Dreads or also called Dreadlocks are strands of matted / felted hair.
A big prejudice about Dreads is that they are dirty, that it is unwashed hair and that they stink.
Perhaps this was the case in the old days, when no comb or brush had been invented yet. When Dreads appeared in many different cultures because the hair simply was not combed and therefore tangled together.
Today we see Dreads not only as a lifestyle, but also as a hairstyle. A hairstyle that requires care if you want to have beautiful, neat Dreads.
And there are a lot of products on the market today that can wash, care for and touch up Dreadlocks. The prejudice about dirty Dreads is outdated.
