Okay, so I’ve been thinking about getting dreadlocks for a while, you know, the whole “dreadlocks women” aesthetic. I finally took the plunge and I’m here to spill all the tea on how it went down.
Step 1: The Deep Dive (aka Research)
First things first, I hit up the internet – hard. I spent hours looking at pictures, reading articles, everything. I wanted to get a good grasp on what to do before start.
Step 2: Finding My Person
I found a shop that work on dreadlock, they looks so * I decided to make an appiontment.
Step 3: The Prep Work
Before the big day, the workers told me to have my hair super clean and dry. No conditioners, no oils, nothing. Just straight-up, squeaky-clean hair. I used a clarifying shampoo to make sure I got all the gunk out.
Step 4: The Main Event
Okay, so the actual process,my hair has been worked on small * took for a long time,I even dozed off a couple of times, and when my head gets sore,I will get some rest.
Step 5: The Aftermath (aka Maintenance)
My hair looks so cool,I just keep imaging how good I am after this long time * worker told me to keep them clean and moisturized is a whole new job.
Here are the tips:
- Washing: I use a residue-free shampoo to avoid buildup.
- Moisturizing: I learned that keeping dreadlocks moisturized is key to preventing breakage. I’m using light, natural oils to keep them hydrated without making them greasy.
- Patience: My hair is getting better with days past,I just keep waiting and do the right care.
So, that’s my dreadlock journey so far! It’s been a bit of work, honestly, but I’m loving the results. It’s a commitment, but it’s totally worth it if you’re into the look and ready to put in the effort.
