i just recently started making them for me. it's going to be a lot of trouble, but i'm sure it is worth it. does any tronicomian have dreads? if so, which methods did you find most effective? do you still have them? do people judge others if they have dreads? (you dirty, dirty potsmoking hippie!) and i really don't like reggae, i just want my hair to be not-so-troubling :) |

Pretend it's part of your religion. It does actually say in the bible that the only time you should cut your hair is when you're in mourning :) I've never had dreads, I think they look a bit gash unless they are at least shoulder length... |

How long is your hair? I don't know any girls who have dreads, they wouldnt be prepared to shave their entire heads if they didnt want it! |

um..I contemplated having them in the early 90's...but thought better of it..not to offend anyone but the first thing you notice about the dreads (the hair not the people) is the smell..it's an unavoidable by product..and definetly shapes the opinions of those around you in a not entirely positive manner |

Only know 2 girls who had dreads. It looked okay on both of them. Flea: V. true, I imagine it's also a pain not being able to go swimming/do watersports. |

oh, i totally forgot everything can be explained by religion nowadays. i have long hair so my dreads will be longer :) |

! hrm. you do have to wash dreads about once a week so they will not be smelling bad. |
||||||||
|

Heh, yeah... I know of a few stories of offensive smelling dreads :-s |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i know a few horror stories myself too. but dreads only start to smell if they get mold,and if they get mold they are not properly treated. |

eewwwwww... :-s |

You can't wash dreads- they come undone. You get this special talc-like powder you need to rub into them to clean them... |
||||||||

i've seen it! the insides of one guys dreads were filled with whiteygreeney mold.. man that was nasty. no wonder they smelled. |

Ah man, that's the main thing that put me off was thinkining you couldn't get them wet. Thanks for correcting that mis-information :) What's that talc like stuff for if you can just wash them normally? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
just look in the mirror and picture your self with cropped hair in case it all doesnt go too well...do you like what you see?..that's the answer basically... |

"Neglect This is the real do it yourself no maintenance method. All you do is nothing. Maybe wash and wax your hair, just let your hair do what it's going to do and one day you should have dreads." haha! i bet that's how it's MEANT to be done! |
