Thanks I am going to have my husband help me start these tonight. I will let you know how they turn out. P.S. What is a sea salt paste?
Ok on my way to the store, so how much sea salt should I get. My hair is just to my shoulders. Do i have to use sea salt?
Yes I will sent a pic. of my hair when it is done. spiritedmama- So I did the sea salt paste wash lastnight and I am working on back combing my hair today. I am tieing some relly cool looking purple yarn into some of my hair, and some wooded beads too.
I’ve been kicking around the idea of doing dreads myself so I’ll be interested to hear all about it Lilt2n. Thanks for posting those intructions SpiritedMama! My biggest fear is screwing it all up ala Zoe’s friend, but I guess worst case scenario would be I’d have to cut off all my hair (which would probably be good for my vanity!)
Never having dreads before…what happens when you want to take them out? I have long wavy hair (and too much vanity) :) to want to shave it off. Is it possible to comb them out?
Hello girls how is everone today? When I got rid of my dreads last time I had to cut my hair realy short. Spiritedmama how often should I do the sea salt paste wash? I have been doing alot of highway driving and letting the wind mess my hair up realy good. Have’nt got around to ratting my hair yet, trying to juggle being a New mama. Also been working on some art for an upcoming show.
Is there anything I can do so my hair is not so greasy?
Thanks Spiritedmama I will mix some up tonight.
ok so got the dreads in, I put rubber bands in the top and bottoms of them. How long should I keep them in?
right on good luck. thanks for the info.
Hey lilt2n, how did your locks go?
I am new to this site, and have started locks (2 weeks in now) I went to capilocks in Paris to get them started (recommended by a lady with gorgeous locks who had hers started there) They use the rubbing method and a vegetable glue to help separate and strengthen. So far it's working, my hair is breaking into sections exactly where it wants to and a glue bath every 2-3 days is helping it along. Each day I rub my hair with a towel and break down any thick bits. For now my hair is psycho - I look a little like side show bob - but on the whole, it's a gorgeous journey as my hair is doing what it wants to do.
