I was thinking of using any conditioner and now I'm glad I asked here first. I'll look for one with protein.
Thanks SE!
Follow up question:
Do you think I should untangle them all or should I keep the naturally dreaded part two inches or so from the roots?
How Do I Make My Hair Stonger As I Untangle My Dreadlocks?
Help! Save My Dreads
I haven't had my hair cut for more than 5 years now and they have been in locks for three years. I started with the crochet method and was foolish to think that using wax would help. They locked up great alright but they're not healthy. So I am thinking of untangling the lot and starting from scratch.
My problem though is that while trying to untangle one lock, I may be breaking plenty of strands. I understand that this because they have been in a cramped position for years due to the wax but is there a way I can make the hair stronger? This way, I can untangle all of my dreads (with plenty of congos to boot) and still have plenty of hair left for a natural run at dreading.
Thanks in advance!

How do I dry my hair?
Introduce Yourself
air dry for me. just let it all hang out and let it dry. i thought about getting a dryer to speed up the process for those times when i really really really really really need my hair to be as dry as possible but never got around to doing it and i see no problem with just letting it dry naturally.

Hi there SE. Your video on YouTube led me to this site and I thank you very much for that.
Anyway, whenever I need to add general categories for websites, I consult eBay's categories. So it'd be like:
Antiques
Books
Cameras & Photos
Cell Phones & Home Phones
Clothing, Shoes & Accessories
Coins & Currency
Collectables
Computers & Networking
Consumer Electronics
Entertainment
Health & Beauty
Home & Garden
Jewellery & Watches
Real Estate
Sports
Stamps
Toys & Hobbies
Vehicles & Motors
Everything Else
Hope that helps. I'll be more than happy to add a link to this site from mine. We can also ask other members to do the same.

You can just write an article and submit it at ezinearticles.com. They would review it first before it gets published same with other article directories so you don't have to show that you already have published something.
There are sites that do pay for your articles like bukisa and associated content but I think for the latter you need to be based in the US to earn money from your articles.

When you say you have to submit an article to show that you are a writer, do you mean that you need to show that you already have something published, or just that you need to demonstrate the quality of your writing? I've never attempted to have anything published, but I'm a writer nonetheless. I could absolutely write up some articles on dreads; I'd love to share this site and see more beautiful, natural dreads in the world.
Wool tams
Introduce Yourself
I know this thread's been here since last year but I just want to ask if anyone can direct me where I can buy wool thread for crocheting. I can crochet a little and made a tam just following a YouTube vid but it's made of acryclic thread which has a wool-like feel. Is acryclic thread okay or do I really need the real thing? Also, where can I get them? I'm from the Philippines by the way and arts and crafts store and not really big here in the provinces.
