Hey everyone, washed my hair after going to the pool last night, the girlfriend rolled my hair, a good nights sleep later, this is what my dreads looked like in the morning. Hehe, look at my left front one, the tips getting all knotty!! Previous update link: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=366567 Before I even had dreads: http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=316662&f=209 :cheers2:
derry nice. You going for the rolled look or are you just rolling them because you think you have to?
Lookin good! I like the dreads on you very much, they flatter your essence. Mine are 10 1/2 months; I need to take some pics. I'm curious to see pics of everyone who has dreads between 10 months and 1 year old. Not to compare, because every body's hair is so different, but just for fun...see what other hairs are doing with themselves around the same time frame.
I think they look too twisty, I would stop rolling but that's me. You're cute though with dem puppy dog eyes.
WTS^^ Stop twisting them, it will just loosen all the hair in the outer sections, breaking knots meaning you have to do it more and more and more until they eventually look like unwashed-plaits Lookin' good.
are they realli 10 months? they don't look that mature tbh. I'd just leave em if I were you, sometimes I think rolling before the dreads are mature can fuck up your hair dreading as your putting the hair in it's place. like rolling down, smoothing it out and stopping it from knotting up. that maybe just in my head though-doh!
aww, that made me feel a tiny bit bad but its cool, i've had some friends tell me that rolling it at this stage is useless, and I should twist the hair instead, but I don't like how they feel after twisting. My hair is really really straight naturally, so I feel like if i don't roll I have a huge mess of loose hair on my head.
