| Can you wash dreads? |
| Yes, it just takes a bit longer. You reall yhave to get ALL the shampoo out. Or else it could dry up and dry your scalp out and give you a rash :(. Not a good thing. You cant use your moms shampoo anymore either. NO more conditioner. Try to use a dread shapoo describes in my products page. Dont think that just cuz you have dreads you cant wash em. Just not for about the first 3 weeks. They start to stink. Trust me, wash them. Or face not having a date for the rest of your knotted life. |
| Should I do it myself or get it done at a hair salon? |
| Dont bother with a hair salon. They onlky backcomb it and kick you out after you pay the 75 bucks. Dreads arent something that only take a day to do and last forever. You have to keep working on them. TWIST TILL YOU GET BLISTERS!!!! Im serious. JUst remember that its the hair that hold dreads together. not the wax. Do it your self, or by friends, or even your mom. Its not hard. DIY is the best way to go. MAke an event out of it. Watch movies, listen to music, eat supper, play video games. Whatever. It will help teh time pass. It took 5 hours for mine, and my hair was 7 inches long. Imagine with long hair, its an allday party. |
| My dreads keep growing out at my scalp like normal straight hair, what should i do? Abosolutely nothing, your hair will eventually grow into the shape of dreads, trust me. It might seem impossible at first, but the mesh of knotted hair will start to move closer to your head. With short dreads ir might look kinda dumb cuz the straight hair is half as long as your dreads. But just realize that just cuz your dreads dont look like bob marley's, they still kick ass. My friends says my dreads suck, what should i tell him? I have friends who think that m dreads are crap becuz they arent "black". Just tell them that your dreads arent a fashion piece like their 5000$ FUBU jeans. Those people suck, you should tell your ignorant friends to just chillax (chill and relax) about it. My head itchs, what should i do? IF YOU WASH THEM :chances are that you didnt wash out the shampoo, just have a shower and wash out ALL the shampoo. It will realy help. Put some vinegar in your hair to dilute the soap. IF YOU DONT WASH THEM : WASH THEM! *I have a real big problem, I have decalvins folliculitis, basicaly im allergic to the oil on my scalp, everywhere i get oil, i get a rash. I sux, it itchs. If you have an actual medical condition, use all your medications and use medical shampoo like tersaseptic. If ever you get bugs (ew) or you get a really bad rash or skin cancer or whatever. SHAVE YOUR HEAD!!!! Your life and health are more important than your dreads. What wax should i use? I dont see a big difference. People try and pull a bunch of knottyboy propaganda all the time. Its all teh same stuff. No good waxes have petromleum jelly (vaseline) in them. Beeswax is all that matters. Dont put up with the knotty boy crap. Use murrays or anything other brand they sell near your house. Knotty BOy is about 3 times more money for 3 times less wax, what a ripoff... |
