Incredible long dreadlock sighting

I met a girl yesterday with beautiful long dreads. Some reaching down to her knees. Her hair was a virgin color of chestnut brown...her dreads looked very healthy and clean. And the hair at her crown was a few inches long, very shiny and pretty. It didn't look pulled down by the weight at all. Simply lovely!!

Dreads are not something I'd probably choose for myself, but I have to say I admire them a great deal when they are healthy and clean. And this girl's were super long. She said she'd been growing them for 13 years. She hardly looked old enough to have been doing so...it's like she must have started as a very young teen. She was a very sweet young woman too, just lovely all the way around.

Anyway, just had to mention it.

Cheers!

I have to agree. Dreads on me just wouldn’t work but on some people I find them very attractive. One of my study partners was blonde haired, blue eyed, and just cute as a button. She would probably smack me for saying that but its true . She had waist length dreads that were beautiful and they completely fit her style.

I have a soft spot for dreadlocks as well and feel similarly about them as I do about long hair: when it's clean and healthy, it's a joy to see them! Ole Gray Mare, the girl you met sounded very beautiful and knee-length tresses certainly are an impressive and unusual sight, no matter what form they come in. Did you compliment her on her dreads?

Re: Incredible long dreadlock sighting

i must admit i loooooove beautiful dreads. i'd love to have dreads myself but at the same time, i don't wanna destroy my hair. maybe i'll get dreads if i ever want to return to short hair again...

knee-length dreads... i'm trying to imagine how long hear hair has to be for that.. i guess it would reach the floor if she didn't wear it dreaded.. wow.

Re: Incredible long dreadlock sighting

sounds gorgeous.
I keep saying the reason I don't dread is that I'd have to watch my hair shrink first!
