cocheese 0 #26 April 25, 2009 Unless you're in a money making (regGAY) band, chop it. Dude, i think there is a bird living in there. It worries me when those with long hair have no idea what to do with it. What else do you need help with? Next it will be the chest strap rubbing on your nipple rings i bet.

Cari 0 #27 April 26, 2009 My hair is to my butt and pretty thick. I don't have dreads to contend with, but I've found the best way to deal with my hair is to hold it in my hand like I'm going to put it in a regular old low ponytail, fold it in half so it loops, put the band around it once, fold it again, and wrap it around again. It basically makes a low bun-type thing. I do it loosely so that it doesn't just get wedged in one spot and get uncomfortable. If you do it slightly off to the side, you don't get so much arch interference. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p1p3 0 #28 April 27, 2009 Thanks everyone for the mostly helpful advice. First I wanna say I don't have dreads because of religious or political believes. Hey I'm an agnostic, fuck the environment, meat loving kind of guy if anything Also cutting them is not an option really, have grown used to them after all this time and the girls usually like them... and I'm a new jumper so I still have a real life outside the DZ I usually have them in a bandana even when not jumping. Will have a look at those hair gloves and see if i can find them cheap anywhere. Rubber band are no good in dreads as somebody already mentioned, they can get eaten up and then they melt and becomes some oily kinds of goo. Very nasty.

You can undread it if you have a lot of time and patience. My guess is that it would talk anything from an hour to half a day per dread depending on how long the person has had them. And the hair would be in need of some serious maintenance after that. But it can be done. Most people however just cut them to an inch or so and comb that out as the hair is not as tightly knotted close to your head.
