posticon Neglect/wool rub routine!


Hi people,i decide to start neglect dreads just under 3 months ago,2/3weeks in i decided to start wool rubbing and have stuck to it daily for 10/20 minutes a day and washing every 3-5 days.Ive had some great results but at the same time its created some really thin baby dreadlocks,I'm not sure wether to keep up the the daily rubbing or now let them do their thing as i have a lot of knots now,maybe its just become routine and I'm rather impatient.my roots have knotted really well but from halfway down my ends. Are still really stragint as you'll see.although i think it really helps my knots,should i stop or carry on as i don't want to cause any damage as I'm enjoying my dreads and the whole journey.

It's looking great! If you want to keep on rubbing,by all means do,as long as you're not doing it so hard that you're breaking the hair. If the sections are too thin you can always join them up at some point. Good luck love!

Re:


Quite often they'll do it by themselves. If not then,when they're more mature you can sew them together.

Re:


This is inspiring! :) Mine are close to that stage, but not quite there yet. But, I do have older partials and well, they do thicken up, as I am sure others with experience could tell you. If I were you, I would leave what you have, maybe wait...a year (to the year mark) and then decide if you want them bigger. Just saying, I have undone one already, and split another (not encouraged, but sometimes you might have to do it).

They look great though!
