So this is lame, I've had a "boyfriend" for two years and since I've decided to make the transition into natural dreadlocks he's been extremely persistent about leaving me if I continue this journey. I really am caught in the middle as this to me is amazing and strange and only hair and something I want to try but he's clearly shallow and claims they're dirty and smelly and I look lazy. Some advice pleaseeeeee

After years of admiring I decided about a week ago to go for it. I have very thin wavy hair I decided to do the twist and rip method around the bottom for length and going completely natural ontop. I would love any tips any advice as I am very impatient and so nervous. I notice my hair getting frizzy around the ends but not much more. Thank you in advanced for any help I receive!
