That is SO bad for your hair. (Mom's been a hairdresser for 30 years, believe me when I say this.)

I know, but I only want to do it for a day. 

Sort of like faux dreads

what I'd do then is twist it up with some gel, your hair is naturally curly, you don't want to turn it into an afro by accident. lol

lol when I was a baby up until one or two years old my hair would only grow out, and not down, so I had a little white girl fro :] 

awww lol but i bet it was soft? You don't want to turn it all crinkly though.

I do, too. I've been following Roxie's dreading journey, and I love what she has to say about it. (sayhedgehog) I love the way it looks, the way it feels, what it represents. Hair schmair, it grows back.

I would never do it for real. I don't think, anyway. I like playing around with my hair too much. =/

I believe a wig splurge is in order?

oh man I love wigs. 

Oh baby, my cousin's boyfriend has dreads and he likes them, but I dunno that you'd like them if you like to change up your hair a lot.

I should clarify that by "temporarily dread" I meant like "faux dread" . . . where my hair has the appearance of dreadlocks but are not really dreads.

I see, I see. Well then, that sounds like fun :]

God NO! No dreads young lady! You're already hippie enough as it is =P lol. But seriously you already have curly hair what MORE do you want BESIDES me lol =P

lol actually if I go for days without combing/brushing my hair, my hair starts to naturally dread itself. I once had to cut off a lot of my hair because I let it go for too long, when I was 16. lol. 

see these are reasons why I know you shouldn't do this -huggles- I wonder what straight hair looks on you actually @_@

I've only tried to straighten my hair a few times in my life, and none of them were very successful. 

oh wow. Either other way you're damn sexy with curly hair I promise you that baby and not many people can pull it off. So sure it's a gift and a curse but just remember those who truly adore you for who you are. I love the way you look now =P just no dreads you're too good for that.

"just no dreads you're too good for that."
What the hell does that mean?
I love dreadlocks; I admire people who can pull them off.

it means you don't have to because either other way you already look great. No offense to people who have them. It's extremely hard to pull off and look good with them you know. Trust me for a person whose family is from Jamaica. ^_^ but if it makes you happy Steeni go ahead love. It wasn't like you were going to listen to me anyways =P

lol I hardly do anything wondering if people are going to think I look great or not.
