Dreads started before rastafari in the 30s. The scottish had dreads before many modern cultures. but dreads go way back before that. Adam and Chava (eve) probably had dreads since it is the natural way a man of colors hair goes. and yes we do know that civilization started in africa somewhere. all came from the same black ancestor.
If I want to go back to nature and live as God intended me to, Dreads,natural foods, and clothing along with a belief that ALL MAN ARE FAMILY will be ok with me. WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT CLOTHES, FOOD, BELIEF, AND HAIR I SHOULD HAVE?
I guess some of my big brothers and sisters still want to control my movements even if I am willing and able to do it myself. I AND I live as one!

i have been thinking about my locs alot lately, which is what brought me here.
i get all sorts of questions, here are a few to add to the list:
how do you comb your hair?
do they wash out?
are they heavy?
do you ever wish you could take them out?
will you have to shave your head when you don’t want them anymore?
do they hurt?
how do you do your hair?

i am a human, a woman, just here, i have hair, my hair is with me, its a part of me, and like all things it will one day fall into the ground

I have been into reggae for a long time, every thing about it attracts me and i love everything it stands for. I would love to have dreads as part of the religion…but im a white gurl with thick hair that hangs past my ass, how can i get my hair to dread up. ive seen afew white boys with dreads.. but it looks like peices of shit on there head… they said they did it with wax, but i wont mine to look nice and be done naturally. Ive asked around, but this site came to me and i would like to know if you have the answer to my question. Let the good times roll, and please get back to me.

I have natural hair that I mainly keep in a fro. Sometimes I’ll braid it, or twist it. I use to feel bad when people would compliment me on the braids and twists. My fro however was and still is looked at like something odd. White people, yeah you would kinda expect a certain reaction cause most of them don’t know about natural black hair, but not black folks! I’m living in Germany and it is a learning experice for those I encounter. Maybe it will be different when I go back to the states. Why can’t the natural folks just live without all of the nonsense?

PEACE
