Monster dread: separated post-birth

So, I used to have this monster dread at the front of my hair line. Is was super chunky and a bit uncomfortable at the scalp. It has a natural separation at the root, so I started gently pulling it apart to create two locks.

This continued to a certain point until the hairs would simply not budge. So...I did it. I allowed my bf to take a razor to the monster lock and split it down the middle.

Monster lock is black on the inside and blonde on the outside. There has been no loosening of fall-out. This occurred after three years of locking though.

So there.

 

Well hopefully it stays locked!

I have a few monster dreads myself.... but i like them and they aren't uncomfortable.

 

Well done vig! There's no reason not to use scissors or a razor to split dreads unless you're a nazarite imo.

 

Monster dreadzorz are win Mine are mostly on the back of my head, so they aren't too uncomfortable. Must have been really bad to have one on your front hair line ><

 

why is it black on the inside?

 

Because it has no soul. Or I failed to bleach out the black dye...who knows.

 

I put a pic of the split-lock in my timeline thread.

 

WOW! I love your timeline and your locks! Just a quick question/s? How soon after backcombing did you dye your hair? and which bleach did you use to get it to go that light?

 

my hair was dyed black when i backcombed it. About a year or so in I bleached it about 6 times to get the black dye out.
