Dreads or No Dreads, that is the question
dready interests
One persons list of pros and cons of having dreads is bound to be different from someone elses... Just because hair type/skin type,hygienedifferences, sleeping positions, humidity, and many other factors change the way things are for one person opposed to another.
So just keep in mind that just because most people have dandruff... doesn't mean that you will definitely get dandruff if you dread. Ioccasionallyget a tiny bit of dandruff, but I wouldn't call it a con, just because its been easily manageable so far.
As many others said... dreads seriously will change you! But how exactly.... is completely up to you and your environment. (Both your physical and mental environment)
In my experience.. Dreads have changed the way I take care of myself. I used to be into all kinds of special skin products. expensive shampoos/conditioners, and stuff like that.. But now I really enjoy making my own shampoo, and body wash, and after shave for mysignificantother, lotions, face wash, face moisturizer... and tons of other skin care products!
The only cons I've really experienced are that my hair sticks to zippers and velcro. Also, the texture of each dread kind of feels like velcro when its on your neck.... so it can get a lil itchy.
