3 and a half year-old dreads

i havent had any recent pictures on here lately, so here are some that were taken over thanksgiving break.

 

u remind me of my frend,but his not got dreadies!
ure dreads are very beautiful u shud b very proud,do u have any fav ones

 

Dude you've grown a HUMUNGUS face hampster!! it rocks!! you look so cuddily

 

proud? eh..... i dont mean to throw a complement back in someone´s face, but that´s quite the opposite of how i feel. the whole reason my dreads look the way they do is because i stopped doing anything to them a LONG time ago. i just let it all go. whatever happens happens. so really, it´s just nature doing what it does.
no need to attribute them to anyone, they just are. even if i had been proud at some point, the constant comments from people in my day-to-day life (not from the internet, though. i bring this on myself by putting these pics up - besides, you guys rock) would either make me a huge egoist or make me realize the true nature of things.

as far as my favorite......um, *points at one of the pictures*.....that one.



and "face hampster?" haha, i´ve never heard that before, but i like it. i had trimmed my beard since those pictures, so it´s not quite as bushy, but it´s still got some substance to it

 

yeah man, nice work... i want mine to look like them.

 

trimmed? .... is it more of a face gerbil then? Or are we talking a fuzzy catapillar?

 

heheeh fuzzy caterpilla!
if i ahd ure dreadies i would b proud,thewy look amazing!
and its gr8 that ure not liek ohhhhh look at me i got dreadies,im so cooL!that is awesome!

 

Freggin Awsome Bro! what method? I have also had my dreads about 3 years... altho my first sign of a dread was 1 year 1 month ago..... my hair got to about my sholders before it started to dread... i wash with dr. bronners castile soap and use no conditioner.

 

and it look beautiful

 

nice knots.

 

they were backcombed at first, but then i just let them grow out and combine as they saw fit. i used dr. bronner´s, too. great fucking stuff!

 

i remember you from the old forums man
your dreads were like half that long! haha crazy. they look rad.

 

Ohhhhhhh Amazing Time really dose the trick

 

awsome man thx for the reply... how did your back end up splittin into 2 huge ones? Or was it ALL natural formation? My back looks like a huge flat knotted lock of a bunch of lil locks.... kinda looks like a pancake sometimes.

 

my friends
dread looks like a dead rat

 

rofl a dead rat!? get a pic plz...
here are some of my weird ones.

thats a huge ball of hair dreaded up in the back... about the size of my arm once it grows out... if it ever does.

this one looks like a turd...

these are all connected at the root.... like a claws of some sort...


MelvnDoo post some of your dreads up close i would like to see how they formed... its very artistic and interesting to me.

 

I hve to agree with nest, i beleave u ahve some of the most amazing growth of lock's. low long were they when u back combed your hair?

 

it´s a long story why, but for literally 5 months straight i slept on my back all night every night. so i guess that´s just how the back of my head turned out from the dreads always being pushed to the sides as i slept. i didnt even notice it until it was too late. oh well...

here´s an old picture of the back of my head:
