Dreads are heavy matted coils of hair which form by themselves, eventually fusing together to form a single dread. Kinda like hybrid Nikes. This is possible in all hair types if the hair is allowed to grow naturally without combing or using conditioner for a long period of time. However, they can also be intentionally formed as well through backcombing the hair into dreadlocks (or more commonly in the Americas and West-Indies by twisting).
There are many reasons among various cultures for wearing locks. Locks can be an expression of deep religious or spiritual convictions, a manifestation of ethnic pride, a political statement, or be simply a fashion preference.
Dreadlocks are associated most closely with the Rastafari movement, but people from many groups in history have worn them, including the Hindu Shiva worshippers of India, wealthy members of ancient Egyptian society, pre-Christian European peoples and some superstar DJ’s.
