Figured I'd try to contribute around here a little (considering the amount of lurking I've done :/) and since most people I've spoke with tend to hate this side of the dread process (after all, it DOES keep MANY from starting/continuing on with dreads) I thought it may be of service (inspiration maybe?) to some to show how you wear em at work I work in the parts department of a car dealership and deal with all walks of life on a daily basis and have yet to receive any negative feedback.. Although they may just be scared of me :/ PS- shout out to alethionaut for the inspiration for the thread (anti bird poop bag Tam!)!  |

Great idea for a thread! I count myself lucky that the school where I work is SUPER open minded about dreads.......I would love to see more pics of great ways to wear 'em, especially when dealing with a huge mix of customers like in the customer service field!

I usually contain them in a bun or braid, but I am considering a trim, so that may not be possible much longer.
Actually, if I ever am so lucky as to not have look neat at work I would love to start a completely natural set. Had to crochet this time 'round.

Mine are always tied up at wrk with a simple band. No mess no fuss - don't have to be massively presentable unless I'm public facing

Luckyyyyyy! You have a cool job though... I think I'm gonna let em hang around here until someone says something..being as how mine are youngsters I don't really like tying them up. Nobody really cares around here until the dealership owner starts walking around but I'm a PRO at avoiding him lol

I'm thinking people around here adhere to the old adage "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" because I haven't caught much slack about em as of yet... Though I have so much loose hair it's kinda tough to tell from afar
