Finally joined the group!!
Introduce Yourself
So I've used this site in the past as a reference but I didn't join then. I started my dread journey this last February, so I'm right at the 6 month mark now. Haven't really done anything to it. Due to my job and where I live I do have to wash my hair almost daily. Which I don't think has hurt it much at all. While I do have frizzies, much of it is dreaded already. Before I found this site I used another which recommended using wax which made sense then. I spent hours back combing then added wax, worst mistake ever. Not only is it sticky and gross, but I learned I'm highly allergic to it. So after spending more hours unraveling and stripping wax from my thick mop all I ended up with was a wasted weekend. So that issue lead me down the right path in finding this site. Six months later and I'm as happy as can be. I've worn my hair in every possible style but none have I enjoyed more. Thanks again for the great info in one location and all the great relatable stories that everyone has posted.
