Christine01: Please how do I go about wearing dreadlocks?

I had to cut my shoulder-length hair about 2 months ago because it had become weak from relaxers and heat. I now carry my hair very short (like a boy). I'm loving the look ( makes me standout). I really want to try dreadlocks (Tired of weaveons). How do I go about it?

Any dreadlock carrying sister in the house? Pls help!
Luv I will not lie to you and say its an easy journey. Its a very long journey to have at least shoulder length dreadlocks. Dreadlocks are permanent so be sure when you lock them
[b]What I can advice u to do is
1 ) Keep your Afro-hair, braid your hair, or twist it for at least a year ( which are all undo-able ). Make sure that your hair line is well taken care of. Only then when your natural hair is long, you can start locking it. It makes the journey shorter, though for them to lock may take a couple of visits to your hairstylist. cheesy cheesy cheesy
2 ) Be patient eeehn !!!!( it can take up to two years ) cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
3 ) The starting phase is no joke, your hair will look like the ejim blessing above ( no offence ) but its all worth it in the end smiley smiley smiley
4 ) Since the starting phase is no joke, its better to do your hair with a specialist who will neatly do them in rows and treat your hair and make sure that they are always conditioned and clean, to avoid people assuming alot of things about you and your hair ( weed smoker etc )
5 ) Do not do your hair at any Tom, Dick & Harry look for a reputable dreadlock specialist, who will understand your journey with you and advice you accordingly.
6 ) The styles are limitless for both short and long dreadlock. I am not sure where you are but in Nigeria, they are not yet good with locks and styling them as well ( no offence again)
7 ) I must say this again, locks need constant washing, conditioning and moisturising. Which I used to do on a weekly basis when they were still short and plait my locks after one week.
8 ) Remember to celebrate your journey by taking pics, its very encouraging wink wink wink wink wink
[/b]
Mine are now way beyond shoulder length, and the nice put about them is that whenever you get tired you can cut them and keep them and later sew them back to your hair ( so its your own dreadlock weave-on cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy )

Good luck wink wink wink wink

See example of short dreadlocks styling.

FamilyRe: At 46yrs, Is It Late For Him To Start A Family? by chineloSA(f): 1:10am On Nov 13, 2013
ryom: Hmmm. Lots of interesting comments here for and against. Since I'm sort of close to the lady as well, I was thinking of checking that she is really sure this was what she wanted. My friend is what you would describe as a perfect gentleman. He is not pushing for it though he feels if he doesn't get married now, then that's it, much to the chagrin of his family. He is just as concerned, doesn't want to be seen as taking any advantage of the lady. Like someone mentioned its difficult to say if the lady is just excited to be in a relationship or if she had really thought it through. When the guy is 65, the lady will just be 42. Ordinarily it's like she faces early widowhood, but only God holds life. Looking at them, they seem so in love. Well, life is never perfect.
OP, look these two people are at very different developmental stages in life ( physically and emotional,psychological and socially ). The girl is just excited, the reality will become reality after the wedding. Either way one will be compelled to adjust to the level of the dominant one. Eventually someone will be left unhappy. It may be the woman or man. No amount of understanding can resolve that.

I hope we don't see her here opening threads like " I like s...x but he doesnt, what do I do" But its her ow choice, viagra will always be there.
I hope we dont see the men here opening thread like " She doesn't cook, she goes to parties and doesnt take care of anything. What do I do"
grin grin grin grin grin

Good luck to them, I am not God though. wink wink

[quote author=Sisi_Kill]Lol! Baby, the man said he would rather Commit Suicide than marry the girl....SUICIDE oh!!

It is that serious. cheesy cheesy cheesy[/quote]grin grin grin grin grin grin wink
This is serious o. Simply tell the wedding planner if you had one.Unfortunately you still have to pay for all the services plus the services to cancel. Also use the invitation list to send them cancellation cards or e-mail or message's

Also don't underestimate the power of snowballing, tell a few people in a few circles and it will snowball like that. People will phone for confirmation.

If you need a "AM SINGLE AGAIN PARTY" don't hesitate to contact me cheesy cheesy cheesy

That's wack. undecided undecided undecided undecided Sorry o. smiley

FamilyRe: Help!!! My Wife Is Ruining Our Marriage by chineloSA(f): 10:19pm On Nov 12, 2013
OP, I think you let this happen from the beginning. In the beginning you did not put your foot down. You teach people how to treat you. In your case you allowed the behaviour in the beginning and hence she does not see anything wrong with what she is doing.

The way you two deal with conflict indicates more that meets the eye. It indicates :
1)Lack of communication, lack of friendship ( your are not friends enough )
2)Lack of trust, empathy, sympathy
3)Lack of understanding
4)Desire of approval from your wife
5)Lack of emotional relationship
6)Narccistic behavior ( she thinks she is always right hence she shouts to the ends of the world when u faulter ) and a lot of underlying issue.

Your problem requires a third party intervention. An objective third party who will facilitate in letting you both vent out your fears, frustrations, etc. Preferably I would suggest a neutral person like a professional not pastor, not family, someone like a marriage counsellor.

This has nothing to do with how she handles things it all underlying issues. wink wink wink wink

Good luck though smiley smiley smiley

Nomski0: Did she say it started in SA?undecided It's common in SA......very common.
Both countries its common. It just Naija girls abort and SA girls decide to keep till full term. undecided undecided

So both countries are on par with regards to unwanted pregnancy. Naija own is even worse because we masqurade as angels while we flush the baby. We even have baby factories angry angry

So abeg, there is no angel between the two.

Mujah1deen: Catholicism is made of doctrines, if you don't follow them or don't believe in them it means you are not Catholic.
Not True, Catholicism has seven sacraments. Not all of us get them, but it does not mean you are less of a Catholic

You will learn there's nothing to worry about, Islam is clear and pure .

I really don't know what you are talking about, are you sure they asked you to take a shower with that paper?,
Yes an Arabic prayer on a paper and I was told to put it in water and bath with it.

Questioning is not wrong, only questioning to ridicule is wrong .
The problem is that Muslims always finds anything and everything ridiculous and blasphemous. Catholic get ridiculed but dont take it as blasphemous

what's wrong with the Islamic dressing?
Personally, I do not agree with some of it. Like head cover

BTW Latin is still used and there are prayers that are said in Latin.
Latin is not by force, there is always an English or Native Language translation. Those who normally use it is the older brain washed generation. The younger generation doesnt know whats cooking
