when will they lock

Ok so my roots have ton of hair under the actual dread but im seeing no knots forming an it has about 1 to 2 inches of regular hair growing out of it what should i do.

Should i just leave it i dont wanna walk around with 5 inches of unlocked at my roots. lol

 

it should dread up within a few months, if not eventualy it will. don't think about it too much and the time will fly by. i advise not messing with it and letting it do it's own thing on it's own. i'm at 4 months (i think) and my roots are doing pretty good now.

 

mine looked the same way and they suddenly dreaded all on their own.

 

hmmm the dread works in very mysterious ways??????

 

Great pictures. How long was your hair when you started out?

 

I feel the same way. I started mine out backcombed at the "minimum" length, and some of it it just regular hair at the roots, and then the back part is somewhat matted and I have to separate it.

I think you just have to go with it. I rubbed my roots everyday and I still have at least an inch of straight growth.

 

some hair just magically dreads its roots by itself with hardly anything. some takes a good couple of inches before it really starts dreading itself. some, like mine, just doesn't want to. so i rub my roots every week after i wash (although i'm gonna start washing twice a week i think, at least for a little... my scalp's doing wierd things), and that keeps them nice and tight locked up.

 

but people say to just leave em an let them go but now i here people saying that it wont dread at he root so you gotta rub them. It should dread by it self

 

play with your damned hair!
