Is it okay if I trim?
Dreading Methods
Still curious about others opinions on this.. >_>
I've pondered about this a little bit.. The only reason I would cut it would probably be to donate it, if I could?, to Locks of Love or a similar charity. I mean it says "locs" C; why Wouldnt someone who needs hair want my dreads? Following this thred. PEace and blessings
You can wear a headband, just don't wear one that's constricting or is made with elastic. I wear a cloth head band, that also doubles as a hair tie, to work. You can also make head bands / hair ties out of old T-shirt parts. :D As for the loose hairs I really recommend the Lockin' Up Liquid soap from Vicki @ Dreadlocksshamoo.com . Peace and happy dreading
I wouldnt bother with root rubbing, the effects of it do not last and besides; frizzys are gunna frizz. Just let it be. Root rubbing can also cause baldness, increase in dandruff, and other problems listed by Soaring Eagle ^^. This is a great thread about thighting dreads..

Dont fret love. One time I was checking my hair out in the bathroom, and a black beetle, moderatly sized?, crawled across my forehead hair line. I freaked the fuck out. No one has ever pointed out any bugs nor have I found anymore however, I think it just happens sometimes. Just like you occasionally find a spider in the house, ya know? If you find anymore tell Soaring Eagle. Peace and happy dreading!
i dont think boddy pins are a super great idea.. Does it have to be a bun? I work fast food and as long as its tied back somehow, it doesnt matter. Try rocking a ponytail of some sort of braid and ese how it goes down. Good luck and happy dreading!
Im glad that you've stopped crocheting! They will heal nicely.
So what can we do about it? Ive donated before and I can donate again. Also, whenever anyone, even strangers, ask me about my hair, i recommend this site..
