Ghostrye:

ummm I don't know, maybe because the owner of the hair doesn't feel like combing it, because it is his hair and he/she can manage it whichever goddamn way they want?

Harllaby:
It pises me off when I see the way some fellows thinks. Some just dish out comment like a programmed robot being controlled by religion indoctrination.
Op, the bias is deeply rooted in traditional religious beliefs and myths, especially in this part of Nigeria. Often times, people with dada are tagged negatively in likes of mentally challenged person, Yahoo guys, mad person.

These superstitions and beliefs ignite fear and portraited evil in the society which have been deeply entrenched into people's mind and certain religious group renforced the belief among their followers. Only certain people who questioned their culture and belief become emancipated from their culture and religion dogma.

So if you like dada hairstyle, feel free to go make one for yourself. Dreadlock is the style name. Basket mouth, Olamide, Rema, Flavor, formal Psquare, Zlanta once rock the hairstyles and some are still rocking it. No spirituality, no cause, no negativity, it just vibe, trend and lifestyle

Because they are dirty simple and short.

Why stop at hair? I hope they don't don't shave armpits too and pubic hairs because they can do whatever dirty rubbish they want to.

Mizwisdom:



Better find how you will cut it off, nobody should tell you that it isn't a good thing. It destroys destinies. If you can name one important personality, I'm not talking of an Igbo smoking gangster, entertainer or musician who is a dreadlock, I will change my point of view

silverr:


Of course, a very good sign of laziness and dirtiness

SKhanmi:


How? Can you explain better? And how about those that have it naturally as kids?

Adezanoti:
Look for kelechi amadi obi . He is among the top 5 if not 3 photographer in Nigeria and Africa as a whole. He is someone to recon with and he sometimes keeps to dread. Meanwhile, not having you being called a celebrity or televised here and there doesn't tell you are not a big personality. We have many men and women in this world who just want to keep it cool. Let's not divert the topic dear.
To me, I believe one should go for anything that he/she finds joy in doing. We shouldn't attach everything to religion! My own Kobo though!

oga u seem to be talking from bedroom wisdom!

Sterope:
Dreadlock

Matted hair = dreadlock

So if I let my hair run free without combing it for a while like a month or two- it would start the locking process. Some hair are easily matted than others.

Or I could decide to lock it myself. There are two ways to achieve that.

So don't be a paranoid liar. There is nothing marine or spiritual about dreadlocks. IT IS A HAIRSTYLE. It is made hair, the hair in the head, natural oil God created from the body and maybe a bit of ingredients like shea butter, oil or even cream.

Ghostrye:

Same way nobody asked you not to shave or tries to dictate how you wear your clothes or trim your beards, your food might just be their poison. Doesn't mean they are dirty or lazy, it just means you should learn to mind your bonking business

Dear.. don't be deceived.. dada is a spiritual thing... If you want to know more.. go and study demonology ..
Why is it that dada is restricted to some churches. Why is it that if any penticostial have dada.. when it is traced, it is either the foundation der of that church lias with some orthodox church ..
And some say Samson is Dada.. dear be guided, Samson is not dada.. the Bible recorded that his hair was in 6 strands Ni . And there is a diff between 6stands if hair and dada

OyiOtukpo:
There's nothing wrong at all with dreads for all I know. The natural dreads are hereditary and symbolize nothing spiritually. Superstition made it scary and religion has come to cap it.
The fashion dreads, otherwise known as the social dreads come as you have seen them with nothing spiritually attached.
Hair naturally tangles and locks due to movement of wind through the hair. If the owner doesn't comb it, the hair must consequently dread. There's no spirit that tangles hair. My nephew had genetic dreads (his mother had it). At 7months old, we were tired of frequently combing out the dreads and within hours, it would lock back like no one ever combed it. His father returned from work one evening and ran his clipper through the son's hair. The Africans around our neighborhood were stunned we didn't do any ritual or wait for the boy to demand something in exchange for the hair. Some said he'd die before a year, others said he'd lose his sense before 2yrs. They said we should get a "powerful man of God" to cancel that. My brother and his wife didn't even remember to think of that. He's in his mid 20s now and doing great as an engineer in the UK.
What you think of something is what it is. Dreadlock, apart from fashion is just another hair type.

Grandmeister:

Those dreads are mostly not the real deal naa..look at the locks and you will see they ain't the real thing.

silverr:


The first guys hair looks artificial like twisted wool. So I can't really say.

For the second picture, even though she tries to keep it clean, the dirty vibe is still there and doesn't change the fact that the hair is oozing with all sorts of bacteria

CAPSLOCKED:
BY NATURE OF OUR RACE, DADA IS THE NATURAL FORM OF OUR HAIRS IF WE LET IT GROW FROM THE ROOTS WITHOUT COMBING OR TOUCHING IT.

THIS IS WHY YOU SEE MANY MADMEN AND PRISONERS WITH DREADS. IT HAS NOW BECOME FASHION, AS EUROPEANS AND AMERICANS PAY MONEY TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE NATURALLY. IT'S THE SAME WAY OUR WOMEN PAY MONEY TO HAVE THEIR HAIRS LOOKING LIKE THAT OF EUROPEAN WOMEN.

HOWEVER, I EXPECT US TO ASCRIBE IT TO MARINE SPIRITS AND WITCHES BECAUSE WE'RE STUPĮDLY SUPERSTITIOUS IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD.

MistarT:
The best and surest adviser is the Holy Spirit, however with little knowledge about dreadlocks, there's a comma somewhere, if you have a child with dreads, prayerfully cut it, that is why most believers cut their children's hair before dedication, the words I write are not comprehendable with a carnal mind, they're spiritually discerned. God bless you.

Topmaike007:
nobody get the thing naturally, if you have curly hair from the beginning and they refuse to comb the hair na dada be the next thing

JessetariahMD:

Why is it synonymous with mad men and prisoners?
Because it's symbolic with dirtiness. Ever heard of unclean spirits?
Why shouldn't you comb your hair?

MistarT:
Few hours back I was pondering within me about this same "dreadlocks" well my take is dreadlocks has been hijacked, Samson was a frontliner as regards dreadlocks but that was God ordained however today the Marine kingdom and their subsidiaries (using the name of church) have hijacked dreadlocks.

CAPSLOCKED:


OVER 80% OF YOUNG WOMEN IN NIGERIA ESPECIALLY STUDENTS AND HUSTLERS HAVE REALLY SMELLY HAIR. MADAM HOW MANY CAMPAIGNS HAVE YOU ANCHORED TO STOP THEM FROM BRAIDING OR FIXING SO THAT THEY CAN WASH THEIR HAIRS EVERYDAY?

AND FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE THE LADY IN THAT PICTURE IS THE LEGENDARY ASA. YOU CAN GOOGLE HER OUT BEFORE SAYING HER HAIR IS DIRTY AND OOZING WITH BACTERIA.
