I've been wanting to dread my hair for a while now but i convince myself not to. I work in hardwood floors and there is constant dust all day long. I don't know to much about dreads, i'm assuming that would not be a good thing if you want to grow them naturally. Anything helps.
Ok. Thanks.
I'm a Masonry Laborer so I understand your trepidation. On the job I get dust and brick bits in my hair sometimes, even mortar on occasion. I do my best to keep em' wrapped up while working and I haven't noticed a problem. Having brick bits in your dreads is annoying but can be worked out with your fingers. Dust will rinse out with water if you're diligent about washing and rinsing your hair as I am. I'd say if your going to go for it: invest in a hat that will cover up your dreads.
