Hey all So i'm about 2 months in to backcomb/natural dreading. I backcombed at first and ended up losing all the ones i did. So i've been doing neglect for a month and a half now and it's going great here are just a few pictures of what has been going on so far
Hi Jan, Iv'e Just Read All The Posts You Have Made On "Hip Forums" And I Am Really Pleased You Have Finally Decided To Dread... From The Pics It Appears Everything Is Going Well So Far. If Somebody Has Not Already Said So, May I Take This Opportunity To Welcome You To The "Dready Section" Of H.F's... Cheers Glen.
Looking nice and wild!! So happy you decided to post some pics of them. What has your mom said? Dead curious!
thanks so much for all the wonderful comments!! I really appreciate the support you guys are giving me Also, to answer the questions asked earlier: My mom knows i smoke ganja hah she doesnt mind it, she said its something that comes in a normal life if you experience it and like it, there's no reason to stop something you enjoy doing even if its not a "good" thing. She understands it though haha. And my mom supports my hair, the first time i saw her with them she said she wants to see how they turn out and quite possibly put an ornament on it saying "I love my mom" hahaha Hope i didnt forget anyone's question but yeah, i'm enjoying the journey and its so much fun being out and just experiencing how society looks at a "dreadhead" I'll keep you guys updated for sure
Thanks! 2 months in so far and i'm starting to notice a lot more knotting and plus i've gotten my dread beanie which i've been wearing all week and it looks like it's helping a whole lot. I'll keep you guys updated
Yeah i love her to death she's very understanding which made my dread journey so much more exciting. She wants to decorate them when they mature
I was just asking because of your previous concerns about dreading and your parents. It's awesome when parentals understand that we can still be good people/children even if we do things a little differently than they do. But decorating them... are you going to let her?
