    No, I wouldn't shave the fuzzies. If it really bothers you, roll them every day, maybe putting a spot of aloe in your hand. Yes, they will fall apart a bit, but they'll groove eventually. Hang in there and let them be.

    Most people here are going to disagree with me:


    But I use the Knotty Boy "Tropical Tightening Gel". Has a badass lime scent and a jar will last forever, because you only need a tiiiiiiny dab of it per dread, as it is gel it stretches so far.
    They keep all my frizzies undercontrol and I use it when I have like a job interview, dates, things of that nature.

    Some people say K-Boy rots your dreads, but mine are tight and fine. Just don't go overboard with it, use it for maintenance. 2 weeks is nothing, your dreads will be fragile at first.

    i use aloe vera, and i'm around the same stage you are with my dreads. the only problem i'd say to watch out for is that i noticed it kind of hurts some of the knots i've been forming, so make sure you use it in moderation :)

    we should compare pics!
