yeah experiment for sure. you prob familiar with shea moisture already but can never go wrong with them. maybe someone itt will come through with better dread head recommendations

Dr Bronners liquid soap is good for cleaning hair, just use a few drops and make sure you rinse it out properly. The peppermint one feels godly

basically its a hair growth oil, I used it during my wave phase to make my hair wolf quicker.

also used it in a deep conditioner mix for a friend of mine when he started getting random bald spots out of nowhere, fixed that for him.

I would say give it a shot with your brushing routine, not as a daily oil but bi weekly at least.

I have this and always end up applying to much and I'm already prone to buildup - how you use this personally?

whats your hairstyle rn?

Short (4c) but I want to freeform and it's already starting to in a few spots (have you ever heard of anything like that btw? Got my hair cut a month ago - low, same length all over - but there's three or so spots on top of my head that are longer and already dreading up)

DM me a pic so I can see exactly what we talkin bout.

Freeform dreads finna freely form, how they start is how they start unique for every individual.

Using the wild growth you want to apply it as close to the scalp/root of the hair as possible.

Couple drops in your hands, rub it around and hit the praying hand method if your hair is long enough.

Does anyone else hate when you go to the barber and they use that black spray / marker s*** on your hairline or beard without asking. It looks f***ing terrible and imma just wash it off anyway and then what? Just line the s*** up

It’s laziness

Barbers tracing your head before they cut?

Nah worse I was getting my beard shaped up and he was doing all this extra beard wash, conditioner, hot towel s*** so I’m thinking to this cut about to be immaculate. Then right before he grabs the blade I feel him run something across the outline of my beard. So I’m thinking it’s like shaving cream or something since he’s using a blade. When I go check my s*** in the bathroom it’s this fill in black s*** and he barely lined my beard up at all forreal. Took a shower when I got home yesterday and it’s like I didn’t even go to the barber

mans out here juugin and finessin, sucks that happened to you.

I use the taliah waajid pre cleansing shampoo thing. It’s peppermint tea tree oil and green. No residue.

Damn I've been looking for a shampoo with either mint or eucalyptus, good looks.

What's pre cleansing mean in this context though? You have to supplement it with another shampoo?

Honestly I just think that s*** is marketing. Makes no sense to me conceptually. I will say it got my hair feelin extra clean and s*** when I use it. All that matters to me.

Hoarding every single gray follicle in my locs, f*** plucking em out

Y’all put conditioner in your hair the night before a cut? I like to do that but not too much of it to where it gets weighed down by oils and s***

Has anyone here ever dealt with seborrheic dermatitis?

My hair been dusty af. I’m about to just go to a salon and let them do something. Anyone got a recommendation near north Jersey

pretty sure my guy @localblaccmane be in jersey

You ever combine em? My current set skinnier than my first one and I think I wanna combine to thicken em out

I normally go to New York for my s*** lol I don't know much about Jersey

tuff. you may just have to ask around from people irl or try a few out with good reviews

Yeah. Fully combined them early last year. Been toying with the idea of doing another combination due to the new job situation being fully WFH and not temp like the last one.

Can ya post a pic? Which method? Crochet?
