    This Happened To Me Too...:(.

    But As Best I Have Read, The Finer Your Hair, The Greater The Shrinkage.

    My Hair Is Very Fine, And I Started To Get Comments About It's Obvious

    Locking One Month After I Started, The Tradeoff However Was, Hair That

    Was Down To Nipple Level, Ten Months Later It Is Just Below My

    Shoulders..:(.

    The God Of Dreads, Giveth With One Hand, And Taketh Away With The

    Other....:D



    Cheers Glen.

    Glen speaks the truth... my hair is rather coarse and I reckon I experienced minimal shrinking.. if not none.

    wow. this is the first glen has ever replied to me talking about shrinkage with hair shrinkage and not other kinds of male shrinkage.

    i'm so proud of you glen! :D

    and yeah, my hair is really fine... and curly so it shrunk up even when not in dreads. probably added to the shrinkage problem :( oh wells.

    In that case perhaps I'll be lucky then as my hair is really thick, hope so

    GLEN Is In The Process Of Cleaning Up His Act...:Angel_anim:

    And This Was Just The First Small Step In That Direction.

    Nice Of You To Notice A.G....:D.



    Cheers Glen.


    P.S:-- Take Note, I Refered To You As A.G, Instead Of Using The "Su***"

    Shrinking! my hair was by my shoulders before i started dreading

    But for the last year they've pretty much been just below my ears.. but luckily you can't tell they're that short because of the whispy ends! They've only got shorter!

    You definitely get treated different(mostly by cops, rednecks and old people). Almost like having a asshole detector on your head-HA! I also had dreams(while I still had dreads) that I would get a hair cut or they would fall out-something along those lines. And now that I dont have dreads I have dreams where I have them again(so I am growing them again!).

    I truly felt like it changed me as a person. I know it sounds stoopid to a lot of people, but I felt closer to the earth(the whole ROOTS thing).

    Dread, Baby, Dread

    i was surprised by how many people assume you do drugs and ask you for them

    was also surprised by how much better people have treated me (apart from continually being asked for drugs)

    birds do seem to think they are food

    Yeah I've had two cases at work were I've been asked by customers if I can get them drugs, and then two blocks buying some empty plastics pots saying "so what do you reckon you'd grow in these? ;)". I enjoy it when it happens though, because I like proving their assumptions wrong.
