    That was what I was thinking, the only way your hair would "repel" water is if it is really oily and since Pat doesn't use soap I'd bet his locks are pretty oily.

    Nah, my gf doesn't use soap and her locks or scalp aren't oily. They also absorb water.

    Well then maybe Pat just has special hair.

    Her dreads obviously aren't mature yet:rolleyes:

    On a serious note, I don't think Pat's locks look oily, I just don't think he soaks his dreads that long. (only the man himself can shed light on this). The lack of soap shouldn't be a problem if weaned off over time..

    No I get them wet maybe once every 3 or 4 months if that. I just tie them up when I shower so I can wash behind my neck easily

    And I'm sure that if I leave them submerged for extended periods they would absorb some water. But when I go swiming and stuff they come out pretty bone dry except for the roots. Loose hair at the roots normally gets wet

    So basically we need to ask him how long he showers for?

    She's got loads and loads of loose hair. The actually locks though are pretty mature if you ask me. I had to rip for her a couple weeks ago. It was a hellish job which I did not finish.

    So is it agreed then, that the only time your locks are truly mature is when they were started negect and can no longer absorb water?

    Maybe it's cause you have little bitch arms?

    And I never said anything along those lines. My dreads are 4 years old, formed through complete neglect except for the ripping I did 2 years in because I had a complete helmet of knots. So they're extremely tight

    your body tends to produce as much oil as you need... wash more often and "squeaky" clean, your body produced more oil to compensate. Less often and your body produces less. It eventually levels out. Which is why bedridden people that wash infrequently don't have oily hair even though its seldomly washed.

    Did I say that you said something along those lines? No.

    Also thanks again for pointing out that I'm skinny and you don't like it. Are you insecure with your weight pat? You don't have any reason to be.

    Funny how you often point out how skinny I am and how huge and muscular the boys in your metal bands are. Sounds like you have a little boy crush on big beefy guys who wear black and don't use the letter "c" How cute and preteen.

    I am quite happy with my physique.

    You talk about me getting wet lots. Do you have a little boy crush on me and want to see me shower or something? Will it fill the void that your real life relationship lacks?

    Actually I only mentioned your fib about your hair once. You and other people are the ones still discussing it.

    There is no void in my real life relationship. I am completely in love and am completely loved. I don't know if you are in a similar situation and if you aren't, I hope some day you will find that. Even if you are a flamer.

    I actually thought you guys hung out in person frequently. Not for a total of 2 weeks over the past two years.

    I dont know why you seemed to be so obsessed with my relationship pat. Maybe instead of worrying about me and SL so much you should focus on your relationship. I think you might spend a bit too much time on here. Anyways, I'm done "discussing" my relationship with you. You and your negativity/bigotry/ego aren't worth it.

    Your dreads may be mature, but you certainly aren't.

    I'm not obsessed with your relationship. It's just an easy target and I think you're pathetic so I use it against you when you take cheap shots on me

    Way to be the bigger man and end this lol

    The way you two argue,... I think its kinda cute. And you both have girlfriends on this forum,... thats cute too. :D

    For the record, my dreads don't hold water except at the tips and roots, which are the only parts that aren't matted. I've been doing the neglect method for a little over a year.
