RIP My dreads, 2007 - 2011 (timeline)

A sad day that had to come happened yesterday. My reason for cutting them is a few things, I've been debating cutting them for a while since my hair was thinning too much, they were starting to not look as nice. Also as we all know, they're pretty much anti-job devices, and I'm desperate, so I took an upcoming interview as the opportunity to do it. Needless to say it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do, I really didn't want to let them go. But I may grow them again in the future, who knows. RIP

Thanks for looking. It's a sad time for me

This is now the shaved head forum, fuck off you dirty hippies.

 

ahaha! doesn't it feel soooo good to rub your head though?

 

Another one down:willy_nilly:

So, did you get the job then, or have you not had the interview yet? Tbh. if my hair was thinning I'd prob. do the same thing. I'd be well gutted if that happened to me, fortunately... :afro:

 

Wtf dude! MORE INSPIRATION THREADS!!!!

Lol, looks good man! Those were some pretty awesome dreads, but i hear ya...."anti-job devices"

 

Fuck all you "I will just shave them off." I Have to comb!!!!!

 

Everyone's leaving!

 

The dreads made you look older. Not in a good way.

 

I have been creeping this forum for months (MONTHS! CREEP!!), and today marks the first time I've felt obliged to comment: Dude, I am so sorry for the loss of your locks. They were gorgeous.
