june 12
ok so far my hair has made it thru a practice and two washings without coming out yay i am stoked. to wash it i used a method i heard online were i wore a du rage and massaged the shampoo into the scalp so that the hair would not come undone. the washings and the football helmet has equaled nothing but a few loose strands and i have one future lock which i call alfalfa which cause it sticks straight up lol .
down below are the pics of a weeks worth of wear and tear let me know wat u guys think

today i went and got my hair interlocked by holly it was 3-4 inches long and i was very excited specialy since her daughter looked very very nice. it took bout an hour but holly who is a massage and sports therapist at MpowerD Massage made the process a very easy going thing. And a first i was a lil awkward bout it and was worried bout the way it looked but i had completely faith in holly. the main thing bout it is that my hair was short and when u get it interlocked it is better to have longer hair for sure . my big reasong for getting it interlocked was because i wanted something that would survive a football helmet and the duration of a football season.
some pics of my many attempts to get dreads
hello
heyllo my name is anthony . i have tried numerous options to getting dreads from braidlocs to twist and rip to gel twists and the all failed due to the amount of activity in my live and the texture of my hair for sure is a bug part of it. my first attempt was gel twists which is wat most youtube videos say to use. and trust me i have done my share of research and everyone from dreadhd and notty boy to drealock forums has their own oppinion on things that are healthy and why not to use this method. I have come to the finalization that its ur hair do with it as u want and wat works for you. not saying that any of these sites and the people who run them are wrong or injust in their believes just saying to each their own basically. as for that this is my journey with my hair i am open to advice but not to negativity. and if it seems like alot of the first few posts are all sent on the same day its cause i have been keeping notes on my phone to use on here. and a special thanks to holly over at MpowerD Massage in sterling virgina. i met her at the herndon festival and noticed how lovely her daughters hair was and approached her at the time i had just twist and ripped my hair. she told me that she had interlocked her daughters hair and had no problems with it. so i went for it and a day or two later i was at her house getting my hair inter locked
