just making sure im going about this the right way.


Dread Maintenance

so i have some back combed, some neglect baby dreads that are about two weeks old. obviously the back combed ones look more "dreaded", but im finally starting to get knots in the rest of my hair.

my routine is every 2 to3 days ill make a BS wash (4 cups water, 1/3 cup BS, tablespoon of salt and a few splashes of lemon juice) pour it on my head and wrap it up in a towel to soak, then wash it out during my shower. i use no wax but try to use a sea salt and water spray to freshen up.i try to use a lot of BS because my job is a tad dirty ( i work at home depot on freight and im up in the racks with dust, dirt, bugs, and before i got dreads i got drenched in a gallon of fallen paint LOL)

is this a decent routine to keep them clean or does anyone have suggestions? thanks for any input :)

natural dreadlocks or neglect method dreading


Dreading Methods

i just back combed some of my hair and let the rest do its own thing. at work ill pull them back and have a wide headband on. the first day my manager looked shocked and says "uhhh...... um, nice hat!" LOL my other manager swears i dont wash my hair, so if she starts to give me hell, i just chase her and she freaks out. its totally worth it. lol

when i worked in an office (mannaaging web designers) for the interview i showed up with my beard dreads tucked inside my shirt and wearring a tam, 1st day of work i see the receptionisys got crystals through guaged ears so i figured it wasnt all that uptight, 15 minutes after starting wiork i take off my tam andthe president of the company strolls by and stops in his tracks and just says "wow"
after that my only comprimise from my usual daily style was i wore shirts that didnt have the sleeves ripped off


u might wanna break it to em slower tie your hair back while its dreadin it wont look look too dready so u will be fine when dreads start to form if they say anything wear a tam, or wrap, if u go with wrap go for a solid xolor nutral black or somethinbg or headbands wide ones are best

most jobs wont care
