almost a year

Coming up on celebrating my dread's first birthday is pretty exciting! Well, for me anyway ;) They aren't as tight as they used to be - I let them go pretty naturally. I have a 1mm crochet hook to do some maintenance soon, however. I love the length of loose curl I have but I want from the roots to where the curl begins to be more clean and tight.

I'll be posting pics of freshly henna'd dreadlocks soon too!

It's wash day! (It repeats every 2 days) Here are my still air drying dreads today ... enjoy!
That curly dread on my right likes to stick out after a good dread soap wash. I really need a weighted bead for it!

Happy Spring dreads!

I don't have to go far to enjoy the cherry blossoms :)

an update ... finally!

It's been a long time since I posted pics of my dreads. Well, here they are. Wild and a bit crazy white girl dreads at their finest! I love them most days but like any hair style, I often tell myself (to myself) it's the scissors! I keep them up though and am looking forward to seeing how they do come summer.

I'm not certain which Goddess or aspect I am channeling by sporting a head full of dreads. I've often felt a wildness creep back into me like I haven't noticed in decades, literally. Ancient wall paintings of Egyptians look as if dreadlocks were worn. I could easily picture a Huntress in the wood with a mane so wild.

I love them, I really do. It'd be great if I could hide a personal web cam on my person sometimes though. I get the oddest looks every now and then!



Thanks for dropping by!

It's been awhile ...

I hope everyone had a wonderful Winter Solstice! Blessed Yule and happy holidays to all!

I know, I know!

I've been MIA. My dreads are still here ... bendy, knotty, and crazy like me! But, we've moved recently and I'm alone with baby girl while hubby is at a base in KY for training. 3 more weeks to go and maaaaybe I'll have some me time.

Till then ... bendithion!

a quickie

I take a lot of pics of my dreads LOL

Ok, so, the last time I wore anything like this was probably the 6th grade. But, I figured "why the heck not!? It's cute :)"
