ok so iv had dreads nearly 6 months and 1 or 2 of my dreads are acually gettin tight the rest are barely knotting but i know they will in time but on all my dreads i have like loose hairs that come out like halfway down the dread or watever and just hang alongside it so i have dreads in the middle, covered by long hair pretty much. its not totally noticable cos i palm roll quite a bit now so they kind of stick to the dread but was just wondering if ther is a good way to get these loose hairs into my dreads? would hemp wrapping help atall im not sure... cheers
Your best bet is a Crotecting hook (Think they use 'em in knitting?) Available at a craft store for a few quid i reckon. Or a latch hook for like a fiver. I must admit I got a dreadHQ one.. but it is really good. Sorta has a hoop that you tie the hair around and it locks when you pull it through the dread.. Wait your in scotland.. theres a lock shop near you.. sec i'll find the link http://www.hairlynks.co.uk/shop/hairlynks_on_line/system/index.html 6.50 is a bit of a rip off i reckon.. but they are well worth getting. Worked wonders on my tips. No shipping costs on that though Dreadworx.co.uk do a cheaper one at 4.95 but i don't know how good that is. http://www.dreadworx.co.uk/dreadproducts/tools/index.htm Woahh lots of information! Hope that helps
i got a one of those hooks at a second hand store with the craft supplies. I was only $1, maybe thats some place you could check out
geez ya dont nbeed all that crap at all just relax & let time take care of it wanna know how much i spent on my dreads? $0 well no i do buy alotta dr bronners & lotsa hats n stuff but the actual dreading..not a cent no dreads should ever be perfect either they will have hairs sticking out..& loops n lumps & u name it thats where they get theyre personality every 1 like a fingerprint..unique just leave em be, save your $ go on a trip to the woods for a few months smoke a jiont n relax time will do the rest
