I personally sport dread and some months back decided to add cowries to it. I for one don't know what people think and careless about their opinion. It's just a fashion sense to say the least. It's high time Nigeria grow above anecdotal evidence and rise above superstitions cos those days when it payed are no more in vogue and far behind us.

Though, it's fashion but you can't take away the fact that Nigerians are too spiritual and different kind of cultural belief system.
Fear anyone that tells you it does not mean anything.

It's just fashion and mostly has no implications whatsoever. In fact, it should be encouraged!

It used to be associated with Dada, which is our modern dreadlock. So much that if you have dreadlocks, you can always have the cowry, it might be that you are Dada.

So our fathers says Dada olowo Eyo.
