Don't panic- it's perfectly normal!

Think about it, before you were Knotty, every time you brush and style your hair little bits come out on your brush, right?

Well, when your hair is in locks all those hairs that would ordinarily fall out with regular styling are staying inside the dreads- hence why it looks like there's LOADS of hair coming out at once.

Fret not, you won't end up patchy.
