    Over this past week my girlfriend and I (mostly her, heh) backcombed my whole head. I still have my sectioning rubber bands on. But don't worry! Rivera is going to carefully take them off next week before they start to get "eaten".

    I also got a chance to try the deep cleanse. I've been reading about it on here and hearing the raves for quite a while and I was dying to try it. And it was as nice as I thought it would be!

    Any way, onto the few pictures I have. I don't have a very fancy camera right now so some of these are a little blurry!

    I'll post more picture over the next week as they do their first growing!

    thanks so much for all the great comments!

    the OG dread is about 2 months old...he's locked up pretty tight so far so i have high hopes!

    my best friend has a "professional" camera and we're going to start taking some pictures, probably every three weeks or so to watch the growth so i'll keep the pictures updated!

    i assure u that when u take the bands off, the tips will just do the normal thing and get whispy.
    the bands dont help after the first wash or so.
