I have had my locks for over a year and they're pretty matted. Do I have to keep on using the wax and keep backcombing my hair?

Whenever your locks are really tight, together and strong - fully developed - without many loose ends anymore, you can just use KBoy for maintenance after that . Its just for giving them a little help in the first year or two, keeping them together so they lock faster, getting the loose hairs in, etc. You may just want to smooth down the frizzes with it every once in a while, or use it to condition them against breakage and brittleness. That’s a good thing to keep doing, too.

article I first put dreads in my hair about a year and a half ago. Things were great until a month ago when I ran out of your bar soap and instead bought a bottle of selson blue to cute my crazy itchy scalp. it was pretty nice at first, it made the roots of my hair pretty nappy, but after about 3-4 days, the bearable fragrances drifted off, and the main ingredients stench crept forth: sulfur. the smell was horrid! anyhoo, i havent used that crap for about 2 months, but everytime i wash, i can still smell the sulfur, and so can others. i've tried tons of things, but the smell is there. now that i think about it, had i started off buying another shampoo bar, i probably wouldnt be in this situation, but im now wondering if there is anything i could possibly do to lift the smell of sulfur out of my hair? The constant washing also means my hair is constantly damp and it's musty now too. Double-whammy of stank.
Wow- sorry to hear about your horrible...

article I don't want big locks that every body will notice - I want short ones like a little below my ear lobes - but my concern is school and the public. I'm only 12 and a half. By the time my hair's all at the right length and its all dreaded, I'll be 13, so is it alright to have them at a young age? And also I'll be a WHITE dreaded 13 year old. Does that sound ok?
No, we don't think you are too young to have...
