    ...Unless I can find a way to get my dread more even looking. It's not noticeable unless you're really close, but it still bothers me how one side has more than the other, also, I went to a salon to get them done (yeah, I know...) and she didn't really backcomb them enough, so on the side with less dreads, there's kind of a shaved patch on top where hair is growing back from being cut off. Ugh.

    Just needed to vent. x_x

    EDIT: Hey, my pic is there now! I just took it a few minutes ago...Wow, I look so stoned. xD

    if you are that selfconscious about your hair then perhaps dreads arent for you, personally i think your hair looks right but if you wanna be a weirdo about it then SHAVE IT

    yeah dude seriously. you seem way too sporadic about your feelings towards yr dreads. like when you posted "my ugly dreads", then later you said something about how you love them, but they were the same pictures?? i dunno. kinda confuses me.

    I think you should lighten/bleach/highlight ur hair, i think lighter dreads would look good on you.

    look kid, your locks look way better than mine, and i am not to about to be compulsive and cut them off. locking is about patience. one side of my part is more voluminous than the other. if you want perfect rope locks you need to maintain them by twisting or soemthing. what's your heritage? hair type?

    Just comb them out and redo if you don't like the current ones. No need to shave your head. personally i think you should have some smaller, some bigger dreads, would look good imo.

    yeah well, everyone has days when they love their dreads and days when they absolutely hate them. at least you live in a country where dreads are accepted, unlike me.
    You won't see me cut them anytime soon tho.
    cos i have strong character, and so should you.

    you fuss over them way way way too much you also worry too much about what othersthink
    you chopped one off trying to eliminate the fuzz between dreads when u shoulda left em alone
    and

    youy went to a freak9ing salo0n to get dreads to begin with
    youve piled mistake upon mistake upon mistake because u refuse to accept them as ythey are and let them dread as they want to dread

    \why do you do that? when u get dreads u will have 90% possitive responce 10% negative and that negative if you pay attention to it exclusively will drive u to wax to0 crohetet papm roll andtrim evry loose hair ..they willllllake u fuck up your dreads with theyre negativity..stop paying attention and stop fussing with them

    yoavcth uenoughy they still foirgave ya and still look good now its youir turn to forgive and begin to accept and love them as they are
    dont mess with them any more and let them do what they do best

    or..you can give up..lose em maybe start over, hopefully with a better understanding and hopefuly without the salons and screww ups..
    or u can give up on dreads all together cause your too weak to take 10% not likeing them even though 90% do..
    edo u care that much what the conformist cliques think?
