When I returned to Chicago from Cali, I showered and my backcombed dreads had basically washed out. This time around, I did actual research on how to make dreads and came across the twist and rip method. I sat with a mirror for hours and madepoorly sectioned dreads. Looking back, I wish I had sectioned better because months down the road I will undo a few dreads and rip some apart because they were sectioned in weird rectangles and large ovals.

Happy Birthday to me! And Happy one month birthday to my dreadies! I have increased researching dreads and have realized they take a long time to mature. I have been struggling with frizz and just an overall bird nest on my head. I work in a restaurant while I go to school and many people have criticized me. But I tell them to give me time for them to mature. Some people smile and laugh about my eccentricity while others are severely critical and gossipy. It's a true test of who I can trust, who is accepting, and who is superficial.
Anyway, I have been covering them up quite a bit and doing fine with headbands! I wash them every two days. Patience, I tell myself.
