I did the twist and rip method and I'm ...Ok so. I did the twist and rip method and I'm an Indian(don't know if that makes a difference tbh lol) and I had a lot of loose hair. I had to make my dreads near before my fam freaked. So I took water and saturated it with salt. And used it on my dreads and palm rolled, however this only seemed to kind of straighten out the stray hair. I thought of crocheting but my crochet needle was too thick so I decided to take the stray hair and dread it around my original dreads hence locking in the rest of my hair too in a way helping the locking process. So I took the bits of loose hair and divided it into pulled it around the dread and twisted and ripped it two to three times and continued until I couldn't and then plan rolled again. It helped A LOT. Hope this helps Lyrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15458488876597118624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535646833591113382.post-64786194733496748092017-11-09T16:45:46.767-08:002017-11-09T16:45:46.767-08:00Hi im a caucasion with cery soft and fine hair.

I'm ...I had dreads for about a year and a half. I'm female and the problem is I have pretty decently locked in dreads but over time the bottom got very loose and it's like a mini fro in some spots. In those spots I used to have dreads. I still got a decent amount but they are thinning and falling out fast. The other thing is that the tips are fully formed, it just gets very thin in the middle the eventually break.<br />Like is it time to cut it and start over? Like the new growth is coming in great but definitely can't reach the thin spots in the middle. What do I do? The longer I leave it the more my hair is falling out coming undone.

The dread itself is thick, but my problem is and I'm just noticing this - I don't want to say the root is thin or thinning because it's hard for me to tell the difference - but the best way I can describe it is it literally looks like the dread is hanging by a thread. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't fallen off...is there anything I can do to help or fix this?Meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12152093361174816230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535646833591113382.post-27495683315409397582016-10-23T08:06:30.310-07:002016-10-23T08:06:30.310-07:00Hey!

My problem is, the top 1-4 inches of almost all of them are all very silky and smooth hairs that is not knotted at all. How can this be addressed? I use salt water sprays and wash every other day, should I just keep at it and let them do their thing, or is there any way to help the knotting process at the top of the dread?

Keeping synthetic dreads in your hair long term to cause your own hair to dread can make your hair become thin and break off. Synthetic hair has weight and when it's wet, it's even heavier. The tugging and pulling could be enough to cause you to be able to see lots of spaces on your scalp.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535646833591113382.post-63968952935820337312016-07-21T20:28:01.995-07:002016-07-21T20:28:01.995-07:00My dreads are about 6 months old and I have loose ...My dreads are about 6 months old and I have loose hair everywhere what do I doNative Goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15690763382896157802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535646833591113382.post-19645085382765823952016-07-21T20:27:37.655-07:002016-07-21T20:27:37.655-07:00My dreads are about 6 months old and I have loose ...My dreads are about 6 months old and I have loose hair everywhere what do I doNative Goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15690763382896157802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535646833591113382.post-33977846966467650392016-07-21T20:26:43.373-07:002016-07-21T20:26:43.373-07:00My dreads are about 6 months old and I have loose ...My dreads are about 6 months old and I have loose hair everywhere what do I doNative Goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15690763382896157802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535646833591113382.post-26816179446315735862016-07-19T19:33:17.778-07:002016-07-19T19:33:17.778-07:00So I've had my locs for about a year now and I...So I've had my locs for about a year now and I just recently had a retwist done but the locs on the back of my head won't stay twisted or lock at the root. The front and sides of my head are fine but in the back they just won't stay locked no matter how many times I retwist them. There's probably a good inch or so of new growth at the root.
