one year. two days.
yes, it's been over a year now that i've had my dreads. i can't believe it. and i still absolutely love them. although i really wish they'd grow in length a bit. when down, they itch my neck like crazy. i'm actually beginning to think they may never grow. also, one thing i noticed, when looking at these photos is how much my ends have broken off (contributing to my length [or lack thereof] issue). i'm thinking that next year, i may not have any loose ends left. so in celebrating one year of dreadlocks, i share some photos of this dreaded journey of mine. :-)) you can also read my previous dread posts here and here and here.
have any questions, feel free to ask and i'll edit to add my answers at the bottom.
the day before i left for portland and six days later
