1 month old dreads on my daughter

After a year of debating, I dreaded my 10 year old daughter's hair last month. They're coming along alot faster than I originally thought, considering her hair is so fine. So now we're a happy dready family.

Thats just awsome... I love seeing pictures like that...

Can we get a "classic" family photo of you guys?

 

Can't really see our dreads that well, but it's the only family pic I have with all of us dreaded.

 

you have such a happy family!!!! your daughter's dreads look so good on her!

 

meh thats good enough... Great pic and gread smiles..

 

Thanks guys. As soon as I knotted them up, her energy changed. She now looks like the wild child that she is.

 

i love the family pic i hope my family in the future ends up all dreaded =]

 

what a beautiful family you have my dear!!!

 

You guys look like great parents. Great hair too

 

You all are so gorgeous. Thanks for letting your daughter express herself, she will become a beautiful, intelligent mama for it.

 

Thanks for all the positive vibes. It's been rough, explaining it to the grandparents, teachers, etc. So far, her peers are intrigued by them. She loves them and that's all that really matters.

When I was 10 i had no idea what dreads were...

 

It helps when your parents and most of their friends are locked.

 

What do you mean you have to explain to there teachers? or they're teachers just concerned about your childs health?

 

I explain it to them so they don't think that we are neglecting her and report us to social services. Once I explain the process and reasons, the ignorance is erased. My biggest concern is to let them know that she bathes and washes her hair regularly, so there are no health issues. Alot of people don't have a clue about dreads, so I'm just educating them a bit.

 

Oh, your daughter is a doll mtnhighmama and I love the family pictures!
