So I havn't combed in 9 months and im kinda feling down on my hair today. I know that it's a long process and im up for the journey but i hit a rough patch. I'm hoping that evryone here can motivate me and help me get over this hump. So please post the bad ass dreads you have grown or seen. Oh yeah and one more thing. I just got a industrial yesterday. What do i do to care for it? Is it a good idea to spin it around once in awhile? Do i use alcohol and a Q-tip to clean it? Any advise is appreciated.
dont ever use alcohol or peroxide on a piercing. dont rotate it. do warm sea salt soaks once or twice a day and if you like, wash it with a little bit of unscented soap in the shower. hot chamomile tea bag compressed are good for reducing swelling and pain. otherwise, dont touch it, just let your body heal it. good luck! heres some pretty pictures- and theres plenty more where they came from.
oh they look great! im so impressed that you and roji have so much locking action going on with such short hair. mine looked like crap at that age and my hair was twice as long as yours. the pics are picked from that other dreadlocks board... whatever its called. they have a picture thread thats like 200 pages long and i um went through the whole thing. yes i have no life. but at least i have pretty pictures hehe
I think I know that guy in the second last pic, or at least someone who looks very similar and also does contact juggling... I'll find a pic of him... http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/canberra05/DSC00553.jpg The dude in the background.
A local author whom I met in Venice Beach, his name is Peter. His dreads are awesome, so much character And you should all check out his book cause it rocks *shameless plug* & the nameless girl that inspired me whom I wish I knew and could tell her how beautiful she is.
I stumbled on this one using a livejournal random pictur generator (here) I love this thread too, it's my favorite on the board right now =)
