My dreads are about 2 and a half months old. They have yet to lock fully. I love waking up to my nappyness. I have come to realization that my hair is no longer a hairstyles it is a way of life. They just add to my journey. I am a lot happier with myself regardless of what others might think. It took me roughly 2 years to decide if dreads where my way to go. I can't see myself without them.
