I find its much easier to rip apart when my hair is wet too. And try just working at a few hairs at a time.. its less painful that way!
Depends on hair type I think. My really messy stage didn't start until like 4 months. But either way, you can just tie them back or use aloe to...
Haha, thanks! I try to stay on top of ripping.. do it when I wash about once a week. They're just so lumpy with lots of loose hairs, so it looks...
Hey all! So I've been posting in here for a while now, and I realized I haven't shared any pics of my dreads. Seeing how today they are 7 months...
Very cool! That looks way to complicated for me..
You're right soaringeagle, it's probably really difficult to comb them out! I don't actually have any personal experience with that, nor do I...
1. If you appear clean, and have always been, they shouldn't have any reason to think you aren't now. Shouldn't matter what people think anyways!...
Hmm.. waiting too long to rip them apart. It hurts a lot more the longer you wait! lol.
Like soaringeagle said, concentrate on your qualifications and why you are great for a job. If you don't make a big deal out of your dreads, other...
They all started off pretty thin, but they are shrinking in length, and fattening up as they do so. So now I've got some really short, fat ones,...
I have ridiculously thin hair, and my hair looks more full with dreads than it ever used to. It definitely lost length, and is continuing to do...
No real insults yet, just joking from the family.. like my dad saying he can't be seen in public with me anymore, haha. All in all, most...
I already had a job when I got mine, but no one really seems to mind. I do wear my hair up at work though, and with normal bangs, sometimes it's...
You can definitely dye them, just don't use the conditioner package afterwards. And leave lots of time in between dye jobs so they don't get too...
For non-residue shampoo, I have Dr. Bronner's peppermint. Don't know how widely available it is, here I found it at a health food type store...
My fringe/bangs are undreaded, and I just wash them a bit more often than the rest of my hair. They're pretty easy to keep seperate from the...
Invest in a metal comb.. plastic ones will snap after a couple dreads. The teeth on my metal comb even started snapping after a while. You can...
If you're going to be swimming a lot, I would suggest getting a swimcap so they don't get soaked everytime, and using a hairdryer to get them dry....
Pretty much all of my dreads are absolutely ridiculously loopy and misshapen. And I backcombed to start them. lol.
I wouldn't dye too soon, give them some time to tighten up. I've heard manic panic doesn't stay in hair all that well actually, SFX is supposed...
