HELP pls!

that's all I've ever seen around here too... the stuff they sell in drugstores for sunburns *shrugs* I'm at work right now, but what's the other ingredients in there out of curiosity? Just wondering what the 1 percent is.

 

Allantoin or something *shrug*

 

I bought an aloe very plant for like $8. I have on idea about the gel. :S I do however remember reading something about this on here in the past though.

The 1% is usually witch hazel and preservatives. You can purchase aloe vera for oral consumption that is 100% pure.

 

got the 99.9% one

here's the pics. the dreads look kinda wet cause we just came in from rain

this is before aloe:


this is after aloe:


and this is one of the congos (hopefully to be?):

 

they don't look too bad. i use aloe from a bottle. as long as it doesn't have something like alcohol or witch hazel added, it should be ok. or buy a plant.

 

Wow his hair is long!
They do look better

 

Wow good job What did you do in the end?

 

They are looking great. He must be happy.

 

yeah,i thought they were literally hanging off by strands,did you wave some magic wand or what girl?

 

It's almost as though some of the maintenance tips and tricks can actually help....

 

They look awesome! Good job!

 

thanks
they were literally hangin off by strands. i just weaved the loose hair in using some thread and needle and no, the thread comes out fully, i just use it to attach hair to the needle. basically his loose hair works as a thread for his locks, especially useful when trying to congo some. as for the roots i just backcombed some loose hair a bit and sewed them in the dread. some bigger patches were the birthplace for some new dready babies and i managed to wist and rip them finally.
finished it off with some aloe and voila

my bf thinks i should open a salon now. i can be my own lawyer and manager too there

 

glad it all worked out =) definitely a big improvement.
