Have you thought about interlocking to maintain your dreads instead twisting. That way you can workout and not have to worry about re-twisting. Also I believe that it creates a stronger loc.

I used Dark & Lovely by SoftSheen Carson to dye my locs around month 6, and the color has stayed pretty well (i'm in month 10 now). They have permanent as well as semi-permanent colors, I'm sure you'll find a shade with them you like.

P.S.
Your locs are amazing

Zayna---> Head bands save the day somethin' serious. This was the case back when I had loose hair but I haven't thought about it for my locs. Genius idea!

Hey Loc Rocker!

I was thinking about your twisting after work outs dilemma. I'm a Muslim gal who wears hijab so I don't really have to worry about the fuzzy roots before my one month retwisting. BUT-I do know how annoying it can look.

This is not a complete solution but for myself I have a collection of soft funky head bands (polka dot, silver)to rock in the week(s) before retwisting. They can really spice up an outfit and locs always look nice pulled back : )

Thank you, darlings!! And thank you msfullroller....

Oh yeah, latching is great and once you get the hang of it the speed improves. I really liked her demonstration, along with NubianLockedPrincess' and MsButterfli on YouTube, I finally understood how to do it.

I think some people occasionally palm roll the length.

Your locs are looking fantabulous!! It won't be long now 'til 1 yr.

They look wonderful. Mine are just turning 6 months. I work out every day and my head sweats profusely, because this I have to shampoo my locs just about everday. You should try latching, it works well, and it wash/sweat proof.

I am sure with some time the combined locs will get the message and form into one :)
I am so proud of you :)
