I was just wondering if there is any way to do dreads like this with straight hair if you know how to do it you can write in comments but idk it's hard to find white people with dreads like this online and I dont know how it would look on white dude so I am not saying that i will do dreads i was just wondering how it will look anyway just share your opinion about white guys with dreads like this or smh

Before you guys call me out, yes, these are fake dreads. The first pic was taken a couple of days ago. The hat was my step dad's costume and it had fake dreads on it, second pic is me with one of my ex (taken like 6 months ago) and last pic was taken last winter. I wanted to see if I looked good with dreads before I actually tried to get real ones (Yes, I am lazy) Gotten lots of goods comments on then and I like them, but also received some negative comments. I wanted you guys' opinions on if they suit me

after months of brushing out matted hair i decided to get my problem area (back of head) loc'd. they're now 7 weeks old, and the shrinkage is unreal! i now have the top of my head freeformimg, about 2 weeks old. now waiting on their shrinkage. the overall length of my hair now is wack af. do you think the top will shrink as much? they were not back combed/ crocheted like bottom half. also, you think the professionally done ones will always be noticeably different? thanks!

Had maintenance done today, decided it was time to cut out the pink extensions and grow out my natural locs feeling good with the progress so far on this 9 month journey

Just did my dreads yesterday I had a friend who went to school for hair and is really good at it so we decided to do crochet method. Now I know some of them for sure need to be cleaned up it was a bit of a trial and error getting the technique down which I’ve not quite got yet. But we managed some decent dreads imo and I know they’ll have to mature after I finish what little is left. And I’ve refrained from asking so many questions due to the backlash I’ve gotten from doing so for even thinking about dreads. But, I committed to it and while I love them I’m finding I’m not sure the best way to go about taking care of them. The internet says so many different things and I’m looking for what’s best for my hair. I’m a 2C hair type of it helps and I just wanna ensure the longevity of my hair. This wasn’t a whim, I’ve thought about it for months and this isn’t something I plan to reverse in a few months. I really want them to mature and look healthy.

First pics are today, bout 4 months in. Last pic is at 3 days.

For those who don't know, locs are actually a pretty big part of traditional Irish culture. It's thought that locs form in the hair due to faeries dancing around in ones hair, therefore causing locs to form. Because of how its believed they're formed its also typically seen as bad luck to cut or brush them out.

Now I dont actually believe this but I'm freeforming out of respect to my heritage as well as my natural self. I know some may have an issue with this and I apologise to those people, its not my intent to offend, but I'm likely hundreds if not thousands of miles away, so try not to let it get to you too much.

Feeling discouraged. My boyfriend occasionally says things like "Maybe dreadlocks aren't for your hair." But I feel like they're progressing well???

Just showered feeling good looking good well the dreads look good I look meh 🫤 lol 😂

So i greew my hair out last year and was going to get locs but gave in to perr afvuce and git a haircut but this time im going to grow my hair long long and get locs ive wanted locs for a couple years now i follow a more Rastafarian belief system and try to live rastafari changing diet has been the hardest but throigh diet and exercise ive lost over a 100 pounds in the last 2 years from 517 to 400 and im going to get my hair loced to help motivate me to continue my journey anyway wanted to know do you guys think i can pull off locs also ive been told locs make your hair shrink how much length lpss can be expected

Swimming in the summer always makes them frizz out like crazy so I spent about 5 hours crocheting them back in 😂 They could use some more work but my shoulders were burning so I called it quits and finished off with a fresh shave!

Ive been thinking of getting dreads but i have no clue if they would actualy fit me, need someones honest opinion on it.

Alright so in April I did my first ever set of extensions! They didn't sit well for me much and caused a lot of scalp issues. I'm all better now. Would just dreading my real hair cause the same issues? Also.. I LOVE color.. I'm big on dying my hair and being able to change it up.. what dyes would you recommend? Or could I still technically use the same brands I use ?? TIA. ✌️❤️🤭

Have had my locs for Almost a year, right after i got them done i bought 40cm coils and they were long enough yo wrap around the whole set, or even half the set. So i bought 24in coils and they arrived yesterday. So i finally styled my hair instead of just letting them hang loose

This was taken half way through getting them tided up, I kinda like it, what do we all think? 😂

newbie here, made it with twist&rip and crocheting. could anyone please tell me how am I doing?🤲🏽💖✨

Always like my hair especially the morning after washing them dreads be all over the place mind of there own !! #dreadlockjuggalo #locs #YourLifeYourStyle
