I guess this is sort of suitable for this forum :tongue: So my hair's been starting to dread itself lately, no matter how much I try to resist. Every time I wash my hair I use conditioner, and sometimes the sort of detangling stuff that you can leave in your hair. And no matter how much I try to comb away the dreadies they still stay there persistantly, and even if I manage to get rid of one you can be sure it's back the next day. It's bizarre. So anyway, I was wondering if you guys had any tips on how to handle my badly behaving hair? Coz as much as I like dreads I just don't want them on me.
ignore that...lol but sounds to me like no matter what u wantr they want theyre own thing u can go on and on adding stuff, conditioning like crazy then comb till your sick of combing, or u can let em do theyre thing u could maybe keeep it real short, use gels and crap to control it, if its worth it to u to not have dreads just spend more time daily combing it if your tinme could be used for something better, then let it dread
sounds like my hair before I got my dreads. I got sick of fighting it. I used to use aussie shampoo, that worked really well on getting the knots out
My oldest is having this problem I caught her putting lotion in her hair.. lol She says she wants dreads but wants to wait till I start my new set guess I wasn't much help hmmm... there was this purple hair serum I used before I had dreads.. it was like frizz ease or something :S
i have this issue too. at first i just had really bad sex hair, but now it's to the point that if i don't brush my hair before and after i sleep i get like 17 massive dreads regardless of anything else i try. i seriously think my hair back combs itself in my sleep, and it hurts like hell brushing them out. if anyone has any ideas... do share. :]
hair dreads in your sleep, no backcombing needed.. stop hurting yourself and brushing em out.. best advice i can give r gop on brushin and rippin andf hurtin theres really no other way about it, hair wants to dread..if u dont wsant it to it takes work to prevent..and a bit of pain..
Well I ended up spending about three hours just brushing the dreads out :tongue: Soo much hassle... That was two days ago and since then I've had my hair on French braids to stop it from knotting. Seems to work :tongue:
I use "L'Oreal Hair Detangler Spray for Kids". It works very well for me. I haven't used this spray for a week and my hair is dreading like crazy.
I've tried that It smells so yummy, however it does nothing for my hair except make it really sticky.
