I colored my dreads

It's copper on top. And Blue, Green & purple on the bottom two rows in the back. What y'all think?

2025/7/30 Edited to

... Read moreColoring dreadlocks is a creative way to express personal style and add vibrancy to your hair. When choosing colors like copper on the top combined with blue, green, and purple hues on the bottom rows, it's important to consider the hair's porosity and texture to achieve the best results. Starting with clean, dry dreads, the use of high-quality hair dyes designed for dreadlocks can help ensure even color penetration without damaging the hair. Copper tones bring warmth and richness, complementing cooler shades like blue, green, and purple for a dynamic and eye-catching palette. To maintain these colors, regular moisturizing treatments are recommended since colored dreads can become dry. Using sulfate-free shampoos designed for colored hair helps preserve the vibrancy of your dyes. In addition, protecting colored dreads from sun exposure and chlorine is crucial, as these can fade the pigments prematurely. Wearing a hat in the sun and rinsing thoroughly after swimming can prolong the brilliance of your colors. If you’re unsure about dyeing your dreads at home, consulting a professional stylist who specializes in dreadlocks can provide personalized advice and ensure your dreads remain healthy throughout the coloring process. Ultimately, combining copper with blue, green, and purple shades adds a bold, multidimensional look to your dreadlocks while reflecting your unique personality and flair.

What I Wanted Vs What I Got!
I fell in love with this ladies pic color! I wanted it badly. However, as you can see my hair turned out nicely but not the purplish red I desired. I told my loctician the girls hair was a fuschia red & she told me it was crimson! 🤦🏾‍♀️ In ok with the color now. Yet my goal was let quite reache

So the fun has begun and I’m already impressed, nervous, anxious, etc. On 6/3/24 I asked a staff to could my dreads. I have 107 to take down. The goal is to do 7 today. Then 10 everyday afterwards. That would put me at a completion date of 6/14/24. It’s a lot of work so I doubt

Locs vs. Dreads ✨ Why the divide?
I’ve been seeing this debate pop up again: people saying “locs” and “dreads” are not the same. So let’s break that down. The word dreadlocks is the origin. Over time, some of us started saying locs instead to detach from the word “dread” and the negative history tied to it. I get that. But no
