only backgroundI'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.
“Dread”ing It
- by Marisa
- September 4, 2009
Once again we are going to try to get Boomer’s hair into dreadlocks. We did this last year around this time and the dreads looked great. Unfortunately, they didn’t stay in. Boomer’s hair is just so soft and pretty.
We’re going to tonight for a consultation to determine what method, if any, would work best and how much they’ll cost. He really wants these for his senior pictures. I’m not sure how my mom and mother-in-law will react to a graduation announcement with Boomer’s hair in dreadlocks but if it’s what he want’s I’m okay with it. In fact, I have no problem with dreadlocks as long as they stay in. If they come out this time, he’s on his own if he wants to try again.
Here’s a picture of his dreads last year. His hair is much longer now, down his back when it’s wet, so I’m sure it will look different this time.

Welcome back I’ve missed you..

High school is the time to try crazy haircuts and to be crazy. There will be no other time for dreadlocks. Enjoy!
Maybe you could google how to get started on the dreads. I have friends with hair about that same texture and they have some quite thick dreads. Not braids, but chunky dreads!
Thanks, Dorothy! I’ve missed you, too.
I had dreads at school… just to be different!
