See, it's all about hygiene. You either got it, or you absolutely DO NOT.


There is not middle ground with dreads. :nono:


The school kids will all be like..........WTF? :roflol: :roflol:

My thread, my thread, what happened to my beautiful thread...

OK, so here are some pix.

The thing that everybody doesn't understand, is it takes about a month for dreadlocks to form and lock in. Right now they are very nappy and nasty, so I don't feel like showing those pix.

It's brave enough to post photos from a beauty salon so we will let you off the hook. :five:

Well, I figured if I want them done right, I've got to pay somebody that has professional experience. They can't be undone.

:lol8:

AWESOME

:mrgreen:

Actually, that was a concern of mine... I do want to look somewhat presentable for my job, but hell, I'm a computer tech. :roflol: I'm not expected to get any wimmins.

They WILL get better though. In about a month I'll feel comfortable NOT covering them up with a bandana.

update; 2 weeks later.

The rubber bands are still in, they'll be breaking any day now. 2 have come out. Every section has locked up now, more or less.

I have been palm rolling, twisting, and waxing every day. I expect another 2 weeks, and they'll have more of the mature look, with no bands left in.

I can pretty much tie them back too. I'll cut the loose thin hairs off the ends of the dreads to blunt them up a bit.

update

I got rid of all the elastic bands about a month ago. I've been able to wash it like normal hair for about 2 months; twice a week.

but yes, I shower every day. :mrgreen:

Not big on dreads :haha: I'm going to attempt and grow hair, I've been shaving my head for the past 20+ years :haha: I'll probably get annoyed with it eventually and shave it off :haha: I do that with beards too, trying that one as well :lol8:

There should be some in the moto section, Alison.
JP, you growing hair will be as successful as Somalians growing crops! I know your type, I will one day be yer type. Honestly, the more hair I got the more baldly my bald spot looks. I am going to keep it short starting any day now. At least my beard is growing strong, heh.

It's not that, I shaved my head a long time ago with the death of a friend. He was a Marine just out of high school and died in a motorcycle accident in Japan. Through my high school days, playing football, I didn't even shave my head. The day we got word he died, a few of us got together and shaved our heads. It's been shaved since then, when I'm not lazy, I finish it off in the shower with the Mach III. My head, on many occasions is as clean shaven as one can imagine. I have drew blood on a plethora of occasions doing it :lol8:

Well I'd like to see you grow yer hair :haha: I guess I can only pray that through all those years you developed a bald spot that you're not aware of, heh. Nah, I'm just joking. As a Christian I cannot make fun of you no matter the quality of your hair. Good luck, mate!

That very well maybe true :haha: If it's real bad, I'll just shave it again :lol8:
