I don't know about the mullet-dreads but Becca and I saw a really serious mono-dread at starscape last year, I think she has a pic of it hopefully she sees this and posts.

I want dreads so bad! Did you do it yourself or what? I seriously thought about dreading my hair when it was long, but I ended up cutting it all off in a bright pink pixie cut instead. I'm still seriously considering dreading, but my hair probably still isn't long enough and I've read that it takes a lot of time, patience, and devotion for the dreads to mature, and that they look like total crap when they're first starting out. Kudos to you for actually doing it! I'm jealous!
Oh and, have you ever dealt with profiling because of them? I'll be at 'Roo this year.
i have super kinky/curly long hair, and when i am feeling dready i just wash it but skip the conditioner and combing and it starts to dread right up in a day or two. splits off into nice sections (not too thick, not too thin) all by itself with no coaxing other than putting it into a bun when it gets in my face. i usually go with it for a week, maybe two, before i star to feel like if i don't brush it out soon i am going to have to commit to the dreads full on, so i'll spend a good half an hour (and half a bottle of conditioner!) combing out all my knotties in the shower..... and then end u repeating the cycle a few weeks or a month later.
hehe, i think i'm a part time dready! ;-)
"doing" my hair when its regular curly involves brushing it wet and then using leave in conditioner and gel or mousse or something to fight frizz, which sounds like a pain in the booty at bonnaroo so i will probably have it in two braids to start out when i get there and i don't plan on brushing it at all while i am there. should be naturally dready by friday afternoon. yay. maybe this will be the time i commit... i'll keep my roo dreads as a souvenir! ;-)
and to whoever said dreds are gross tat the beginning of this thread: dreads aren't gross, PEOPLE are gross, and sometimes gross people don't wash their hair/dreads. normal not gross people have smellpretty happy ungross dreads. :-p
g n o s s o s - i haven't yet dealt with any profiling due to my hair, but i'm sure it'll happen at some point. sometimes i get weird looks, but most of the time, people just want to ask questions about them or tell me they like them.
flgypsymama - keep your roo dreads! my hair took forever to lock up, i'm jealous your hair is made for it. and crunchies for understanding that little fact about people being gross, not dreads.
pjhippie - my dreads will say hello to your dreads at roo.
