dreadlocked hair q from a newbie

Post by sator » Wed Aug 11, 2004 3:41 pm

Somebody just posted a question about curly hair, and that got me thinking. I have nice neat dreads; the kinds of dreads that are suitable for an upper-middle class salaryman. Though the dreads go part-way down my back, I don't own a proper dread hat, cap, or tam.

Will they be a tattered mess after a week on the playa?

Probably so. I've herd DMV folks refer to them as 'shitlocks' after the playa dust gets 'em.

Somewhere here there is a whole thread dealing with Dreads on the Playa. Did you do the search with the website search tool? Look for the hot links above this section, on this same page, it's called "search It could also be in one of the forums on the old "Eplay" which can be found on the main page of the Discussion board.

It may even be somewhere on the old e-playa http://oldbbs.burningman.com/
Which, BTW, is a wholly underutilized resource. LOTS of good stuff.
