I think you guys may have heard of this before but braiding long hair before going to bed really prevents tangles. I had to struggle with my comb everytime I would come out of the shower, but after trying the braid technique, the comb just slid off my wet, out-of-the-shower hair and I was done combing in less than a minute. I would REALLY recommend this to all longhaired guys who have had to struggle with waking up to snarls and tangles. Hope it helps. :)
You are abolutely right. I do it all the time. If you sleep on your back (which I do), another option that works real well is to braid your hair into pig-tails. My only problem is when my partner, who delights in unbraiding my hair during forplay, forgets to rebraid it once I'm spent and sleeping. On those morning I wake up with a mass of snarls and tangles.
Dude I even tried putting my hair in multiple braids and they still remain untangled in the morning.
I think I found your mistake. I corrected it for you. It is a dash and not an underscore in the pic name. The underscore is in the html page as in this link. A little naming inconsistency I guess
It's true even tho I haven't combed my hair in years. I've got full dreads half way down my back and my woman carefully braids them each night so that I don't wake up with my locs all mussed up and crazy. Usually she just pulls them all back and braids a big ponytail, othertimes she does a few smaller braids.
Also, I found silk sheets help a lot with control and they're much more comfortable against your skin.
BTW, you probably know this but your hair's looking great, man! How long you been at it?
We could use some more dread pictures here. Do you have any you'd be willing to share?
Sorry man it took so long to respond. I've been travelling most the month. Since I last read the board I quit my job. Now that I'm back, I'm just catching up and I 've seen your request for a photo. I'm not yet settled in a new place so I can't send you a recent pic. But go to
www.blacklife.com/Roots/
and you can see how I looked in March. They still got my photo there even though you can't reach me there anymore. Thanks for the interest, man. I appreciate it.
Any possibility of seeing a pic of you with your hair braided?
