Good morning everyone! I hope it is a good one.

Hi Scott, Darrel and all the rest of you!
I'm thinking up getting my hair put up in dreads. My hair is more than halfway down my back so I should be able to end up with shoulder length dreads, or longer, I don't know. having a hard time finding a place that does it..... Plus, I bet it ain't cheap.
Feel free to chime in with your opinions!
A few years ago my daughter did hers. Her hair was just below her shoulders. She did some research and watched some videos. She bought some stuff to use while doing it.
It took her a couple days to do. And her husband helped her some.
After it takes constant work to keep the dreads locked tight. Some hair types take to it better than others too.
She kept it for a couple years then took them out. She put up with all the frizzy till it went back to normal.
It is a look that can be maintained and the hair can be kept clean.
A big decision for sure.
I love guys with long hair. Always have.
Hi everyone!
Sorry don't get chance to drop in as much these days .
Friend has VV grand he needs fixed, is Robert still repairing them or just turning them into mechs if sent in?
OK will do thanks KarenAs far as I know he has NOT stated he stopped fixing them. I think he kept enough parts to do them for awhile.
Be safe and PM him to double check though!
Thanks for the info, Karen. My hair is pretty straight but does have curls depending on the humidity. It's in good shape. I vowed that once I went out on disability I'd never cut my hair again. And I won't. Doesn't mean I can't mess with it though
So you're saying I can watch some videos and do this myself, with some help from a friend? If so, where on her head did you daughter start: back, sides, front? I don't want to look stupid for a few days though I don't think it bother me too much. If I can wrap a good coil I should be able to do dreads(meaning I do well with youtube vids)
Thanks for the insight!
Don't like too much fuss about being prim and proper. That being said, I do work in an industry where image is everything and folks will judge you, no matter how great you are. It happens to me all the time. I look kind of hippy-ish with my long, unkempt hair. I guess my concern is given your situation with your boy and the courts, I would recommend against this image change until you have things squared away. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for personal expression and trying new looks, but I do know that the "old school" will look down their nose at you and you may lose valuable credibility in your fight. Just my 2 cents...sent with ((
