Dreadlocks

[Ziggzagg]

you might or might not have seen the pic of me and know what a crazy long haired hippy I am (worth noting is that the hair is about twice as long now).....but I'm debating on gettin dreads....opinions?

[[AK]Devil_Dog]

Ah, get a hair cut comes to mind....

[[AK]Beaker]

Be prepared for headlice

Dreads are bad about that

lol, well the haircut would come after the dreads if i didnt like em....last time I had hair this long was in hs, and i still have regrets about not tryin it out before cutting it....i just dunno....

[[AK]Bojan]

If you regretted not doing it last time, I say go for it. I personally dont find it appealing but hey its not my hair!

As August Knight's most well coifed member, I vote for haircut... hippie.

Sigh I thought I asked you to quit using confusing words, it ruins my forum fun.

And just think, you'll be providing a habitat for any number of small critters, kind of like a walking environmental preserve.

Havinng lived in the hippie & pot capitol of the United States (Arcata, California), I can honestly say that white folks with dreads is a pretty ghastly site. It's like a white kid driving a honda with all the NoS stickers, ground effects, neon lights, and cool japanese text on his windsheild. He may think he's cool... his friends think he's cool... but everyone else thinks he a dork.

Don't be a dork. If all your friends have goofy-ass hippie hair, do something different. Go for a high 'n tight.

given it some thought, and chances are I wont be getting dreads....the more I think about it, the less I want company up there. As for a high and tight, I did that for more then 6yrs when working as an EMT/Firefighter. The ultimate deciding factor was the old lady telling me I'd be banned to the couch for good if I did anything to change the way it is now.

Fight the man dude! Go for the bugs

Bob Marley was the only one who ever managed pulled that look off.

Also not a fan of dreads on the ladies.

Rob Zombie!

Gets all the chicks, makes decent movies, and uhh sings in a band.

Not only his is a white boywith dreads, hes a white boy with buck teeth and dreads!

[Ziggzagg]

Also added to that list is Jonathan Davis of Korn....he's overweight, with dreads and has no probs with the ladies!

I heard about a girl at my alma mater (University of Oregon) who, upon experiencing terrible itching, shaved her dreads off only to find maggots eating her scalp. Proceed with caution.
