Dreadlocks: not a look everyone can pull off. But I'm sure your are among those who can, Kay. (Obviously your blog photo was taken some time ago...? :-)
LOL! Did you spew your coffee while coming up with that very kind response?? Oh, so funny. I was playing with words... Sorry. Yes, those who pull off the dreadlocks well are gorgeous people. I am not one of them. The hair must be just so. I DO want cornrows, but I need to have patience and let my hair grow long enough! Thanks for lighting my day, Brian! ~Kay

ReplyDeleteYeah, too many who attempt the look just wind-up looking like they need a good shampoo and a comb.
ReplyDeleteCornrows can be very beautiful.
