No way! Shocked
thanks for the offer, but these dreads are my babies, it's kind of a sampson and dehlila thing. to renounce my dreads would be to renounce myself in all its wild and tatty glory Mr. Green

Knotty Boy dread wax smoking and a lot of patience, not scissors Daddy rolling pin Unless the person who tries to mend them broken locks knows what they are doin, sc I'd leave em alone and get proper professional help. Unless there will be someone at Sunrise.... Question

...or you could try this and start again Shocked DREADLOCK REMOVAL KIT

i'm sure there will be plenty of help at hand, just ask the one who's dreads look best. alternatively a member of my box office team is a professional hair dresser and used to have dreads. ask at the front gate for shamaya.

Wats wrong with your dreads Squidgy? I have had dreads now for 12 years and have never used wax or anything on them. Mine just grow longer and I break them apart every now and then if they are getting too thick. if they are too thin slip a bead over with some extra hair stuffed in with it and leave it for a few months. Good luck with them.

just had a call from a hairdresser who will be coming down to sunrise, she is a dredd technician and i've suggested she put an add in the program for her services.

Hehe never realised that having dreads was a hassle to some people; mine look after themselves, they just get treated like normal hair. well apart from the brushing - that could prove painful!

bout time for some decor though they are naked at the moment. hmmm, - anyone else with dreads; you know when you get them wet they take an age to dry on there own, i was thinking of sprinkling cress seeds on the top of my head and growing my own green hair for sunrise this year! does anyone think this will work?! might have to go without sleep for a few days - or at least sleep sitting up (with the 'grow' light on, hehe!) so they dont get broken off!

i recon it will take around a week so i need to get a plan together, am i insane or could this work?!?!
