Help! Save My Dreads
Yea there's no way they are coming out at all. I did it like super tight and weaved it in and out of the spirals of hair so there would be no holes and no loops, i thought i was being clever but i was really just f'ing it up. But thanks, I just needed a pat on the back.

I mistakenly was interlocking like aggressively for a few months. In some areas there's like hard solid chunks of hair that feel like a rock. I even accidentally tied one lock in a knot or something somehow. I'm just like restless and paranoid about them snapping off. I had such a nice head of long hair before i went to the salon to have it twisted and it feels like a huge waste, like a blank canvas that was lit on fire instead of painted on. I am trying to transition to not touching/rolling my hair, I do it subconsciously, like a addict does drugs or sumthing. O well, we shall see.

Dirty looks and negativity
General Questions
When I don't have the energy to deflect negative vibes from the ignorant masses I wear this hoodie that i cut the sleeves off of so I don't sweat. Also good for concerts and other places where there's sweaty possibly dirty people like spilling drinks everywhere.
When I do have the energy I let my hair out and just stand with good posture and and breathe deeply and no one really says anything. I have had people yell things like "get a job" and stuff from cars when I'm taking a walk, even though I have a profession and a car, I just like walking. It's amazing the balls people get when they they are speeding away in a car and your a pedestrian.

When i first got my hair twisted at the salon it hurt so bad my eyes were tearing. My neck was getting sore from keeping my head still.

There's too much to read everything here but I wanted to say
1. I messed up my hair with interlocking. There's like rock hard nuggets strewn about my locks.
2. I think the boxes and the scalp look cool. Some people shave their head bald as a style, BUT, if it's going to lessen lock longevity then it's completely not worth it. It's like steroids for your locks, quick muscle gain, but in the long term, all you get is saggy man boobs, shrunken balls, and hair in places you don't want and no hair in places you do want.
3. SE maybe that guy was calling you a caveman cus he was jealous of your righteous rowdy beard.
