Hello

Introduce Yourself

Thanks for the concern for my dreadbabies. The wax was only put on a couple of dreads on the back of my head, and they ended up falling apart again anyways so I'm pretty sure the wax is all gone.

Hello and welcome. Glad you stopped using the wax. Make sure its gone though (there are threads on the forum for that). For shampoo most people here seem to prefer Dr Bronners or just use the BS/ACV (check in maintenance). A lot of folks (including me) had a bad experience with any dreadheadhq products.
Love and Peace

Affika, thank you! Yeah they are a bit much to deal with. I wish I could enter a time machine, and come out a good 6 months from now with my nice and tight locs.Haha.

Hello

Introduce Yourself

My name is Sierra! I live on the east coast of the sunshine state. (Florida)My dreads will be five months old on the eleventh, and I lovvvve my babylocs. I've always liked dreads, but I never thought I would get them myself. Then one day I randomly decided to actually go forth with the process. My dreads were formed through backcombing. I've only used wax once, and it was just to see if I liked what it did. It made me feel sticky and icky, so the only thing I put in my hair on a regular basis is salt water after I wash my hair because it gets so damn frizzy and loose. My friend gave me a bottle of the dreadheadhq shampoo, and I've been using that to wash my hair. It's okay. Just a shampoo, but I do wish it had a scent or something. I miss scented shampoos. :c I think I'll look into how to make my own shampoo or buy something that I can use and smells great. And wellll. I dont really know what to write, but hello folks.

I have just one question, what size hook did you use?

thanks all it takes is basic knowledge of a few stitches, and then practice granny squares are great for practicing - they don't take too long so you won't feel too bad if you have to redo them, and if they come out to your satisfaction you can use them for a a headband, a tam, a blanket, slippers, coasters, you name it if you need help, let me know. and i recommend watching video instructions!

Oh my gosh. :D Those are so cute! I'm definitely going to try and make one. I suck at crocheting and knitting so bad though.
