How did people react when you told them that you were going dready?
Life Issues Facing Dreads
I've been telling just about everyone about my plan to dread. My girlfriend, my parents, my boss, my friends. I found their reactions pretty entertaining, in so many different ways. My girlfriend is very supportive, she thinks I'll look awesome with dreads and she's excited to be a part of the process (she's going to help with the twist and rip). My mom pretty much said ok, cool, do what you want. My dad called me a dirty hippie (joking of course, he likes to pick on me). My boss probably had my favorite reaction when I asked him whether it would be an issue in the workplace (I work a a pizza place). For a minute he looked at me really weirdly, then he said "I have never been asked that question before". Not that he thought it was gross, apparantly he just found it very odd (He said it was fine in case anyone was wondering). My friends have had different reactions, from "Awesome, totally go for it!" to "It just wouldn't suit you" and the worst of all "I just think dreads are gross, I read somewhere that a guy cut off his dreadlocks and there were bugs/maggots in them".So I was just wondering, how did people around you react when you first started talking about growing dreadlocks?ps- sorry if i didn't put this in the right category...
