ok i am pretty sur this might have been answered i have straight thin hair.

can my hair dread naturally and how do i do that? just not wash it? would i have to use wax? i used to have dreads but i backombed and used wax they turned out fine and i had them for like 6 months but i really want natural dreadies is that possible?

 

everyone is gonna say
"wash every few days with bronners and just leave it alone! every hairtype will dread naturally given enough time!"
( and dont use wax! may as well light your self on fire if you use wax=))

 

haha awsome thank you. yeah i dont really like the feel of wax anyways. bronners?

If Dr.b's isnt for you (made my hair feel sticky and waxy) then try washing with baking soda then rinsing with apple cider vinegar. It's way cheap and leave my hair feelin' AWESOME.

 

I just use any natural shampoo... bronners isn't necessary unless you happen to like using it. Look around the site though, there's lots of information about forming natural locks. For natural dreads just keep em clean and separate after you wash them. That's all.

 

I just did my really fine, silky, straight hair and we sectioned it with rubber bands at the roots, backcombed/ rip & tore, and waxed the ends with like a mini m&m's worth.

 

Ew. Get the wax out. Even if its just a little it might do harm. If not its gross and uneeded anyways.

 

well so far i know backcombing works, i am still iffy on the wax i dont really like it but i am too lazy to section it and i tried for months for it to naturally dread.

 

months? it takes *years* for some hair types. but this is part of why natural dreads aren't for everyone

 

yeah patience is a problem for me if it is years. eh oh well at least i know it will eventually work.

 

As I also have thin, straight hair I wanted to ask a question. Someone stated that you should wash your hair only once every few days, would be be horribly hindering if I did every day with Dr. Bronner's? If I even miss a day of shampooing my hair gets greasy and oily, which to my knowledge slows down the process.

 

read around more here, these questions have been answered many times. people will tell you that the reason your hair gets greasy is it is used to being washed every day. begin a new cycle washing every 2 or 3 days. it will be greasy at first maybe but eventually it will adjust.

 

Fail.

 

I'm sorry to hear that.
