Ya. I am curious about this. I like to cover my hair so it doesn't get wet. But I think this carried over from my early dread beginnings. I really haven't thought about it and do this naturally because I want my dreads to stay dry.
I just want people opinions on this. I don't know if it matters.
Hola Zero Newton. You came to the right spot. Welcome.
What kind of music do you play? and, What instrument(s)?
Wow that's a long time lol. Kudos, looks like they are coming along nicely. So did all the palm rolling work?
Steaze McGee said:I did not wash my dreads for the first two months. It was great. I had mud in some spots that turned to dirt. My hair was conceived at home but born in the desert. When the mud dried i shook it out.
Now I wash every third day, maybe forth, either with a bar of soap or some non residue wash.
I used to be real gentle, I used to palm roll, now I get in them when I clean and let them hang out. I used to blow dry and now I air dry them. It almost seems like I switched rolls. I get all over them in the wash and I touch them way less out of it. It took me a while to learn how I wanted them, and how they would be. I did not know what our relationship would be. I wanted them to be round chords at first. Really what took me the longest was to break all conceptions and opinions of other people. After I did that my hair finally became mine.
