn't help with the dreading process because it's so smooth, but it really helps getting the helmet on.I used to wear it for wrestling when I had a long mohawk. I placed it on my head (not tucking dreads underneath, there was no need) and I was surprised at how easily it slid over my hair! No problems.And my baby dreads flap in the wind behind me. I can't wait until they're like 2 feet long lmao.So, just a tip for anyone who has this problem. And anyone thinking about riding motorcycles, do it!

Not related to this, but I can't believe those people that commented on his video saying "omg wax works".

Getting my hair really clean?

Introduce Yourself

When you used the baking soda, was the water you mixed it with VERY hot?That was my problem too. It was only luke warm and had a slightly strange texture on my scalp. Just mix is when it's super hot, let it cool down and then use it!
