    Hello All!
    I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for getting beads(maybe even Online). I haven't been successful around my way yet. Thank a bunch!
    Peace,

    I've gotten some of mine from bead stores and craft stores. i've put lotsa stuff in my hair...things that friends and loved ones have given me. Even some of the kids that I work with make stuff for me to put in my hair. A friend of mine bought wooden beads for me and painted little designs and pictures on them. Those really mean a lot.

    My hair tells a story...that's what I like the most about it.

    I tend to put things I find in my dreadies.
    Right now I have a rusty nut, and an even rustier washer.
    It gives em' a personal touch.

    i wish i could put beads in my dreads already, but ive gotta wait til they mature another 6 months and get fatter, my hair was so fine(meaning each strand was really thin) that my dreads ended up way thinner then I wanted, but theyll get fat over time i hope :)
