#dreadremoval

These two combs have been my best friends in this days long adventure of combing out dreads. (I still have to be a mom with two hands most of the time or else this would go way faster haha.) As you can see from the half of a black comb that this process is hard on combs. I snapped it in half first and then the teeth started falling out, but it's still working! So I will get through this process with these combs haha. Only like 4 and a half more dreads to go! #eclectichippie #dreads #dreadremoval #lovemydreads #combs #lotsofwork #lovingtheoutcome #sofarsogood #cantwait #diydreads #longhair #purple #dreadlocks https://www.instagram.com/p/B7bVqhSAaMQ/?igshid=1hsq6oxikyomv

Done some dread removal tonight on 5 year old Dreadies. Managed to get a few at the frint done in the time we had. I used coconut oil and a crochet hook to tease the dreads apart. This is the forst time i have used coconut oil for this (recomended by another loctician) it worked really well for me and helped the knots slide right out.It's a slow process but I prefer this method to using a comb as a comb has a bigger service area so you're applying the same force across the hole dread meaning more hair breakage. #dreadlockremoval #locremoval #dreadremoval #dreadlocks #dreads #dreadsuk
