A Long Time in Coming

To begin, I must tell you how I got my weird hair in the first place.  I've been married to my guy since the last millennium, and he never, ever used to give me any opinions on my style at all (no matter how much I asked). For years, however, he would joke that I should get dreadlocks, put sticks and stuff in my hair, and lead for a heavy metal band.  I never thought anything of it until one day it hit me that I was worrying to much about what other people thought (not something I realized I did at all), and not really caring about what he really thought.  Well I had married him, not all those other people, hadn't I.  I was suddenly convicted, and I mean really spiritually convicted, that my man was only joking about me getting dreadlocks, because he believed that I would never really do it. The next day, I started on my first dreadlocks.
I struggled a bit with my first batch of dreads, but now that I've learned a few things I'm loving my second time around with dreadlocks. This page will be all about helping you achieve beautiful dreadlocks with the least amount of fuss. I'll share pictures, tutorials and style ideas for locks.  Where I live, people stop me on the street to compliment, and ask me questions about my hair.  While that is fun, it matters more to me that my husband loves my crazy dreadlocks.
By the way, I still don't put sticks in my hair, but my man and I are working on a metal project that will be called Sorrows Ending... if we ever get it outside our studio doors.
