thickness

Ok so I've been planning this post out so that maybe I make some sort of sense.

I want my dreads to get thicker and I was wondering if they are going to get thicker as my natural hair colors grows out and my hair gets stronger?

My hair was extremely damaged when I started my dreads so I really don't know if they are going to get thicker I was thinking of redoing them or something. idk advice pretty please.

 

try congo

 

how do I do that exactly?

I sound stupid

 

Dont start over.
That will damage your hair more and take longer.

Congoing occurs naturally, you just don't separate.

 

can I speed up the congoing?

 

Can't you just kinda bind a couple o' dreads together?
I don't think they'll get any thicker than the root base they are coming out of...but it's more than possible I'm talking total arse

 

yeah with congoing you just wrap 2 dreads around each other and bead them together

 

Ok cool I'm making new ones with my hair in the front that isn't dreaded

 

How old are they? My dreads have become a lot thicker as they have locked, patience may be all you need.

 

congoing can make em thicker if u just dont seperate but u may wanna give emj time, they maty thicken ..if u give em time and dont seperate u can let emj thicken as they confgo thern decide if u wanna rip em or let em combine but if u force a congo then they get thicker your stiuck with it

 

The only thing that goes into my head when reading this is

congocongoconGO!! congocongoconGO!! congocongoconGO!!

*Trails off in tune*

 

when you have normal hair and you take a shower and all that hair that gets pulled out ends up in the drain. you know that ball of hair at the bottom of the shower? yea, when you have dreads all that hair gets knotted up and stays in the dread. kinda gross but the hair that would normally shed makes the dreads thicker over time

 

True My shower plug hole never gets clogged anymore!!

I used to have to clean it out every couple of weeks xD

Awesome

 

I'm trying to be patient but its hard sometimes

 

Hehe, and the roller thingy bit on the hoover. Always used to get hassled about my shed hairs wrecking that. And when they're pink it's hard to blame someone else...

"Waiter! There's a dread in my soup!" lolol

 

Roffle xD Haha, I can actually imagine that... Let's make sure SE never serves us soup!! There'd be 3 foot dread-drop-offs in it xD

Haha just had another crazy-photoshop-worthy thought... WHAT IF dreads DID fall out like hair '( ) and they clogged the plug hoooole, they'd reform in the depths of your pipes and POUNCE at you in the shower xD

AAHHH!!! A reformed dread monster coming from the depths of my pipes!!

Jees I have too much time on my hands...

Or just a silly mind

I prefer the latter ^^
