I bought a two-pack of some soap called Simple, which is perfume free etc, to wash my dreads with. I saw on a youtube video, that someone with dreads was washing her dreads with it, and wanted to try it.
I'll post up a picture later or link you to where I got them off...yeah i'll do that xD - http://www.etsy.com/listing/74006238/leaf-dread-beads-set-of-2-you-choose
>Annoyed face< . Some people keep going to me "why not take them out, and re-do them? They're looking a bit messy. They looked nice and neat before." They don't seem to realize that if I re-did them over and over again, they will look neat at first obviously, but then go back to how they are now. I don't care what people think of them. It just annoys me to hell. I'm not taking them out and doing them again. Just so that they can turn into how they are now. Which is normal.
I'm planning on taking my wraps out today... D: i'm sort of going to miss them...although I always keep the thread I wrap them with, so i#ll eventually put them back in. Photo's will probably be up later.
thanks ^^ yeah, i'm getting used it to aha. I have roots D: the colour was meant to be "fire", and i'm scared that when I dye it again the colour is gonna be totally different :/
I know this is so......bad...considering that I have already re-done them. But...i'm not happy with this set either. It's not the dreads I don't like, because I love them. But it's just the placing of them, that I don't like. Like. I have loads on one side, then hardly any on the other. And I know i'm probably gonna get rants and shit about "HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GOING TO RE-DO THEM", Or "YOU DON'T WANT DREADS, YOU WANT THEM AS A FASHION STATEMENT". Because, I do want dreads. I love them. I have already said why, in another post. Anyway. I'm planing on just going natural. I think it'll be better this way.
My un-dreaded hair, at the back. I still have my five in. The ones that have been in the longest. I'd never get rid of them. As I said in a more recent post, I'm just going to go natural. I'm really sick to death of being unhappy with them. I really liked the set, but the placing was just horrible because I had done them myself, and couldn't see the back or anything etc. And sorry to "Vigilanteherbalist2", who doesn't seem to get that I was unhappy with the dreads, except the five I still have in. I don't care what other people think, about me being unhappy with the set I had. And the set before that. I'm not going to keep a set that I'm not happy with. That's like choosing to sit next to an animal that you fear.
I know, I know. It's annoying me more than anything because I just want to just want them to be like the five I still have. I already explained why I wasn't happy with them, and how i'm just going to go natural.
see, what you're not getting from all of the people making fun of you is that you cannot control them the way that you think you can. the nature of the hairstyle is that it is uncontrolled. to have expectations about how they should look is surely to disappoint you. also, the constant updates show your misunderstanding. knots and locking takes month and months to progress...not days.
I KNOW. I am not thick. I know I cannot control how they go. I don't have any expectations of how they should look. Only that I didn't like how they were laced. I had a shitload of dreads on one side, and hardly any on the other. Get it? I do know dreads take months to knot etc. And I really dont give a crap what others think about me not being happy with them. Because any other person that I know in my life, encourages me to do what I want to do, and if i'm not happy with my hair then i'm not. I am going natural. And I know, that to you, and others, it's pretty hard to believe, that after a few times of not being happy with my dreads, purely because of the placing, the size of the dreads, etc, you won't believe me that i'm going to do this. And I will prove you all wrong. Good day.
