 I'm considering cutting my dreads off.
Not for the usual "I need a change", oh no.
But my locs have been going sour for awhile
I've been trying to coerce them a better way
I think I fucked up with how I dreaded them.
Now, down the middle of my head
There is like...a "balding spot", so to speak
One of my front dreads is prepped to fall off
It's holding on

Ever since I read this, I've now considered this route. It wouldn't even have to be all of them; just the top of my head.

I don't want them gone, but it's just the top of my head is really starting to irk me. if some day over the next year I can afford to, I'd even go to Lish to get em fixed. but where I live, I don't know if there's anyone that could truly undo my hair, then part it, then redread it to where I'd like it. so if I can't get it done for awhile, I would like to just have free hair for a time. get it braided, maybe even. I don't know; I don't care for the pulling and the strain :(

Yeah, just re-do the top where the thinning is. Your dreads are awesome - don't cut them off!
