    So, I'm on my lunch break, and when I got to the french fry truck (some places have ice cream trucks, we have french fry trucks...Weird, I know) I meet this group of people who I haven't seen since last year, and they all complimented how much better my dreads looked then the last time they saw me, and as I ordered my french fries, I noticed that the girl working there had dreads! Which is weird, because this is the first time I've seen someone else with dreadlocks in this city! She winked at me. :D

    Not too many around here but I'll see a few every once in a while. It was great though. In a small bar near closing time on a Sunday night I was having a brew or two and there were three of us with locs in there. That was a first considering the part of town I was in.

    I see a lot of black people with dreads around where I live but they ignore me or laugh. except this one guy said he liked mine after I complimented his. I've also seen one white girl at our local wal-mart she didn't notice me but I swear her pic was on dhhq. shouldn't I see a ton more since I live in the state where dhhq is based?

    I see at least one set a day. Might have something to do with with me living with them tho. :)

    London has a fair amount of dread heads. You see a lot more of them out an about in the summer time.

    I live in silverdale, washington...kind of close to seattle and I never ever see anyone with dreads. But many people stare at me, no one comments though.

    around here (well in philly im in the burbs now tho) i see thousands of dreads all thge time
    but even more so at hgatherings you see tons (and id guess alnmost all are natural if not all) even a good number around as old as mine..and a fair hgood number on kids as young as 5 and elders in theyre 70's and above
    id guess at gatherings on any given day maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of the ppl ya dsee would be dready

    but in philly just wandering around i doubt ya could go a block or 2 without seeing at least 1 dready or more

    during the odunde fest thoigh its like 90% dreadies

    NP is right, loads of dreadies in austin. i was in venice beach last week, walking around and wearing my favorite headband and shades, prob looked like a beast.. i got so many nods and thumbs up and comments. i saw a few dreadies, too, one guy on a bike with amazing clean looking ones. people loved my locks in LA!

    I have dready city envy. :( No one here has them. Maybe I just need to get our more...

    When I lived in New Brunswick, Canada, there were a heck of a lot more dreadies around... even in the teeny town I grew up in there were some dreads. Come on Red Deer!!!

    daisy... thats because there is a super duper hippie community in fredericton. When I was living in St Andrews they'd always come and drum at the point parties we would have........

    And this thought just totally made me think of evlove festival and if I could possible have the funds to go this year....

    ........*trails off to find out the dates for evolve...*
