So, I have tons of loose hairs... Especially in the back... I've tried the whole "crotcheting method", but I really don't know how to do it that well & the smallest crotcheting hooks aren't really that small... so the loose hairs just come out within a day. I've tried palm rolling, that helps at the time, but they still jump out. I've tried wrapping the loose hairs around the dread I want it to join and then kind of stuff the loose hair in the middle of the dread, but you can see the separation and it usually comes undone. I don't really mind the loose hairs that much & I know I'm whining (it's only been 2 months), LOL, but does anyone have another suggestion... THANKS! __________ (I know, I know, be patient... But it's driving me nuts)
Ok.... So today I'm having problems. It seems as if they are all coming apart now. My hair is so soft... I try to seperate them after they've grown together and all it does is ruin the dread. There are parts that are knotted up, however the hair still slips out... I look like a mess every day. I try to dress really nice to try to take the attention away from my hair, yet I still feel like it's not working... I don't know. Maybe I'm just having a low self esteem day, but ... this is annoying. (I know, I know, be patient... But it's driving me nuts)
Be patient .... but seriously we all have those days... if you really want to reintegrate the hair soon use those little dental flosser things... i cant remember what they are called exactly but they are escentially little loops you can use to pull loose hair into the locks. i think theres a thread about them somewhere in this place just not sure where... hope this helps
I've been slacking a bit in that regard... I'm going to do wash tonight and dry... then I'll whip up a new spritz and drench em. LOL, I think I'm just being whiny.
I have the same problem. On a few dreads I just put the loose hairs on their respective dread and pushed a bead up around the whole thing. You could use peyote stitches too...or maybe wrap some hemp around it. That way the hair will HAVE to stick together. It has nowhere else to go! And salt/lemon water has worked wonders in my hair as well.
