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.
yea i didnt think shavin thm was a good idea.. sum1 jst tld me so i tohught id get a bit of info of th pros first... wt u mean by aloe?? aloe vira n ill get sum pics up assoon as i can get a camera, i fuzzies dnt really bother me tht much its just whn i go on a night out i wanna look a lil smarter

i aslo herd salt water is good 4 lockin th dreads up??? i think im goin 4 a dip in th sea 2night so ill find out
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!
