Re: 3rd time dreaded, 1st time wool rubbing. ASAP help!
It seems to be what people who have wool rubbed did, and recommend.

Re: 3rd time dreaded, 1st time wool rubbing. ASAP help!
i wool rubbed, but ive never done any ripping, I was doing it each night, used some dh pepper stuff seemed to work well.
my hair is getting there, tips are unknotted, it looks a bit like normal hair and a bit like dreads, I get a lot of 'rasta' comments at work.
I like the way it looks, i think it looks more natural than back combing or crocheting, they do congo if you keep rubbing, I think all you are doing is speeding up the process, its almost like fastforwarding the movment that would take place over years to form real knots.

Re: 3rd time dreaded, 1st time wool rubbing. ASAP help!
minsoon, that's exactly how I feel about wool rubbing, it looks more natural. Make no mistakes, I ain't pretending to be some rasta, I just prefer dreads that way.
I'm starting to understand more about ripping etc from all your comments, it seems the amount and timing of ripping is down to a variety of factors so I'll just keep rubbing occasionally and see what happens with my hair.
I am getting the restricted movement you mention, hudsinimo, but I feel I can't cut as the "dreads" aren't solid enough yet.

rollin6, I don't think there's any need to state the obvious.
I need my dreads to be is some shape beyond a mess before I start work in an office in October.
I'm not pretending to be a rastafarian.
