I opted to go bandless. I originally was going to but I kind of just said "fuck it" and just started. I would have gone natural if I would have though my job would be cool with that but I am not sure they would have been. Plus I have to keep my hair up in a pony while I am there so I am tyring to be very careful doing that....that and getting metal chips in my locks (I'm a CNC machinist) which could suck if I start setting off metal detectors with my locks

I follow my Bronners wash with a acv rinse and thats it now. Seems to be doing the trick. I did a Salt water spray today too and added some teatree and rosemary oil to that, just I had a little bit of the itchies but it seems to have taken care of it so far. You may have just done too much and not rinsed enough off or something. Maybe try and just do some water rinses for a few days then hit the bronners again. You might need to play around with the dilution a little to get it right. I heard it reacts a bit different in certain water types.

I have loose hairs everywhere They will get swallowed up or start their own journey. My tips are super loose and are all curly but thats about it. Mine are fuzzy too but I am not worried. It will all work out one way or the other. And No problem, I am by no means an expert but I can certainly share what I have gone through so far.

I just today finished doing my back. I had my mom do some sectioning for me and a friend this weekend and was going to wait but I just started to grab sections when I got off work and I just went to town. I thought it would be harder than it was actually. I have a lot of hair myself, not long like yours but just a LOT of hair. My arms feel like they are going to fall off

But it is normal for them to come undone from what I have read. Its just your hairs way of saying "Ok, so if this is what you want, I'm going to do it this way:" Just hang in there

How did you wash? The first time I washed after T&R mine were coming undone like crazy. I did the BS wash and I think i messed it up because I switched to using Dr. Bronners 18-1 Magic Soap and they are fine when I get out of the shower now. If anything they tighten up more as they dry.

Yeah, we have chickens too - and one duck who thinks he's a chicken LOL! We are planning on planting this weekend so lots of back-breaking work coming up! I have been dreading since late February (I think). I haven't really been keeping track of how long. I am getting really dready on the sides and it is just starting to dread a little in the back. I do a little T&R here and there which kind of helps. I am really starting to like the look I am getting too. Just not used to having all this longer thick hair. I have kept mine cut short for years!!!
wool tam sea salt?
ok thought so
