@Remedy13 Indeed. Truce. *shakes hand*

sewing on dreadlocks?

that is without the strangest dreadlock-orientated thing i have ever heard in my life.

[Remedy13]

@SaiKoSeSu lets just agree to disagree. i like neat you like natty XD. truce?

[SaiKoSeSu]

@Remedy13 O... kay? I wasn't saying *you* had unhealthy hair. I didn't even know you had dreads (I usually don't stalk profiles, lol). It's fine that you like your hair and want it to look perfect. It's your hair. But for dreads, in my opinion- as that's all this is about- I like natty dreads with less or zero maintenance better, because it's unique for every person. It's "theirs" so-to-speak. I'm not trying to get on bad terms or anything, even though your op was kinda rude. Anyway, that's all.

@SaiKoSeSu umm i have healthy hair (dreads) i make SURE of that. i've had my dreads for 2 years and they touch my shoulders now and the look (in my opinion) perfect...i get compliements where ever i go...i understand not everyting can be perfect, but it matter when something need to be attractive and appealing...

[SaiKoSeSu]

@Remedy13 Oh, also, what I meant with the "perfect (and healthy)" part, was that in the quest for perfectly uniform dreads, it usually breaks and withers away the actual hair itself, making them very fragile and casing them to break off. Or, in the case of wax, can make mold and just be a nightmare. Super healthy dreads are usually the ones that don't look perfect. That was just what I meant by that.

[SaiKoSeSu]

@Remedy13 A person shouldn't get dreadlocks if their aim is for perfect (and healthy) hair. If they want that, they should just get braids or dreadfalls. I've realized recently that people who constantly "maintain" their dreads are doing more harm than good, and end up having really thin, damaged hair in the long run. Always poking and prodding instead of just leaving them alone. That's why I've decided that I'll use the patience method. But, that's just my opinion.

[Remedy13]

to be honest she shouldn't be giving tips on locks....if someone's locks look like a flock of birds got into a fight in their hair....they shouldn't give anyone advice....
