dreadlocks-Loose hairs

Hold mouse over pics for extra info...

Dreadlocks- Yes the loose hair is wearing sun glasses and staring back at the dread. Please note not all dreads wear sun glasses.   Here's the problem...loose hairs. It happens to even the most mature dreadlocks.The good news is they are easy to fix.

First you want to gather the hairs and figure out which dread they are closest to, which one they belong in. This can be a tough call. If you have a couple mirrors handy they can be useful if not I don't know, ask Jeeves. After you get a group of them that you know go together roll them between your fingers as shown. Back and forth, around and around.

Try to fold the ends over on them selves while you are rolling. This will help them knot twice as fast. In the second rolling picture you can see the ends folded over looped back under the thumb.

 

Continue to roll this hair until it knots into a small ball. This may take some time at first but once you get it down you'll be able to do it in less than a minute with your blast shield down. Strong with you the force is...

If you are having trouble make sure the hair is oil free. Wax does not help this process either. You will use wax soon but not yet. Right now clean dry hair is what you want. Clean dry hair sprayed with locking accelerator given a chance to dry will make knotting easier and if you have Lock Peppa this is the time to break it out. Peppa will make quick work of loose hair.

So after you get your ball find a place in the base of the dread and stick it in. Twist and wrap it around the other hair as best you can so it doesn't pop back out. Now its time to wax. Use it to glue that lil bugger in there. As the dread grows the dread ball will dread in with the rest of the hair. Yippie no more loose hairs.
