i think dreads would look very good on you but they will shrink up ALOT (or at least mine did) here's a few pics for comparison of my hair at different stages: 1) before i dreaded it 2) right after i dreaded it (within the first 2 weeks) 3) most recent pic of me (after 1 year of dreads) and this was about 6 months in.. at their shortest (haha, dont worry, those pills arent mine):
i really wish i had my dreads back..if you want to i would totally say go for it..i would definatly still have them if i could..now i just have to wait until my hair is longer....its sooo short right now...if your parents and family are cool with it its a great idea...mine werent and my parents threatened to take away all my privleges if i didnt take them out..so now i have to wait untill college..which is next year...just rememeber it takes a long time before they really dread and look good..peace and love
My parents never really punish me for anything, they know its my hair, i can do whatever I want to it. My brother mentioned that the only "real way" to get dreads is to shave your head... what is he talking about?
You really, really shouldn't have cut your hair before you decided that you want dreads. They are gonna shrink big time. My hair was practically down to my ass before I dreaded my hair. Now...about 9 months later, my hair doesn't even rest on my shoulders. So yeah, I would say you'll look cute with dreads...but just make sure you won't mind the majorly short dreadies to begin with.
I think they would look kick ass, you deffinitely have the face for it. I wish I could do it. I want dreads so bad, but I just recently cut my hair uber short, so I can't do it now for a few years Whats a good hair style for short hair? it's not pixie short, but almost...i've just been putting a little moose in it when its wet and making it look really messy, I don't like to wash it often coz its messier looking when it's slightly dirty...but I wanna do something a little different...any suggestions?
you'd be able to make them, but your brother's right that most white people don't look good with dreads. You're adorable, though
