Hey you! Yeah, you with the dreadlock fountain sprouting from your head. Guess what, Medusa? You’re not cool or interesting or indie. You’re dirty. With dreads, you look like Sideshow Bob, not Bob Marley. Cut that shit off and stop co-opting someone else’s heritage and style.
Note: While I’m not crazy about dreads on any Caucasian, it’s the dudes I am most annoyed at.

Hallelujah! I've been waiting for you to punch these douchebags for months. I've been punching them internally for years.
Dreads on anyone are nasty! How do they keep them clean? They don't, I bet.
Please call them "locs". Thank you for the "stop co-opting someone else's heritage and style.
Cathi, they are kept very clean for the simple fact we don't require styling products. Regular washing with a gentle soap and moisturizing with either coconut or shea nut oil is all that is needed.
Peace,

White boys sporting "locs" is code for "I hate my parents".
Spying the d(r)ead hair sporting rebels sometimes brings a contemplative look while I wonder if the parent's transgression warrants or negates the adopted dirty hair habit.
LOL -- Medusa. Awesome.
What the hell was he thinking? That's what I say. He does look like a douchebag. Fix your hair right. I feel for the girlfriend if he has one.
how about the guy on FUll THrottle Saloon - he is old enough to know better, but apparently doesn't.
I can hear it now "Duuude, you're on this blog about face punching. That's rad!"
AWESOME!
to everyone here calling him a douche bag or being negative about whites with locs, seriously, shut up!for your information, dreadlocks are NOT a "black" thing! nor are they primarily Jamaican, it just so happens that they are the ones who adopted the style as a religious sign of spirituality, its a fact that locs have been around for thousands of years and were first worn by middle eastern people. also many STRAIGHT HAIRED Asians wear this hairstyle, mad props to the guy in this picture, it most likely took him a few years to do this, BTW i am a black Rastafarian...
Locks are much more then just a hairstyle!
Growing them takes years and requires alot of patience and commitment. A weak person can never grow strong dreads. Most people dont understand this!
I have been growing my dreads for 3 years and will never cut them off!
Haters only makes me stronger.
I'm not trying to be cool or look like Bob Marley or whatever, I just dont want to look like a dildo like 99% of the white guys out there. So go ahead, punch me in the head. I'm much stronger then you anyway!!!
Oh btw, I'm a white guy! 8D
I'm surprised you said "stop co-opting someone else’s heritage and style." Dreadlocks have been around the time of Christ.
Get your shit straight bro. I'm white with dreads. There are photos from the 1900s with Native Americans with dreads. Ignorant people I swear.
also, heres a tidbit: for over 5000 years the Sadhus of india have grown dreadlocks in accordance with their beliefs/vows. and if you look at any picture, they make most "black" or "white" people with locs look like short haired newbies.
whites derived rock and roll from the black americans, but NOBODY can claim ownership of locs. know your history and/or get over yer white centered anger.
peace.
Lol it's funny that when all the well-informed intellectuals had their say, all the ignorant cunts stopped talking.
Yeah if you want dreads go for it... its not a race thing. I see it as a sign of difference from the socially "accepted" look. F#ck being the same!! Im only six months in on mine and i love em... so do the bitches. So f#ck the haters! And the racism towards white dudes with em. Btw im white, and train in MMA. So id prolly just send someone hatin on mine to the E.R. Peace
I am caucasian and female, and I have dreads, and am quite baffled over the ignorance of this rant.
Most likely, you are not racist, but to assume that Dreads are single cultural is quite narrow minded.
Although dreadlocks are associated most closely with the Rastafari movement, people from many ethnic groups in history before them have worn dreadlocks, including many ancient Semitic and Indo-Aryan peoples of the Near East and Asia Minor, Sadhus of Nepal, India and the Sufi Rafaees, the Māori people of New Zealand, the Maasai and the Oromo of East Africa, and the Sufi malangs and fakirs of Pakistan, and medieval Irish Warriors.
In fact, even the Norsemen are known to have worn their hair matted in dreads.
Yes, they are douchebags and deserve a VERY hard punch to the face. Every time I see one of these pud whacks all I can think is 'please don't breed'.
Feel free to go ahead and try haha, you guys are pathetic. Ill punch you back.
i think its funny that everyone only focuses on the fashion side of dreads....
dreadlocks are not a racial thing even though they were made popular by the rastas.. all cultures thru out history have had dreads...
dreads are a physical expression of a spiritual journey... im a white dude , and i started my dreads from a bald head when i became a vegan....
who cares about fashion... dreads are deeper than that!! and all the black folks pissed about white dudes rocking dread are actually missed the entire point of having dreads!
i dont care what u think... im on my own journey, and that in its self should demand respect!
another white guy with locs here. a lot of you people are ignorant. my dreads are clean and kept up. not everyone is as dirty as you. just wanted to give props for the people standing up for freedom in any form and hey next time you see me say something instead of being a scared, close minded, dumbfuck
I agree with the journey one is on that creates the desire to lock up their hair. The fact that a person like myself one day woke up a made the plan to grow long hair for the first time, then desire to loc them out after two years of growth was unforeseen. My journey unlike, the creator of this site or others whom agree with you are locked up in a soul that Could Never and Would Never do such a thing to your hair. The results, you the creator are a Living soul holding hate, discrimination, hurt, jealousy, and will live like this forever. Your journey has never started because you hold yourself back from all the things that are possible for you. Unlike locking your hair, You could never and would never! Whats the big deal!!!! Your soul is the only issue here, "I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU" peace from a free soul!!!!
Wow. You're extremely ignorant aren't you? I don't think people like you need a blog. Seriously. Anyone who has had long hair knows that if you don't come it that dreadlocks will result. Always has been so and will always be so. it's the nature of the matter. You need a massive reality check. You must be living a life of pure vanity and judgement. Learn about your history. Then you'll know where you're really coming from.
Peace, Love, Truth.
By washing them? ;)
