We have to avoid regret here. I know it is totally doable. I used to have some hairdressers in Southend ( I was nothing to do with them but my 'fashion' mate drew me close'. A pro will give you the cut. New age, styled rock into dreads out back. You just then have to remember how to do it yourself with clippers cheap. What I picture is so cool, but needs a little expert eye. That's what stops me. I'd mess it up. I might beat you to it by summer. ( I'm all up for a fresh set anyhow). Anyway enough of that. You still look like the most fantastic guy in the world. But evolution is fun.

james, changing is fun indeed anyway, when I had short haircut, my mum always did it for me, she's still been doing it for my father for dozen of years xD

Thanks tjrotino86 Posted this to Facebum earlier. The annoying thing is, I don't think I'll be able to tie them back like that for much longer, due to the length.... in order to stop the ends from flapping around above my head, I have to tie the main "body" of it lower down and it's already touching my neck. I do like how it looks like I have face hugger on the wrong way though ha.

Ha, I don't think I have seen your timeline before! They look terrific now, but I can imagine the length becoming impractical.
Owww, and those short lil babydreads looked so adorable!

I haven't really found any creative ways to tie mine back.i can tie them with two dreads back into a pony tail but always wonder if that stress on the dreads doing the holding would cause damage.

overusing just two the same dreads may cause weakening them after some time... maybe You have to wait to get them longer to find more creative ways to tie them up I think mine are not long enough to play more with them

Yeah i could rotate between more than actually just two. But my congo usually jumps out since he is a biggen

well, You can also use more to tie like 2-3 from each side instead of one, also should work out

Thanks HippyFish. People often say I should gradient the colour change but I just prefer it harsh lol. Right, so, you all know that I decided to chop half the length off recently... this was partly because I began to feel like longer dreads didn't suit me so well but also because the bottom 4-5 inches of most dreads were really thinning and weakening, since they've been through so many bleaches. And here are some piccies! It's kind of refreshing in a way I hadn't imagined.... it's like having a new set, almost.
