MY DREADS JUST WON'T DREAD!

I did TnR, they fell out. So I tried backcombing, fell out too. WTHHH!

OK, this is going totally against the natural, BUT...maybe it's time you tnr them and use the Jamaican mango lime locking gel on them. I used that at first, it worked great, but it isn't the "natural" way. It leaves no residue but does hold the hair, even lets it move. I'm in south jersey if you need help...Nancy

General Questions

Will someone please tell me how I can get the bottom 3/4 of my hair to actually dread. The roots are SORT OF knotting but the rest of my hair is still just loose, brush-able hair. I've had them for about 6 months. WTF.

This is serious. Could I have skin cancer? I need your opinions.

General Questions

I have a flesh-colored/pink-ish raised bump on the right side of my stomach. It's pretty small but noticeable. It almost looks like a burn scar because it has a shiny texture to it but I haven't been burned or hurt in that area at all. It has a very light brown, small center that is sort of hard to the touch. It doesn't hurt or itch or irritate me when I do certain things. I did some research, compared it to a few pictures, and I think it may be basal cell carcinoma. It's nothing like a pimple or in-grown hair. What do you think and what should I do?

How to Convince Parents to allow Dreads? Any Ideas?

Life Issues Facing Dreads

just do it anyway! it's your head of hair. you should be able to do what you want with them. what are they going to do? cut all your hair off while you're sleeping?

OR

show them all the comments on here and how supportive people are. or, just show them the entire website in general

is it normal?

Help! Save My Dreads

Roots will normally have about an inch of undreaded hair for a while. It's just one of those things that you have to wait out. And as for the undreaded hair about halfway down.. mine are like that too and I've had dreads for about 3-4 months. It really tests your patience. A word of advice though, don't give up. They'll be looking locked and beautiful before you know it.

DREAD BEADS!

Dread Accessories

I need them but I'm a bit clueless as to where to buy them at a very reasonable price.

And I'm really clueless actually, about dread beads in general.
