14. What's the dreadlock journey? It's not just having radical hair, but more about going through an inner transformation just as powerful as the loc'ing process itself.
Why do we let society tell us what we should or should not do with our hair? This is our lifestyle and our choice to do with our hair as we want. Our hair can be an element of self-expression, and it's such a beautiful way to express ourselves as unique individuals.
Dreadlocks are not just for "pot-smoking hippies," contrary to popular belief. There's a story and a journey behind every head of loc'ed hair.
In today's episode, we discuss:
- Deciding to get dreadlocks
- What the loc'ing process is actually like
- The different stages of dreadlocks
- How spirituality is intertwined throughout my process
- Surfing, dreadlocks and salt water
- Misconceptions around cultural appropriation
- Giving ourselves permission to express ourselves
...and more!
