Friends Finally Noticing

General Talk

Funny thing about mine is that I started with a dread perm so everyone noticed right away n said they look pretty good. Now 4 months later after just washing and seperating they are getting messy and dreading like they should and now everyone thinks they look bad. Crazy what peoples perception of dreads are

9 month update and info needed :)

Introduce Yourself

I really think this thread should stick around. I'm pretty sure almost all new dreadheads have this fear. Subconsciously I'm always squeezing my roots together and it gives me anxiety that it is not as thick as the actual dread. Common sense says it won't be, but, when you start to fall in love with your hair lol, you worry about lots of silly stuff.

zigzagging ::-(

Dreading Methods

Your dreads were really cute on you. Definitely get them back

I want dreads but I dont

General Talk

Honestly it's always gonna be tougher for a young person to dread if they don't have an inner circle who is also into the same culture. At your age your brain is hard wired to want to fit into a group. I'm not saying this to be negative, just if you do decide to do it, it would definitely help if you had someone close to you do it too. I'm almost 35, and like SE said it takes many of us a long time to actually do it. I've always wanted them too, and if you feel the same you will get them when you are ready

Introduce Yourself

Same here. I got dreads because I've basically had every other hairstyle and wanted to "try" dreads. 3 months in now and I can't picture taking them out. Maybe that will change but I'm already thinking out being an old man with long gray dreads lol. I'm pretty sure lots of people start them off just to try a different style and end up keeping them forever. Dreads have a sneaky way of changing who you are!

Getting really frustrated with dreading (Dandruff)

Dread Maintenance

Keep us updated on the listorine. I have the same problem. It really sucks when you can't really enjoy your dreads because of nasty dandruff

There's a reason...

Dread Maintenance

I used to have spikes all over my head and I used wax then. I also would curl my mustache with wax lol. I've basically have tried every style. Hopefully dreads will be the last frontier!

the only thing I miss....

General Talk

Me too. I loved the Irish caps. I prob had about 12 different ones that I rotated. Def miss those

Nice dreads. Some freaking huge ones in the back lol.

Can bad sectioning correct itself?

General Questions

I'm starting to have similar too. Should dreads that wanna "y" shape just be left alone or is that not a stable dread?
