dreadlocks: week one

Yesterday I washed the dreads, soaked them in a sea salt solution, and once they were dry I started backcombing them *again* in order to tighten up the ends.

It’s been a lot of work, my hands are incredibly sore, but the dreads (and roots) are looking much better.

Mom tells me, “I’ve never seen you put this much work into your hair before.”

I’ve never wanted to do something with my hair so much before. It’s totally worth it.
