"I'm a preme lockhead and just wanted to commend you on the site... BUT I do wonder why you call beautiful locks DREADS?? They are in fact no way dreadful - as stated by the white settlers upon receiving our first of many stolen/bamboozled ancestors onto slave ships to this white supremist, imperialistic country (-bell hooks).

actually the term dreadlocks does not start with white settlers. it actually is very religious because rastas grew their dreads to show their praise and  fear of god.  nothing to do with white ppl. white people just took it and ran with it cuz they dont know any better lol. but that was the original meaning of the term dreadlocks,  i know it's not detailed enough, but that;s where it really came from. i love it how people take it the wrong way and try to look down on other ppl for saying dreads or dreadlocks. lol

lord give me strength

the term dreadlocks was created by jamaican whites to malign disenfranchised blacks.  their "dreadful" locks...dreadlocks.
