Palm Rolling

Palm rolling is used to help dreads tighten and get loose fuzzies matted into the dread. It works much better than "twisting" with the fingers. To palm roll you simply grab the dread between the base of your palms and rub it back and forth vigorously. It's a bit like rolling Play-Doh between your palms to make it long and skinny. Rub the dread where it's loose, usually at the roots. Palm rolling works well anytime but the best time to palm roll is right after washing your dreads and spraying them with Locking Accelerator and letting them dry with Accelerator on them. The hair will feel dry and fuzzy and it will tangle really easily. After a good palm rolling session, you can work a little dread wax into them to smooth them out.
