    call me whatever, bumping sheet for curiosity purposes ^_^
    as to what I would do, smile followed by a nod. Sometimes if they have sexy and mature dreads, I just pause and stare like so: O.O, it usually ends up with a smile once eye contact is made :p

    I stop and talk to people all the time if they have dreads, especially if Ive been drinking. Usually they dont mind, sometimes they seem a little annoyed, but usually when I dont just ask dumbass questions like im sure they usually get they seem to lighten up. Ive had a couple be a little elitist and try to say my hair type wouldnt work....but then the same guy told me he only washes his hair once every six months:confused: He also said to get his dreads he just wore a hat and let all his hair mat up, and then had his freind cut it apart with scissors, kind of wierd. He did have nice locks though.

    I have walked past a dreadhead and said "Hey sweet dreads!" But there's been times where I've been on a train and sat near a dreadhead and just not bothered to acknowledge them. I guess it really depends how nice a persons locks are and how friendly they look.

    I kind of embarrased myself majorly though. There's this guy who owns this shop and he's so nice... Anyway I was completely in lust with his dreads. They were beautiful and I didn't know what to say apart from do you wash them? I just didn't think I was just too busy perving on his dreads. I need to pay him a visit actually. I wanna take some shots of his dreads.
    The guy on the train kept exchanging really evil glances with me but he seemed like he'd have ripped my face off if I said anything I did want to say hi though. They looked greasy and all his head was shaved apart from the dreads on top which isn't a look I particularly like.

    the only people in my city with dreads are black people.
    for the most part they give me dirty looks so i dont say nothing to them.
    but the few people who talk to me about them, i talk back for as long as the conversation lasts.
    i want to get a picture of this substitute teacher that has locks down to his butt.
    i only talked to him once and he just kinda smiled and turned around to show off his locks.
    and then theres another substitute that calls me Bob Marley, but he is jamaican so its funny and ive known him for like 5 years.

    A couple weeks ago, I went out for a girls night out with a good friend of mine and made the mistake of trying to keep up with her in terms of alcholic beverages....I was sooooo drunk and for some strange reason I started doing dinosaur mating calls outside of the bar at innocent passerbys. One guy had really nice dreads and I walked up to him and made like a pterodactyl sound and then followed it up with...nice dreads man. He looked me up and down and then looked over at my friend who was about to pee her pants from laughing so hard and then just said....What the fuck? I thought he was going to kick my ass! But uh....being the dumbass drunkard that I am....instead of walking away I kept going with it. Poor guy. The next group of fellas that walked by started doing it with me...it was awesome. So...that was the only time Ive ever commented to a stranger about his/her dreads...it didnt go over very well! =]

    I see folk with dreads everyday at my job and around my neighborhood. I don't treat them any different - 'cept I do sneak a peak and I know they peak at mine too. Otherwise, if I make eye contact, I smile just like I'd smile for anyone else.

    Even though I go to dread forums, I really dislike talking about my hair otherwise! Just online and to my hubby (even though I'm sure he's really not interested that my dreads look like they grew a centimeter or something).
