Dread Tip 153963

Hair Clips!

this kind





If im havin a problem dread, i just throw one of these bitches on there for a day or two, and when it comes off, they seem much tighter. They go on an off super easy, but still stay on. Might work for you too, let me know what you think. Or if you have any other tips.

Also, palmrolling, good or bad? when to use it?

 

Yep I love those too, whenever I'm washing up and one of those naughty front dreads decides to start tickling my nose, despite not doing it at any other times

 

Lol and I bet you sure look purdy with a bunch of those all over your head!

 

id never use em cause they got teeth teeth can disturb knots
i just tie a dread round the others or tuck a dread under the rest


palm rolling
well
very rare lil bit wont harm u too much. but they remove all thye unique features and make them boring
but if u need boring dreads for your career then do it

but dont over do it or u can rtoll em till they brerak

rilling is generaly useless
not needed at all

if u insist on it do irt while damp, gently, and not often

i have never done it once..ever
i see no point

dreads are soooo wonderfullbecause u dont gotta do a damn thing to em they take care of themselves
so why create work u dont gotta do?

 

haha, unfortunately i only have two of them, but they sure beat walking abound with panty hose on your head

 

yeah, i just love playing with em and touch en em, but dont wanna do any harm. and i dont put the teeth thru the dread, just kinda clamp it, so it huggs the dread.

 

they go through something tho..roots?

a bandana or asnythings gentler

why would u put panty hose on your head? lol
why not a tam or hat
a nandana or headband
or if theyre long enough just tie a dreasd round the rest
(or 2 across thye rest)

 

im quite certain mine arnt long enough, but have seen these done and dont quite understand how. But ill put up a picture of a dread clip hugg and show that it doesnt go through any part of it, the teeth just overlap

 

Jonny Clean told me too!

but now i use all kindsa hats and tams and headbans

 

sometimes Mr SE you seem mega paranoid about stuff... those kind of clips wont harm the dread at all

 

Take out those bands. Those will really damage your hair. Rip it to shreds not to mention them getting stuck inside the dreads. Rubber bands do absolutely no good. They don't even help it knot faster. I would take them out immediately.

 

i agree on the band front.... still picking bits of em out of some of the ends of mine lol

 

I'm sure those clips are fine. I don't use them though as they kinda hurt me?haa,I just use bit of old tops that I've ripped up and tie em round my barnet in a bow^-^
but yesyes,as others have said. Get rid of those nasty bands. I never used them, and my hair is fine

 

I hate those clips because they always slip off or hurt my head if I rest it on something, but there's nothing wrong with using them. It doesn't look like it's doing anything bad for your dreads, so if it works for you, go for it!

And I don't think there's anyway that dreads can be "boring". Dreads in and of themselves are unusual and by nature, not boring. So I would certainly not worry about palm rolling and the like, because your hair will never be boring next to most people.

 

I palmroll when my hair is damp. I have plenty of loopies and lumpies....dont really think that is gonna stop them from doing what they want to do. Does help get them tighter in the early stages..did for me anyway.

I cant do those clips..get all tangled in my head...but then again I can even manage to wear sunglasses, hang ornaments, put clothes on over my head that has buttons, or even get near a damn clothes hanger....geeze!!!

 

Lol Callie you sound like a ball of walking chaos

 

i use spider clips! theyre good for holding a few dreads out of the way, spesh when im doing makeup, or my eyebrows or something. i dont ever wear them all the time though, and i dont pierce any locks with the fingery bits

 

You have no idea (did I use it right?) lil sista

 

Yay you did haha Aww shame most of us will probably never meet up...

 

welllllll we'll hafta change that one day wont we?! (when we're all rich)
