    I cant belive time passes so fast. So yeah 2 years exactly for me next month. I started them with backombing and sewing them. Ive never used wax. For the last couple of months the only thing i do is to rub them in my head after i take a shower while they are still wet. They plait really good and hard that way. When they were first made they were really thin, but they are getting fatter and fatter with growth. I have 2 congos.I wash them with whatever shampoo i find in the bath, i have never put any lotion on them well...thats all i guess.
    and again im sorry for the bad quality of those pix (shitty phone camera )

    god... I envy your length. I lost all of mine. It's the crocheting methinks.

    no, I wasn't very clear so I could see why you'd think I meant that. I meant that it seems people who crochet their dreads lose less length... but I'm just going by what I've seen in pictures because I don't know anyone in real life who got dreads via that method. So just speculating. Her dreads look crocheted to me so I just assumed...

    and damn girl! Your hair shrunk to your shoulders and grew that long in less than 2 years?!?!?!
