dreads 1 month ago

I’ve been wanting dreads for awhile now and was originally going to go with the backcombing method but all my friends who said they would help kind of backed off the idea and i cant force people to help me because that would be kind of bad right? so I’ve been going the neglect method for a few months now but I’m afraid of how the dreads will look i don’t want them to be terribly different in size and what not so I’ve been thinking back on the backcombing method….maybe i can get someone to help me section it and then ill do the hard part. oh well we’ll see!

Maybe sooner than i think. 2 months ago

I finally managed to grow out my hair (over my shoulders) and then one crazy night i “decided” (for whatever UNKNOWN reason) to chop it all off (now it’s a little longer than my earlobes) and i shaved it all off underneath… Still not TOO sure why i did this… but it is STILL long enough for dreads…. And since there is not much i can do with it right now.. I might just go ahead and get the dreads :o)



Still deciding... 4 months ago

I could always stick with my messy plaits and coloured braids…



Got em 4 months ago

kept them for a week. My girlfriend didnt like them but it was awesome while it lasted.



Bringing back the dreads! 5 months ago

Don’t know when though. Not soon :(. I decided to first dye my hair rainbow and blue and turquoise are also still on the list. After that I want my dreads back. It’s been almost a year since I had them already and to be honest I start to miss them more and more. I’m guessing winter also isn’t the best season to get dreads, so maybe next spring?

Hair made for self expression. 7 months ago

Dreads are so sexy. I think they look absolutely awesome (if they are done right and cared for in the correct manner). I really must have dreads SOON. A few people say they will do the dreads for me, but i don trust their “expertise” :op
I must get them done and the only way i would probably be satisfied is if they are done proffesionally – but dreadlocks in this country are very EXPENSIVE… must get a job a.s.a.p and work my ass off to pay for them :oD

It randomly occurred to me the other day that getting dreads would be frickin sweet ass, but I can’t do it right now because I have crazy layers in my hair that would probably stick out at weird angles.

I’m for sure doing it after they grow out, though.



OMFG_itsvictoria is kickin it

Untitled 12 months ago

i’m just waiting for my hair to grow right now.
it’s like down to the point where i can reach around and twirl it a tiny bit.
i won’t do it until this summer. because its really going to suck looking homeless for 3 months. but it’ll totally be worth it
lol
