Are beads ruining my dreads?
Started this discussion. Last reply by NaturalWomyn Jun 1, 2011. 8 Replies 0 Likes
I have lots of wooden beads that normally I only wear on weekends. I think they might be ripping out some hairs from my dreads because they get snagged on the edges of the beads. Do you think that…Continue

"Ha Ha, it almost look like your sitting on the person behind you! I love jumping pictures."
NaturalWomyn replied to Rusty McDonald's discussion Are beads ruining my dreads?"no matter how gently you crochet, it does indeed break hairs...there's no reason you should have thinning dreads, it's a bit hard to know exactly what you mean w/o a close up pic though, either way as long as you're happy with them."
Prue Dence replied to Rusty McDonald's discussion Are beads ruining my dreads?"my hair doesn't break from crocheting so i put it down to what you said about the size of the bead hole. i find crocheting works really well for me and i haven't found a substitute as good as it but thanks for your thoughts

NaturalWomyn replied to Rusty McDonald's discussion Are beads ruining my dreads?"the thinning of your dreads may have more to do with the breakage from crochet than the beads themselves. Beads don't allow the dread to thicken up anymore than the size of the bead hole, when the rest of the dread is shrinking and thickening,…"
dread gurustaye replied to Rusty McDonald's discussion Are beads ruining my dreads?
"I only have one bead that i remove. I had a beautiful wooden bead that broke in two lengthwise. It made me very sad, so i do remove a wooden that i still have when i wash my hair because i do not want it to crack. I leave all of the other ones in.…"
Prue Dence replied to Rusty McDonald's discussion Are beads ruining my dreads?"i used to wear beads in my hair and i found they were actually thinning the dread. it might have been because they were too tight or something but when i take them out to crochet them i really notice it. you can always just tie some…"

I HATE DRESS CODES.

I just got my dreads 4 days ago in Bangkok and I LOVE them. I've been wanting them for like 2 years and I finally got them. I was on half term holiday until yesterday and when I got to school EVERYONE was telling me how good I looked etc etc. I just found out today that they're "inappropriate for school" or something pathetic like that. She even said to me that the uniform needs to keep the students looking as "normal as possible" and that my hair was "too extreme". So I've got to keep my hair… Continue
