    lol.... me again. well my hairs about 4 inches long on top, and probably a bit more and less in some places. idk. but like 2 days ago my moms like your gettin a hair cut tomorrow, then she said it again today...

    and if you remember how ive described my mom to you, she doesnt make any sence in her reasoning.

    FOR EXAMPLE: today when she said it i was like... Nope. and shes like yep your going to the same guy. and i was like no i dont like him, then she says and i quote "If you didnt go to him then your hair wouldnt look this good now"

    BASICALLY SAYING MY HAIR LOOKS GOOD,

    of course i notice this shit, since im trying to show her shes wrong im like... well if it looks so good why do i need to get it cut?
    -really its easy to "beat" her in an arguement, but of course in the end it comes to "well you have to listen to me"



    and when she said it about 2 days ago she said some BS like my hair lost its form???


    either way, what am I to do!?!?!?! like serously. My mom will bitch alot and probably say im grounded and try to take away all my privledges, or shell just tell my dad to make me do it and hell be like. YOUR GETTING YOUR HAIR CUT DAMNIT NOW COME ON. and i dont wanna deal with him pissed.

    besides that i basically lost my mini dread... idk what happened it kinda just got combed out. i think its probably because the rest of my hair isnt dreaded so idk. doesnt work out. but I started another yesterday and its doing pretty good, and its much thicker.

    :confused::confused::confused:

    this is also the longest my hairs ever been, in the front its like at the bottom of my eye if i pull it down, and the back and sides curl up after i wash it.
    I think it looks really good

    except today, i took a shower last night at like 11:30pm and went to bed with wet hair.... well as ive found out that never ends well... so, I thought my hair looked pretty bad today. (idk why im even telling you this, i just find it interesting)
    I fell asleep with a "beanie" type hat on. it didnt help tho i think it fell off...

    As long as she keeps saying "You're getting a haircut tomorrow " each and everyday, you've got nothing to worry about friend. :D

    put a wooly hat on, followed by a motorcycle helmet, then use a padlock to lock the strap....voila!


    the wooly hat will be good for knottyness on your head, and the helmet shall repel any form of scissorial attack....

    I am unsure if this is an international thing but in Aus we have a shave your head for cancer day... I believe it has a proper name though. Basically people shave their heads for money and the money they raise goes to a cancer foundation.

    Tell your mother. "Hey mum, I want to grow my hair for 2-3 years and then shave it all off for a cancer foundation. The more hair I have the more money I raise" If she says no you could give her a guilt trip.

    In 2-3 years your mother may have forgotten what you have said. If so you're free to play with your dreads forever! If not you will have to shave your head and make some mega money for a foundation. Either way everyone wins.

    Hope that made sense

    I had a similar problem with my mom when i was your age, nothing to do with dreads i was just sick of their constant blade 3 that i wanted to just grow my hair long. she said everytime no and i was to go get my hair cut. But then she would give me money and send me to get it cut and stupidly i went. Eventually i realised, it's my damm hair and my personal apperance and in the end its me that lives with it every day. so i sat her down and talked to her about why i wanted long hair and if i didnt take care of it i would get rid of it. and since then for the most part my hair has been long and various colours, just because. also finding a picture of my dad at my age with long hair also helped. Seriously though just talk to your mom, explain (if there is one) the spiritual or any other reason, for me its testing my impatience something i hate about myself so dreads are my way of saying im not gonna be impatient anymore and not be so serious all the time but most importantly to be more self confident about my apperance, this time last year i was scared to death to do this and now im proud to show off my messy dreads

    I hope this helps

    LOL, yeah, just say you're going to Shave for the Brave in a few years!

    If your mom says no, kindly ask why she hates people with cancer.

    thats a good plan, the only drawback is the bad karma form promising to raise money for cancer but not...

    i wholeheartedly second that! it jus takes time but parents will usually jus get sick of trying. my mom is even a hair dresser and i persuaded her to let me grow out my hair. shes only cut my hair 3 times in the past 5 years. she jus gave up and realized that its my hair and my choices. they jus hope its a bad choice and you'll learn :p

    yep, thats what she tried to do today. she fuckin called me and was like GO DRIVE UP AND GET YOUR HAIR CUT. didnt even give me money. and luckly i have like 0 gallons of gas and my gas lights on so i was like.. welllll i cant go i dont have gas. then she flipped out on me and said i dont have to tell her and i need to tell my dad that. i was like GOD CALM DOWN I JUST TOLD YOU WHY I CANT, I DIDNT SAY GIVE ME MONEY FOR GAS. (then right after she called my dads cell to bitch at him to get my hair cut, but he had just went in the bathroom and missed it. i didnt feel inclined to tell him about it.)
    I know its my damn hair but she thinks its her personal appearance is what it is.

    fuckin a. you have no idea. we have pics of my dad from when my parents like first started going out and my dads fuckin hair is to his shoulders, another pic we have him with a afro.

    i would explain why, but she wouldnt care, the whole "why do you want them" has never came up, its just you arent getting them. Right now this is me trying to keep my hair long, not even for dreads right now. its a step towards dreads. how am i sposto get dreads if i dont have long hair? so yeah...

    fuck. i never really thought of the reason why, mainly cause i like how they look, but it would be really great for me (i think) because im really shy and have a low self esteem. lol. rude, or polite comments would help me with that, and im sure people would wanna talk about them because around here i have NEVER seen anyone with dreads.

    wow... i just read that you did it for self confidence too.. i kinda responded part by part. so. thats cool. maby itll work for me too. anyway, i plan on gettin dreads within a year anyway, im probably going to college in indiana or PA, so.my mom wont have much controll over me then...

    haha yeah. except she would flip if i actually said "fuck off"
    serously. but as i said before on the phone i told her im not doin it, and then she called my dad so he will tell me to. my dads probably more understanding but she knows im more likley to listen to him. idfk. ATLEAST if she tells me to, i can bide my time till next week cause im just gonna say that i dont wanna look like an idiot at my friends b day party that is this weekend.

    hopefully that works but shit. yeah. i got that. im gonna try just being like "no" last time she like surprise drove me to the barBER. and your right i did just be like... "ahh damnit. ok." fuck that, im going to see what happens when i dont do it. which isnt really something id try to do, but i guess this is special.

    :( i basically always listen, not always in a timley fashion, but do what she tells me to. (oh new stuff for jason.) defiance
