    Also, there are as many varieties of dreads as there are wine, and both get better with age. ;)

    I'm not a fan of NC or the south in general... I was supposed to be moving out west at the end of this year, but the economy pretty much put that idea off for at least another year, so I'm making the best of it.Charlotte is probably the most tolerable place around here though. If I had a choice to live anywhere in NC, I'd prefer the beach, but its a little hard to live there. Pretty much dead during the winter and then there's hurricane season.

    then here's some pics I just took a few mins ago... excuse the way I look, I just got off of work at 7 and I haven't dyed my roots in a couple months. It's been 2 days short of a week since I started my dreads.

    don't wash them for a long long time... theyll prolly fall out if you do.


    good luck

    will be re-dyeing the roots white in about 3 or 4 months, but for now I'm just gonna let them do their thing.
