New day.
New plan.
New community.
I'm not leaving.
You're not leaving.
Welcome to your Dreadlock Online Lounge.
This is a place where we want you to feel comfortable. Tell us about your day. Tell us about what band you are listening to, show you are going to, book you are reading, family and friends, sons and daughters, hope and faith, new things you are trying with your hair, or your brother/sister's hair, or your boyfriend/girlfriends hair...the things that encompass your life.
Our great unifier is dreadlocks. Whether you have them, want them, need them, are scared of them, love them, are curious about them, or just like looking at them. All are welcome. You do not need to have dreadlocks to be a dreadlock enthusiast. If you do have dreadlocks, whether they be natural, palmrolled, ripped and twisted, temporary, synthetic, nappy, smooth, curly, straight, hiding bolts and rocks, big, small, beaver paddled or otherwise - all are welcome.
All are welcome.
I've enlisted the help of
robotparade and blackperson to co-moderate this venue with me. We will not be intruding upon your freeness - we will merely be guides. We'll change the format every now and again, update photos and FAQs, listen to your requests. If we hit any rough patches, we will decide on action TOGETHER, as the Triumvirate of Woman. (grin) Both Robotparade, Blackperson and myself come from wide and varied points of view, but I trust and respect them, as I know you do. Plus, they are both RAD graphic designers - just check out the background (Robotparade) and layout (Blackperson). We are not overlords, or dictators. We are members of this community who can help effect change when needed, field questions when they need to be answered, and join in on the fun ALWAYS. Look at these amazing photos around this message.
Look at how beautiful, open, and free you are.
You are a dread.
Respect.
Respect each other.
Respect all who enter here.
In light of this glorious post, I'd like to leave this message up for one day. I'd like for all who enter to leave a positive comment on what it means for them to be a dread, or dreadlock enthusiast, or dread-curious.
If you have a favorite picture, post it.
Tell us about yourself.
Reintroduce yourself to us.
It would be especially pleasing if you lurk and have never posted before to introduce yourself to us. We don't bite...hard. (grin)
If you have a favorite member, tell us why you love them, or their dreads.
Tell us why you became nappy.
Tell us why you WANT to become nappy.
Tell us about your journey. Tell us what brought you here.
All are welcome.
