BWaahahahahaha I love you to man

 

[braves01]

Everyone should be bald.

No.

 

[TatteredHat]

Nobody should have dreadlocks.

 

[Sunset Samurai]

Those are braids

 

[jesu]

Nobody should have dreadlocks.

What about Rastafarians?

What about Rastafarians?

They don't really have the choice.

 

[ScepticMatt]

I don't like dreads on anyone. People might look good despite dreads, not because of them.
White or black makes no difference.

IMO of course.

 

[John Caboose]

Honestly dreads just look gross on everyone.

 

[Arkeband]

Mega64's Garrett has acceptable dreads.

 

[LyleLanley]

a soap dodging white girl MAY pull it off if 'hippie chick' is the whole image shes going for. need to be pretty hot to not just appear like a gross dirty person though

Even then they'd almost certainly look better with another hair style.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Cosima on Orphan Black.

yoooooo

i need to start watching orphan black

 

[fernoca]

Like with everything, varies and depends by person.

Some rock it and look great with them; others...not as much. But is their hair, so they can do whatever they want with it.

Spoiler

Like with fedoras, and yet many here use them.

Corey Taylor:

it were his real dreads at somepoint:

 

[poppabk]

Certainly not on a guy and lol at someone thinking Henrik Larson isn't black.

His skin tone is pretty much white though. Or are people saying that it's not the white skin but the persons race that makes dreadlocks not work?

 

[bigDdestruction]

This thread reminded of the inbetweeners movie where Will owns the shit out of the white guy with dreads

"Oh, fuck off, Ben! You don't believe in 'song lines' any more than I do. It's just a way for you to seem interesting to girls because deep down you know you're boring and pretentious like your stupid fucking dreadlocks. Which, by the way, always look embarrassing on white people. They're not counter cultural, they actually scream 'Oh, I've got a trust fund!' so get a normal haircut, you unbearable prick."

how has no one posted a picture of the weeknd yet

 

[Numb]

Always think Island jewel when white people dreads are brought up

 

[Ran rp]

Thread title is wrong. It should say "white people on dreadlocks".

lol

 

[Puruzi]

hell no

 

[Shabadoo69]

not everyone can pull it off. I like when girls have them obviously not all look good but when they do its hot.

 

[Kama_1082]

 

[d00d3n]

I am shocked that this is a page 3 response.

 

[shadowkat]

Dreads are like any other hairstyle/colour - it won't suit everyone.

 

[Angelus Errare]

That shit on his head is a living entity.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

Some people are totally confusing braids on white people with dreads on white people.

This looks phenomenal though:

Good fuckin god... she is out of bounds gorgeous. Lawd.

 

[Shuggananas]

Aw hell no

 

[Dishy]

this german youtuber pulls it off quite well

[Faynwulf]

Neither anyone else in Star Wars.

Okay.



BTT: Dreadlocks look bad on everyone. And more often then not they smell really unpleasant.

 

[double jump]

That shit on his head is a living entity.

It's the puppet master pulling Abel's strings.

 

[Takuan]

Don't like them. In instances where women look good with them they'd look even better with another look.

 

[PrivateWHudson]

Don't like them. In instances where women look good with them they'd look even better with another look.

Yep. This thread is more about "Is he/she hot enough for me to ignore the dreads".

Cornrows/Braids on the other hand:

 

[Mostmanlyman]

Mega64's Garrett has acceptable dreads.

Yep.

 

[Alex Stroud]

Terrible hairstyle. Why would you want to look like you haven't showered in two years.

 

[Strangelove77]

No one should have dreadlocks. Despite how clean they might actually be, they always look dirty to me.
But who gives a shit what I think. I'm the last person to dictate what fashion is acceptable or not. I'm an always t-shirt and jeans guy. Very boring.

 

[Ran rp]

what makes braids ok but dreadlocks dirty?

edit: on black folks. or anyone who's hair naturally locs?

The dreadlocks = dirty mindset doesn't seem to be as prevalent among black people as it is among anyone else.

 

[Byakuya769]

It's hair.

.

It's hair, don't care.

 

[Tiops]

To me, if someone looks good on dreadlocks, they would look better with a decent hairstyle. And that's for any race.

 

[Kisaya]

No.

The funny thing is you know there are people with "acceptable" hair that's as filthy and stank as any hypothetical dreads

 

[Regulus Tera]

Dreadlocks on anyone look awful.

 

[jesu]

Dreadlocks on anyone look awful.

Rasta's am cry

eorge and his braids too....

 

[royalan]

The funny thing is you know there are people with "acceptable" hair that's as filthy and stank as any hypothetical dreads

Or the fact that most people with well-kept dreads have to put more care and grooming into their hair than most of those "decent" hairstyles.
