DeafDreadlocks: FAQ & Myths

In this vlog, Raychelle discusses two different types of dreadlocks, the curly-natural way and the straight-artifical way. She had a dreadperm, done by Hair Police in Minneapolis (www.hairpolice.com). She also disputes some nasty and horrendous myths about people with dreds!

Thank you for taking the time in explaining all about dreadlocks. I'll admit that I did have a 'double-take' when I saw you at Gallaudet last October. I had to really look at your face to make sure it was really you! :)

FWIW, I think dreads suits you just fine!

Thanks for sharing and really think that your cat is beautiful. My neice got a deaf dog and she told me that there is a special collar for deaf dog. The collar will vibrate when u call. I don't know if they can do for cat. Make more video of your cat especially when she is awake.

Oh yes, Gallaudet needs to check out www.deafpolice.com ha!

As for dreadlocks, I've been fooled by a myth until I read your vlog. Grr!

Years ago I was interested to get dreadlocks for my hair. I asked someone what happens when I want to get rid of it, I was told I have to shave my hair off. That was enough not to proceed with it LOL
