veryy worried noobie :)
So,I just got dreadlocks by back combing about 4 days ago..i have very straight hair and they turned out very soft and flat.i got really turned off,but the majority of my friends are dreaded (they're all guys) and they told me to give it time because rome wasn't built in a day.i've put elestic bands at the roots and on the ends,though i 've heard loads of different opinions about the concept.it's just my hair doesnt look like dreadlocks at all.it looks like matted hair and it wont stay in place,so currently i'm pinning up my hair to my head to avoid looking like sonic the hedgehog.i really do looove my dreads,as i really got them because of the rastafarian fact and not just the fashion statement.i really do need help and support as i m thinking i d never get the dreads i longed to have for ages.
On the day i wrote this,i was totally giving up...its just 6 days on..i got about 4 compliments today,my dreads are knotting a liiil bit everyday
dreads take time to develop, they look neat and tidy the first day uve got them done, but the second day they start looking worse for ware, but thats natural, as with straight hair, its not naturally knotted, therefore they tryt and go back to their original shape, and become slightly looser, but over time, your hair will get used to being knotted up, and tangled, and then they will start maturing, and looking a hell of a lot better, if u look at my photos, u'll see how they went from proper messy/loose, to now, where they look alot more formed and mature, uve just gotta give it time, and some affection
you don't have to give up modeling entirely... you just need to find the right kind. My roommates cousin models and has very sexy dreads. The concepts are just less vogue fashion and more expressive and artistic.. very cool! If I can find some pic I will ask her if I can post them. She also models for art classes she has been painted a couple times too. You gotta forget you have hair then one day you will look in the mirror and be like "oh dreads...... OH DREADS!!!!" Don't stress love!
Yeah I'm exactly the same way. Rastafarian and all. My hair was extremely soft before I got dreads. I would wash it and after drying it with a towel or hair dryer it looked crazy but about an hour later it's completely strait and perfect. I've had mine for about a month and they look like frizzy little hair balls (if you can tell by my picture, it's old and they still look that way). It'll probably end up taking a while but it'll be worth the wait.
hahaha I know how you feel, I grew up in a super small town where everyone knew everybody and if anything happened people talked about it... it's lame, but they can get over hair
yeaa probably i d just tie them back :] who cares whether i look spiked up?
you can't even have like a thin sports headband in? look at my pics with my hair pulled back thats what I use, and if my hair was just a bit darker it wouldn't even be noticable
just dont worry bout how u look?or tie em back
thats what i m doing
if it's sticking up just throw a headband on or something when you go out. all other times try and keep them down though so they can get some movement
