3 weeks in... finally looking decent..

I no longer need to back comb them to keep them in... I've got a major halo of loose hairs, but I think it looks better than the random chunks of loose hair i had before.. I can feel em starting to get tighter.. GAH i cant wait for them to actually lock in...

BTW, nvm the classroom setting, im in the video lab messin with the new iMacs.

 

wow FINALLY!

 

PCs will make your dreads lock up faster than wool.

 

you realli gotta be more patient man,,

 

Only if you run Linux.

 

3 weeks holy shit!
If it took any longer I would suggest going to the doctors

 

haha, im not complaining...

i am just really stoked.

the past two weeks of looking at my dreads and being unsatisfied kinda sucked.

 

I've been unsatisfied with mine for 10 months now

 

that sucks man... ive loved my dreads the entire time ive had em, but wasnt the biggest fan of the having to wake up every morning and backcomb my hair..

 

erm... well don't back comb them then =/ even if you choose the back comb method you only need to do it once, if you keep doing it they cant knot by themselves because you keep combing it about, you just have to leave them...for months, back combing in the mean time is only a quick cosmetic fix, its not going to really help

 

you didn't have to, you chose to.

 

lux you raise a good point.
Also Luxie m'dear... your hair in your siggy looks quite strange in the way its sitting. Not that it's a bad thing


Night all

 

I was moving my head and the wind was blowing in that direction, doh!

 

true. i chose to... but i wanted to look somewhat decent amongst my peers. not that i care what they think or anything, it just tend to shut them up..

 

you look a lot like the crazy guy from a scanner darkly the one that saw the bugs all over him

dreads are looking good

 

lol sunflower you're right

yeah dude just let them settle in. I did backcomb parts of them a few times in the first week, it helped to push it down to the roots and the girl who did mine got lazy on the top of my head so they needed encouragement, but it's not necessary, especially not everyday

 

taking advantage of the imacs

 

nevertheless looks cool as pie lux!
