and, the right.

Any suggestions to help the back???

 

ooooh pretty! they look really nice so far

 

5 days?!?!?!?!?!??!! they look f*ckin amazing!!!!!

 

^ you took words from my mouth missy DO NOT MESS WITH THE BACK THOSE ARE F**KING AWESOME! PLEASE PLEASE! lol all you have to do is wash now.

 

You could make some baby's from the loose hairs ( I like making baby's geheh)

 

I actually just made some babies hehe... they're kind of difficult though!

I know everyone says not to worry too much about the roots because they will knot themselves over time and what not, but I keep getting really paranoid about it!!! AHH!

 

WOW! what did you do to them because they dont look backcombed. Tell me how. Im envious.
:sombrero:

 

they were backcombed...
but, after that I started backcombing them with my fingers/hands a bit everyday and then palm rolling, then hand/finger backcombing some more, repeat repeat repeat, til they felt tight.

oh, and maybe they look different, because before I start finger-backcombing, I pull the dread tight, and twist it around my finger a little.

My hair is impossible to palm roll without doing this often... my dreads become very flat and awkward and there's no way in hell you can palm roll them without doing lots lots of pulling, twisting, and finger backcombing.

I'm a tad obsessive about working on them constantly.
They're my babies.

 

they look so good! just leave them alone, they look wonderful and they'll just keep getting better. I have the same bead in my hair that you have in the right picture, the striped one

 

any suggestions? why are you asking for suggestions? you are absolutely beautyfull. you dont need suggestions, you look really really good. go out, show them off, be proud. if i met you somewhere i would compliment those dreads, because you are looking so good.

ok. enough drinks now, time to go to bed, its 3am in norway

gl with those babies, you have a wonderfull beginning, looking better then mine, and ive had mine for almost 3 months

 

ohh a & o im sooooooooooo glad u took the plunge i think i suggested u go dread months ago in a thread & i hope that you get everything from the journey u seek..
ya look amazing so stop obsessing & just be..
after all isnt that the whole point?

 

they look killer!! good job

 

they are gorgeous. they really suit you aswell =]
peace

 

thank you everyone
They're really coming along, and progressing pretty quickly. They're tightening up extremeeeely fast.

The scalp itch is getting a little insane... but I'm a tough bitch haha

 

dr bronners tea tree oil soap, i get the big bottle, then add 2 droppers full of rosemary oil to it, from that i dilute some to wash em with..it will take care of the itchies
then just wash like weekly & u should be fine

lookin good & congrats

 

Thank you ...I'll be sure to try some of that out.

 

Holy crap! Those dreads are only 5 DAYS!?

You, my friend, are going to have AWESOME dreads.

I find myself amazed at the different results for different hair and people. I wish mine would lock up that fast!

 

iv had dreads 6 months and they look better than mine! nice...also you have some very nice beads =D

 

beautiful dreads sister. What a great start.

 

thanks everyone,
i had to pretty much re-do them last night/re-backcomb... I woke up yesterday morning and they were all falling out, and I suspect its just because my hair got too greasy or something. So I re-backcombed them tightly, and washed with dread soap, and they are doing MUCH better now.

Ill post pix again soon
