Dreadlocks also seem to be a particularly difficult kind of hair styling to institute and keep properly maintained, being very tedious to create, and subject to all sorts of soiling and hygienic problems, especially with infestations or underlying skin conditions.
Just about impossible to brush out before retiring for the night.
Let’s admit it, dreadlocks are just filthy. You can’t wash them without destroying the effect.
I’ve seen some that look like they’re caked with mud.
