Member Journals and Timelines
December 15, 2012 was the year that I have decided that I will let all of my vanity go. I have decided that I should just love whatever that will happen to my hair and me. This year was bittersweet. It had full of sadness, loneliness, but it also had an overflowing happiness and love.
And just to let everyone understand, I did not choose to have dreads just because to LOOK COOL. I decided to go w ith this hairstyle for it best describes me, they are still young and still maturing and so am I. These dreads looks like those rough and ragged ropes. I have actually named some of my dreads you know? I have a dread which is called MAMA, and I also have TATAY, THE CREATOR, LIFE AND DEATH, KUYA RHON, KUYA HAROLD, ANNOYING (symbolizes all the annoying situations and people that I have and will encounter in the future), those are only some of them - and they are all attached to my head, which means that, they will always be on my mind, my soul, my body, with me. And as my dreads will mature and grow -the growth will symbolize my memories with them, and the growth of our relationship as well.
But anyhow - I have learnt so manyyyyyy lessons about life and people. And one of the most greatest lesson that I have ever learned was, that we COULD NEVER EVER KNOW SOMEONE JUST BY THEIR LOOKS AND THE WAY THEY INTERACT WITH US. We will never know someone unless we will understand, love, accept and respect them.

Day of Remembering All Souls :)
General Talk
Hello Beautiful Souls! :D So a few months ago I have posted about an event that I wanted to do on this coming November 2. I have decided to make it a whole week celebration from Nov 2 - Nov 7 
Here is the poster that I have created for this movement.
I am also looking for people who are passionate and interested about this to help me in this event. So please email me here: rememberallsouls@gmail.com Unfortunately, I cannot pay back any fees for helping me about this event because I want this to be a open hearted and no money involve movement
INFO:
This is an event which is happening on Nov 2 - Nov 7. During this week, especially on Nov 2 - we are remembering all our deceased loved ones. But this time, we are taking it to another level by not just remembering the dead but also remembering all the living souls.
On this day, we remember all the cancer patients, rape victims, war victims, violence victims, suffering souls, and all souls as mu ch as possible. We also just not remember only the humans, we used the word SOULS to refer to each and every living and dead being on this Earth. Animals are definitely in too!
The event is really an easy going one, yourself, or a group of friends or people could make an artwork, song, a poem, a dance, or anything that they could dedicate to a certain group of people or individual. Everyone if welcome to submit their works
I hope everyone will take part and spread the word on this event. Thanks and I hope you had a great day everyone! :D

Introduce Yourself
Totally agreeing with Jules! And you could also say that messines, loops and bumps gives your dreads a unique look which is so awesomeee <3

why should you be worried about offending them when they have just offended you by implying your dreads need fixing?
Natural or Twist N Rip?
Dreading Methods
Heeey Tiff! :D In my opinion about the way your dreads want to be, Natural is the best way. It is more exciting than pre-making dreads by twist and rip. In natural, you will never know what will happen tomorrow :3 It is a pretty exciting and entertaining journey if you'll go natural. It is also much stronger in built and hold. So Natural all the way! May the heavens guide you in making your decision and Take care! xoxox
How often do you separate baby dreads?
Dread Maintenance
Heeeeey brother! I would like to share my experience, during my first 3 months I needed to separate it 4-6 times a week because it was really dreading up real quick. But after I reached my 3rd month mark, I only separate it like 1 or 2 times a week because they are now teenagers (nearly mature). I guess, the speed of the dreading process really plays a big role. The faster your hair dreads, the more often you need to separate it. That's all from me, much love! Happy dreading to everyonee ~ :D
