When I first got my dreads I was working with food and had to tie my hair back for about 12 hours a day, and turned out with no bad results. Just make sure it's tied loosely like you said you were doing, and you should be fine. It does make your dreads eat each other a little faster though, so separate them often
http://www.dreadlockssite.com/page/dread-shops thats a great place to get hand made tamsid rather have a hand made one of a kind tam then a mass produced one anyday
...litteraly lettin my hair down, the one time I can relax around other like minded people. Learning not to care what ppl think is going to be a huge struggle for me but I look forward to it for the most part. I also hope to invest in a tam soon. Thanks again brother, Peace be with youtying em tight especialy with rubber bands or anything can cause weak points keeping em back or in hats all the time can slow things id really recomend u leave em loose 50% or when u can wear in a tam when u need to mix it up more
for ignorance?
I love this thread. Too tired to go on about it now but this site may give some insite, esp. related to SE's talk of earth ships. Dig it, I'll be reading way more into this soon I hope, it's been on the agenda for a long time. I just worry about theory V. reality when it comes to self sufficient communities, ppl are inevitably flawed and will always fight and greed will never be a thing of the past. Please feel free to argue this point b/c I would love to be wrong about this. Meh, another day and a fesh mind perhaps. http://www.intentionalcommunity.org/

We have trailer parks here, but there is only one piece of property I have EVER seen with a trailer on it that people actually live in and that trailer has been there at least 30 years. Everything else is an actual house or one of those modular homes that come in two pieces that looks like a house - and most of them have garages on them. I don't know how they get away with it unless they were "grandfathered" in somehow before the regulations. But for miles around here there are no trailers on anybody's property. Wierd huh???? soaringeagle said:its all in the wording
for instance if you apply for a loan or mortgage calling an earthship an earthship your denied however if you call it rammed earth construction your approved
i really cant see how they have any right telling u u cant put a trailer on your oewn property a trailers not a permenant structure so i dont think they legaly can put regulations on that
yea maybe they can try pushing u around but should be able to fight it and win
