Bob Marley and Dreads?

General Questions

Yeah, Most people associate them with him, some are close-minded and probably can't be convinced otherwise, most just don't know any better,Of course if you're wearing a giant Bob Marley shirt with Rasta color beads and 2day old dreads, then that probably wouldn't help some peoples opinions

Bob Marley and Dreads?

General Questions

because they have no idea what they are talking about,the fact they even know what dreadlocks are puts them far ahead of most people.

He's probably not as oblivious to it as you might think, you could suggestively say something along those lines to him about how much he trust her,but then again if things between you aren't gonna get better you could be blunt and say despite w/e is/was between I want you to know this because I still don't wanna see you hurt, then say i heard so/soI hope it works out for the best tho

Good to be back

Hey man, Re-Welcome

Seriously, ouch!

General Talk

oh damn, nevermind, I was gonna say just rip them more often and you don't really feel it as bad,sometimes when I don't rip for a few weeks/month those are what hurt, but I usually do it while being concentrated on something else,oh yeah,, an don't let anyone else do it for you, I remember someone doing that and they pulled like they were trying to rip them both off my head in opposite directions, bastard hahaha

A major setback.. again??**SIGH***

Life Issues Facing Dreads

avoid all the suggestions of cutting your hair again, lolyou know, you reminded me of myself, I was about to just say something else be4 I remembered that I to was getting frustrated by alot of setbacks be4 i finally started dreading, "work, hair length, getting someone to help me backcomb my hair, *I was under the impression then that that would be in my best interest plus wax"however to me its clear that you have such determination and outstanding will, that you will have dreads in your future,in the meantime, just keep focused and don't panic, you're doing great and you've learned alot more recently than others who keep trying to grow dreads and end up removing them for various reasons.

well had to cut them off... I didn't want to I just thought if I have to go to any special occasion where I couldn't wear a hat it would be a big problem. im pretty damn pissed off about it when I cut them I noticed that it didn't go all the way through the dread so... but it was pretty much gold. well I'll pop in every now and then but see you guys in about a year lol. I plan on growing them back it takes a while for my hair to grow any length.

thats horrible man, I'm sorry =(I know how that must feel

Whaddup everybody!?

so did you start dreading by backcombing like KJ says with all the wax? or crochet with all the wax?either way pics would help,first as you'll probably hear, you don't wanna crochet extensively as that will just lead to over doing it and weakening your dreads, I've done it a little bit for some and It does help them look tighter or blunting but If you started them like that they don't really feel right, kinda like hair just rubbing on each other if you leave them be now it will dread on its own, actually as you probably know just leaving them alone leads to them knotting up the best and there's no real substitute for time,other than that man least you stopped waxing, if you feel like trying there's threads for getting it out all around,how long you been dreading though man?oh and be4 I forget, Welcome!
