Interesting read

But I still find ‘dread- dreadful’ to be an English word with negative connotations. Nothing dreadful can be synonymous to supremacy or an ideal.

I don’t know what languages are spoken in Jamaica but it would be inventive if they could come up with a new positive concept for this hairstyle.

Lifestyle or hairstyle:
Whichever the case may be, whether it’s free form or cultivated; I think none should be aligned to a derogatory concept of ‘dread…’

In conclusion, for me as a Black woman embarking on spiritual journey, embracing my full identity, and having transitioned from wigs & weaves to locks; I would like a term that embraces the hair or hairstyle as opposed to the term dreadlocks.
