A Jamaican friend of mine has locs and we were talking one day, and someone walked by us, and was like man, you girls have really nice dreads...
I didn't say anything, but she asked the person kindly to not refer to them as dreads, 'cause that makes it sound negative...as if it's something nasty, or dreadful...I never thought of it like that before, so I'm careful to refer to it as locs whenever I talk to people, because I don't know who dislikes the term dreads or dreadlocks...it doesn't really bother me personally though when I hear people say dreads. |
