      looks can be deceiving, though.
      I've met plenty of total douches during my years as a digital nomad. I've long since learned not to trust appearances.
      people like "omg you aren't into yoga? LOOO-SERR". or "you aren't VEGAN?? get away from me, murderer". and plenty of rich, spoiled fake hippies whose parents fund their so-called "soul travels" so they can use drugs and lie around judging people who prefer Mexico over Bora Bora: "only losers hang out in Mexico".
      I don't buy people's "woke" bullshit. just saying. one may smile and smile and be a villain.
      you know how you can't believe everything you read? you can't believe everything the digital world shows you, too.
      just saying...I've met many internet personalities during my travels...youtubers, bloggers, travel writers, photographers, etc....and I'd def rather hang out at a soda and play checkers with a couple local Costa Ricans or smoke a Thai stick on a porch with a blue collar Sri Lankan any day of the week. their realness is comfortable and welcoming.

      ​@@roflmows lmao this sounds a lot more like a personal struggle/personal battle with trauma.... I've been homeless many times in "hippie" communities such as Humboldt county, CA..... I've been deeply involved with people who are simillar to your description....However, everyone has a right to their own process..... You can call them what you want, and pretend/convince yourself they aren't on the same wavelength as you, but you're only as right as you believe you are....

    Beautiful video! I had my dreads for six years and I cut them right before my wedding. I had short hair for 2 1/2 years and I just recently put my dreads back in, it is week two and my biggest regret is that I cut them in the beginning. I plan to keep them and I found that shaving my sides and the back is so comforting to my neck you can’t tell that my sides and back are shaved I have super thick hair. I also learned a very valuable lesson, I believe that cutting my hair I had lost a lot of strength, now the dreads are back in and I will regained my strength. I had realize this going through the cutting journey and the events that happened within the new dread journey a completely fascinated experience and it has only been two weeks. I feel more grounded, more connected with nature and completely balanced mind body and spirit. This is my journey that I have experienced.

I started putting locks in my hair a few years ago, I was only able to do the top ,sides and a bit if the back. I used a bent fork to back comb. I wish I never took them out. I always have my hair in a bandanna because I do not like messing with my hair. I think I will start them again! Once again thanks and much much love❤

    For those you thinking of using Castile soap in their locks, don't do it if you have hard water. It will build up to like white mush inside your locks. It came out over time when I switched back to baking soda but some people don't pay as much attention to their locks and the buildup can get to a point they can't handle and they end up doing something drastic. Beware!

    Hey Guys,
    So first of all I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO and I am a supporter of your page and your journey! However, just a quick history lesson, If you don't mind :)
    Your hair should be referred to as "Locs" because your hair is "locked." The word "Dreadlock" came about during the time of slavery in America. African slaves who had locked hair were told that they looked "dreadful" from their white oppressors. The white crews would bring the enslaved Africans up on deck to wash them off. They saw that the thick hair of the Africans was full of vomit, blood, and feces from the trip to America from Africa and their hair had matted into "dreadful locks". Hence the word "Dreadlock" was born.
    I think you both are amazing people and I don't mean to be negative BY ANY MEANS. I just thought you'd like to know :)

    I have always wanted dreads, but my hair is so thin, I would probably look ridiculous. I love how you address the ridiculous things that people assume because you have dreads. You are each beautiful souls inside and out, if others don't see that; it's their loss. Loved seeing little Azalea starting to take those precious beginning steps! Soon you will be chasing her everywhere!😃 Can't wait for the next video, until then may you be surrounded by love, laughter, and joy!❤💋

      Tammy Lockley I think dreadlocks are great for thin hair and was a big reason I finally got dreads. They thicken up over time so it actually gives you a full head of hair. I have since brushed out my dreads but am growing out my hair so I can go back to dreads. If you have always wanted them you should definitely try, and you will likely wonder why you waited so long to do it, but if you decide it doesn’t look right for you then you can always brush them out!

    The History of Dreadlocks
    BY KNOTTY EMX
    The following blog excerpt contains an overview of the history of dreadlocks by Knotty EmX. Reprinted with permission.
    The first known examples of the hairstyle date back to ancient Egypt, where dreadlocks appeared on Egyptian artifacts. Mummified remains of ancient Egyptians with dreadlocks have even been recovered from archaeological sites.
    The Old Testament also recounts the tale of Samson and Delilah in which a man's potency is directly linked to 'the seven locks on his head' and according to Roman accounts, the Celts were described to have 'hair like snakes' Germanic tribes, Greeks and the Vikings are all said to have worn dreadlocks too.
    Rastafarianism however is something entirely separate. It was born in the 1930s when Ras Tafari was crowned emperor of Ethiopia. When the emperor was forced into exile during an invasion, guerrilla warriors swore not to cut their hair until the emperor was reinstated. The religion resonated with the ideologies of the day, for example socialism, Marxism, nationalism and black power. It was therefore, seen as a threat to Christianity and came under attack by the authorities that tried to suppress the 'Rasta' movement and imprisoned those who possessed 'ganja'. Rastafarians smoked cannabis because they thought it prompted a clearer state of well - being. Their dreadlocks were thought to be disgusting and frightening, hence the term 'dread' which was later reclaimed by the 'Rasta' community.
    The hairstyle was later brought into mainstream culture through the worldwide success of reggae artist Bob Marley. Sporting locks himself, he prompted an international interest in the style, and the anti establishment philosophy of Rastafarian culture.
    Dreadlocks became increasingly popular and there are many reasons in various cultures for wearing them. They can be an expression of deep religious or spiritual convictions, a manifestation of ethnic pride. They can make a political statement, or simply be a fashion preference.
    This essay on the history of dreadlocks is written by our own Knotty Vic Dicara, from the hardcore bands Beyond, Inside Out with Zack de la Rocha and 108. Reprinted with permission
    The History of Dreadlocks
    BY VIC D
    Left to its own devices, hair will naturally knot together and form mats or "dreadlocks". Upon seeing Dreadlocks, most people think of Bob Marley, reggae, and Rastafarianism, unaware that the roots of Dreadlocks go back much further, to at least 2500 BCE with the Dreadlocked Vedic deity Shiva and his followers.
    Dreadlocks are a universal phenomenon in the East as well as in the West. Spiritualists of all faiths and backgrounds incorporate into their paths a disregard for physical appearances and vanity. And so, throughout the world, such seekers often cease to comb, cut, or otherwise dress their hair: This is how "dreadlocks" are born.
    In the West, the Nazarite is most widely known for developing Dreadlocks. In the East, Yogis, Gyanis, and Tapasvis of all sects are the most famous bearers of Dreadlocks.
    Dreadlocks, then, are universally symbolic of a spiritualist's understanding that vanity and physical appearances are unimportant. The counterpart to Dreadlocks is the shaven head, which has the same aim: disregard for vanity associated with physical appearances. Usually we find that spiritualists whose religious path includes elaborate rituals tend to embrace the shaven head technique as it affords a level of ritual cleanliness, while those mystics who adopt meditative or otherwise non-ritualistic paths prefer to disregard the hair altogether and thus develop Dreadlocks.
    Dreadlocks are more than just a symbolic statement of disregard for physical appearance. Both Eastern and Western Traditions hold that bodily, mental and spiritual energies mainly exit the body through the top of the head and the hair. If the hair is knotted, they believe, the energy remains within the hair and the body, keeping a person more strong and healthy.
    An excellent example from Western tradition is biblical Sampson, whose unsurpassed strength was lost when Delilah cut off his *seven* locks of hair. In classical India, all students on the spiritual path were directly enjoined by their scriptures to develop Dreadlocks as a means to detach them from physical vanity and aid them in the development of bodily strength and supernatural mental and spiritual powers.
    As the world moved into the Industrial Era, Dreadlocks were rarely seen anywhere outside of India. However, at the turn of the Twentieth Century, a socio-religious movement started in Harlem, NY by Marcus Garvey found an enthusiastic following amongst the Black population of Jamaica. This ecclectic group drew their influences from three primary sources (1) the Old and New Testaments, (2) African tribal culture, and (3) The Hindu culture that had recently become a pervasive cultural force in the West Indies.
    The followers of this movement called themselves "Dreads," signifying that they had a dread, fear, or respect for God. Emulating Hindu and Nazarite holymen, these "Dreads" grew matted locks of hair, which would become known to the world as "Dreadlocks" - the hair-style of the Dreads.
    Soon after, this group would focus their attention on the Ethiopian Emperor Ras Tafari, Haile Selassie, and thus became known as Rastafarians. But the term "Dreadlocks" stuck.
    Ever since becoming connected with the Rastafarians in the early 1900's, Dreadlocks have taken on, in addition to their original religious and spiritual significance, a potent social symbolism as well. Today, Dreadlocks signify spiritual intent, natural and supernatural powers, and are a statement of non-violent non-conformity, communalism and socialistic values, and solidarity with less fortunate or oppressed minorities.

    So...I've been Dreadybill for somewhere around 15 yrs kinda lost track of exact date. But its been a long dedicated journey. For me my dreads represent several things. They have grown with me into the person I am today. They have grounded me in a way that's hard to discribe but every day I feel blessed and always tend to receive Possitive Complents from all ages of people. And that makes me 😀👍
    I have poured out many o bowels of some Nasty water doin clenses! Although I hardly ever "matainence"them anymore and wash them with Dr B's when needed. And that's about it!
    Looking forward to your next post as always. Bless up🙏
    Ps
    DEFINETLY recommend you guys check out the hocking hills area if you make your way to Ohio!✌😎👍

    There’s these pretty awesome absorbent towels that work great for squeeze drying dreads. They’re orange and I used them to wash a puli dog at a groomer and I adored getting to do her lock maintenance. I should have done stuff like the vinegar. The wash process was always a bit of a tough one. But it was a lot of fun to do. She was very white. Used some purple shampoo to whiten her. It smelled like banana flavor does. Haha.

    Juby, I am about to dread my hair for the first time and the way your dreads look is exactly how I want mine to come in. Glad I watched this video cause I have been looking everywhere on how to get that dread texture. Interlocking. Got it! I go back and forth about dreads around my face or leaving a fringe (bangs). Here are the questions... I have very fine hair. Will the hair around my face tend to pull in an irritating way because of baby hairs when dreaded? Can you start dreads just by interlocking or do you have to start them with the backcomb method? Lastly approx how many dreads do you have? Peace and crunchy granola to you and your fam :)

  • @allisfaith

    I have fine, blond, pin straight hair. I got a perm and so every time I washed my hair the knots would get tighter and tighter automatically. I would pull them apart or cut them apart at the root as needed and the I after 6 months I had long thick dreadlocks. I loved them, I had thick glorious hair for the first time ever and I didn’t have to brush my hair which I hated to do (stil do). Just info for those out there with the texture of hair like mine. Cheers!
