Introduce Yourself
they look good and what your doing seems to be working just fine they look strong and healthy
they look good and what your doing seems to be working just fine they look strong and healthy
looks good just be aware they will get loose and messy for awhile
he is doing everything right just has very oily hair that don't like to tangle
i'm not at all suggesting this and i scolded someone else for suggesting it but ..someone did say in cases of very oily hair they would just not wash and let it get oily and caked together and dread..it seems like absolute opposite of whats recommended but hey if u try everything else what is there to lose
again..not recommending it just saying someone had suggested it as an option
i let mine dread while camping in the woods
a lot here went natural
shes right, when you force them its constant panic and worry and feeling like you need to do more
when you let it happen its pure relaxation.. serenity.. you just accept that it will happen as it should and theres no need to worry at all
for just a couple weeks they are coming along great
well..i wouldn't say "use whatever method you want at that point"
don't make another mistake on top of the 1st 1 use natural, or twist and rip
if you must, backcomb
but don't use crochet or anything else
this was the end result of going camping in the wilderness for a couple weeks (same place I'm going next week 26 years later (18 in the photo))
just let it happen
your choice, the 1 i took and recommend (many do here) let it section and dread itself
now being that your hairs barely 6 inches right? and pretty straight, it might not be too quick to see 1st dreads
if its 6 or more you might see dreads sooner then expected
or.. you can section smaller (you got what 15?) try for 30+
only under 30 if u want thick..
or let it section itself but, none over 1 inch square (well size not shape) then tnr
you can twist and rip at any time
or 1 at a time
or wait and see what they do
i don't think those would even need to be combed out, just remove the wax wash the sections i don't think will hold together if they do somewhat try to gently if u can pull each apart into 4 or so
or brush out resection and twist n rip
just no wax and crap
well the shampoos not going to harm you though we recommend boycotting them till they stop pushing wax
you will need wax b gone to get the wax out
their shampoo is way more recommended too ( www.dreadlockshampoo.com )
btw dreads looking like dreads in 2 weeks isn't the way to think...
if left alone to dread naturally you could have dreads .. a dread or 2 starting to form in a couple weeks, if you got instant dreads at a salon, the actual dreading takes much much longer
