if dreadings as simple as doing nothing but washing and seperating then why do people think they need a loctician?
the question seems silly but the answers nearly sinister
locticians make it seem that dreading takes a degree and a professional patented secret method (most locticians claim to have a secret technique which is either crochet interlocking or just gluing hair together)
they make it seem complicated so you feel you need theyre services or youd be helpless to take care of it yourself
on top of that they will always tell you your hair needs fixing
you could have dreads that are the envy of thousands that get constant resounding compliments and are healthy as can be but a loctician will look at you and say who messed up your dreads come on in and i can help fix them
the results of this are huge numbers of people, otherwise smart well educated people who believe that dreads are so hard to take care of they will not even wash them themselves
they make a monthly appointment every month and get them washed, retightened and worked on..over and over and over.
dreads are the easiest hair in the world to take care of and the easiest style to create
but we live in a world where profits drive people to turn something so simple into something requiring a degree a liscence and a title..even if its a made up word
dreadlocks are tangled hair hair tangles on its own and locks over time
a technician is a highly trained expert in a feild requiring exact knowledge of the einnerworkings of detailed technical things in general maxhines, electronics stuff like that
there is absolutely nothing technical about hair tangling
but by combining the lock and the technician to create a loctician they create the illusion of dreads being complicated and requiring exact knowledge
not just the amazing ability to misplace your comb
