no offense but u r stupid, just read on this site adout dreads,The Site
You realize you can't wash your hair for a year while it grows, right?
i had dreads and my best mate does at the moment...
i got rid of mine to try and get a job (brushed them out after 6 months) but im planning on getting them back again this summer.
ha yea i had to get my hair cut after the rents busted me smokin and just to piss em off i decided to stop doing anything to my hair so it would eventually dread up. luckily after 2 days i looked at that site and realized that was a stupid idea. so in about a year it should be long enough and i'm gonna be that stereotypical college pothead with dreads who plays at coffeeshops for tips to pay for food
yep. I've got dreads. This summer they'll be 5 years old. I've tried all ways of getting my hair to lock, from natural no washing and combing to backcombing and perm solution.
rescently I've bleached them and coloured them orange again. I put about 4 synthetic strands through them to give it all more volume.
looks like fire! but yeah I've got a best friend as hairdressers so...
oh and I placed dreadlocks for a friend. It took about 6 hours of intense backcombing.
I could talk all day long about dreads...but I better go take a shower. adios.
I have em, if you didnt notice. For fucking 13 years and havent been cut, combed once.
and you can wash em. do it with bar soap. that has no other stuff to get stuck in em.
so jus lett it do its thing. It will clump more if you are active and sweat and bounce it while running. it will get salt chrystals to tangle them and then they leave when in water leaving baby locks
let me advise.....we chicks are not crazy about dreadlocks, unless you like the hairy underarm, no makeup natural type. you can't run your fingers through them, people judge you harshly, (think it doesn't matter? don't fool yourself, a cop would not search the car of a straight looking young person, sport some dreds and one sticker on your car, prepare for your beatdown) If you don't keep on a pretty high maintenence schedule then they stink and look gross, and it is a very dated look.
Dissagree at your own peril, but I am a hot and high maintenence chick, with hot and high maintenence chick friends, it seems universal among us that your personality, wallet and cock would all have to be huge for us to get over the dread situation.
^^^^that wasnt shallow or concieded at all
Dreads aren't my thing. I'll take my normal long hair any day.
i had dreads 4 ten years just cut them off afew months ago.
no it wasn't, it was true. stop calling me things, didn't you just go off on how people where not nice on these boards?Quote:

You can run yer fingers easily through dreads and it feels very similar as when it happens through 'normal' straight persons hair. Each person has an own grooming regime for their own dreads. We don't all produce the same amounts of body juices. So each to judge on their own how often they need to maintain their dreadies.
Oh and it's not a look, it's a life style.
And thankfully I don't live in your damned country, luckily I don't experience all that closed mindedness neither do my fello dreadies over here.
Plus whats this bullshit about no makeup types? Aren't we being a bit stereo typical? Sure you got those. I bet ya a million their are just as many female dreadies who do use makeup gracefully. Of which I am one.
oh and by the way, in this comment of yours are you directing this soully on white people with dreads or is your reaction different to black people and their dreads?
I didn't mean to take your reaction quite that personal but you come across as a know it all, and you must admit no matter what the age or experience, no one knows it all.
Each to their own descisions and good luck with the consequences.
first of all, if you want to wear locks, (i don't indentify with the dread part) you have to keep your hair clean and twist your hair once a month. i've been wearing locks for almost six years and my hair is an inch from the base of my back.
and one other thing. rastafari is a religion not only identified by wearing locks.
oh...and scarlett, there are some sisters (like myself) who truly digs a man, (black or white-or other) with locks. you can have a man with a huge memeber and have no clue of what to do with it, but that's for another thread. still luv ya though.
see it's times like this when you get to see just how small my hometown was....;-)
I'm not trying to harsh on you dude. I have experienced the difference first hand in how people treat you.
I used to be fat and gothish, I got NO slack from anyone, anywhere. That is, if they payed attention to me. Now I'm normalish, I dress nicely and ou would be amazed at how accomodating people can be. I get free shit and bumped up in lines all the time, for nothing....
White people with dreads is actually quite racist, each dread represents a year of slavery and a white guy with dreads is taking the piss a bit. No-one will mind where you come from cause not a lot of people know about that, just don't go to Jamaica (sp?) cause you'll probably get killed.
i've taken you've witnessed this yourself?Quote:

plus where did you get that story about the slavery thing?
what about the rastafarians, are they discriminating the other blacks because I doubt their reason for having dreads has to do with that.
whatever you know.
