I worked in a horrible place for 2 months just to pay my dreads.
Shipped them from England to México.
A friend of mine who works on a salon took the job to put them on.
5 and a half hours later.. I had blue dreads.

They’re heavy.
They cause you headaches.
You can’t sleep for the first 3 days
They’re dificult to wash
They’re dificult to explain.
In hot weather they’re unbearable

...And they rock.

Totally worth it.
