Dread locks

Not sure where to post this but my husband wants me to get dreads and idk how to feel about it lol I am afraid of hating them and how do you even get rid of them? Has anyone had dreads before? Any advice?

Don't get them because your husband wants you to. Get them if YOU want them.

Well I kinda suggested it just to see what he would say and he loved the idea and now he's really excited about it lol

Get the fake ones just to see if you like it first

I hate natural dreads a couple years ago. I loved them. I only had to cut one out. The rest took forever to comb out with a lot of conditioner and oils.

I just don't see the appeal. Plenty of other styles that are in the same wheel house without having them.It's a huge commitment only do it if you truly want to do it.

I had fake yarn dreads... I'd say if you don't really know if you want them you can get those bc you can remove them whenever

I had them and eventually got tired of them, ended up having to cut off all my hair. I wasn't bald since they didn't lock all the way to the root, but my hair was short enough that I felt bald. The texture of your hair is also a big factor, if you have to back comb your hair to make the texture suitable to loc then you shouldn't be getting them. If dreads can't be formed by a two strand twist and a palm roll it's not a good idea to be getting them. Back combing and methods like that cause mold in the hair.

Dreads are a really really big commitment.
