My hair already IS dreading up, there's no way that I can take the beads out and let it resection now. I separated and added the beads in the first place because my hair was not sectioning on it's own, it was turning into one enormous matted mess in the back of my head. I will watch the video
So, I started my dreads about a month ago and they are coming along just fine. I have beads in my hair to keep the strands separated, but the only issue is that the roots are not staying separated. The roots of all my separate strands are dreading together and they are very hard to separate. Is this alright? As my hair grows should I just keep pulling the strands apart to make sure the roots separate? I'm dreading my hair the natural way and my initial separating before the beads was not especially clean-cut.
Hey guys! So, I just recently started my dreads. I had a little mishap the first time I tried them and so I started over and now I'm using the natural/neglect method. However, I decided to section my hair the way I want it and then put rubber bands at the roots. I don't know if it makes any difference but my hair is very thin and fine. Are the rubber bands okay to leave in for the first month or so, or should I just take them out?
