What's the weirdest question you've been asked towards your dreads?

General Talk

Very funny, this old post. I was looking for this kind of experiences and happened to find it. Countless times it has happened to me, I'm like the Bob Marley in the office.

Working in a really dirty environment

Dread Maintenance

I've also worked on this, and I would definitely use a bandana or a ski mask on winter. You could get rash on your skin with too much paint dust. Generally masks are enough because inhaling this is by far the worst for your health, your hair will be your least damaged over this process (although it could get impregnated which is not ideal).

I’ll take them! if only you weren’t on the other side of the planet,…

And I want you to realize something, and fully accept and internalize it.

I’ve gotten to know you since you joined, and I would say that you are one of the most open people I’ve ever met. You are beating your shyness, just this post shows that.

dreadlocks can be therapeutic often people who have stuff like anorexia use dreadlocking, as a way of beating that.

Anorexia from being constantly controlled just like you had been, not eating is the only way they can feel any control. 
dreading is about letting go of control just letting things be as they want to be and it is a very much a therapy that cures that.

I gotta say that I been pretty impressed by you, and I know that you’re going to be a valuable asset to this community and your dreadlocks is going to be beautiful as well as inspiring, and it’s going to change your life
