i've wanted to dread my hair for quite some time. but every time i say that out loud, someone always says "nooooo! your hair's so pretty like it is" or something similar. so i thought i should ask the opinions of some people who already have em. i know it's my decision and in the end i think i will at some point soon (have to get somebody to help me, i have A LOT of hair), but i'm curious what you beautiful people think. i can't get the photos to load from my gallery page, i'm sorry! take a look there if you have a second, i would really appreciate it!! *love and light*
everyone said the same thing to me when i was considering it. but after i did it i felt much better and most of the people who said it was a bad idea acually said i either pull them off very well or i look better with them or stuff like that. and in the end it really is about you and not listening to the opinions of other people. just do what you want.
In the end you will probably get them i was so timid about it for awhile and now couldnt be happier .. do it and you will feel the same way
you would look amazing with dreads!^^ one thing i've noticed is that with guys, there are some that just don't need to get dreads..lol..just doesn't look right. but i've never seen a girl with dreads that didn't look absolutely gorgeous^^. just my opinion tho^^
yar it's kinda normal that males don't find other males "absolutely gorgeous" heheh. to the OP though, go for it if YOU want it...to get over the normal excitement what you get when you come up with something and love the idea which could only last a few days just give it some time and think it through...it's still just hair, but at the same time it's so much more and a chance to be unique and radiate everything positive
screw what people think. in the end, it's what makes YOU happy. i love mine and wouldn't change a thing.
you should at least try it out, but most people find they are sucked in for life. everyone looks absolutely gorgeous with dreadlocks, as its what our hair does naturally. dreadheads are generally a different bread of human, you have to care a little less about being perfectly neat, cause there is no way it will happen. locks are a mess and i love it. They remind me of a tree always growing and changing slowly. if you enjoy living a natural lifestyle, this defiantly added to it for me. if you want to start by back combing, get friends to do it, and try and make it fun- like a party. you could even just stop brushing your hair, and slowly they would form, completely naturally, how your head wanted it to be. good luck on your decision, and remember to listen to your heart... everyone that is worth loving around you will continue to love you no matter what you look like, or choices you make.
Do you think your hair is pretty? Why do you want dreads? I say try it if you want to... it's only hair.
