About myself

Hello,I am Debra and have had my dreadlocks since 2001.Had them done in prison,did 10 years for vehicular manslaughter.Drove drunk killing a grandmother in 2001.Cell mate had them and asked if I wanted to try this.Said sure and liked them ever since.At first my parents didn't recognize me at first the first time they visited me.They thought it was cool.I will never get rid of them,have brought me good luck since I got out changing my life around.

wow thats the 1st time ive heard that story

but many dread for many reasons and they take on alot of meaning

They mean everything to me,I have learned my lesson although I had a rough life before this

me too thats why i havent cut mine in 29 years

Two minor in possessetion tickets at 16 and 18,assaulted a police officer when I was 17.Includes becoming a mom at 16 and 18.So far my son and daughter whom are 24 and 22 say my dreadlocks are cool.Told me never to get rid of them.
