Words of encouragement

I'm thinking of taking the dread plunge again. I found a "dread drawer"(dread accessories) at my parents house and it made me want to take the journey again. My hair is currently very short #3 against the grain (for My people with clipper knowledge) so it's going to be a while. Just wanted some encouragement from the dreaddy community. It's been a while and the site looks a lot different I'm excited!

What made you stop dreading last time?

If it'll make you happy, take the plunge again I think if I ever got rid of my dreads, I'd regret it terribly, they've become a big part of my life.

Tara, it was a combination of things. I didn't like the size of them for one. My gf didn't like them ( which shouldn't have mattered) I actually ended up cutting them on a drunken night I've regretted it since.

Well, for the size of them, even if you go the natural route, you can somewhat control the size by separating them when they're tangling in sections that are too big. If you want them thicker, you can force them to congo while they're still young, and they'll eventually just look like normal dreads.
