bzzzzz.
Whelp... I cut off my hair. Its gone and buzzed except for the fringe. I just wasn't happy with the way the dreads were ... i don't want to say progressing because that's not what I mean... Mostly I was just REALLY uncomfortable and highly oversensitive to the way my hair made my scalp feel.
Its been a hot summer and I have really thick hair. I just finally got tired of feeling all that hair on my head. And sadly it's only been 5 or 6 months of having them. Plus my hubby gives the most amazing head massages which were really creating a mess, which made my head itch a lot. I was pretty miserable.
But I'm sad. I've wanted dreadlocks for so long. And when I cut my hair it was in a fit ofspontaneity andmanic energy. I was just so overstimulated. Anyway, I'd like to give it another try. I don't feel prepared to say I'll never have dreads because I feel pretty determined to have them and the freedom that comes from having them.
I'm very glad I at least tried and I learned some amazing and shocking things about myself, and my lifestyle, in the process. I'm uber jealous of all the dreadies out there but hopefully I'll be able to re-begin another dread journey.

@Torie. I thought about it. But I had no desire for hair at all. It feels really good super short. So I really didn't mind hacking it off. I don't get all that emotionally attached to my hair.
@SoaringEagle. Thanks. Yes, next time will be better.=)
You could've brushed it out! My good friend had dreads for 10 years, cut them to her shoulders then brushed it!
u start today by not owning a comb and letting them dread as they grow
im sorry to see them go but the next set will be here to stay
