No more posts for 15 days except if bad luck strikes..

either bad enough to make me put something up trough my cell

or the bad luck of finding myself bored at an internet cafe or whatever, forcing me to use a computer :)

So See Y All :D

Freaky!

Paking – Dreadz – …

I washed my locks today.. it was a while ago.. about 2 months.. And they seem ok.. They soaked a whole lot of water tough.. :/ Wierd thing was.. They were really tangled @ the roots afterwards :/ Instead of unraveling, they were clinging together like hell! Wich is good ofcourse :) But it was unexpected! Sow they re clean to go to spain :) (Long car trip, Gotta have te curtesy not to bother the people with the chance of smelly hair, as remote as the posibility might be.. I have to admit.. It did smell slightly when rained upon :/) So they re clean :D

Packing.. Its wierd!

Im used packing for festivals or for snowboard trips. 2 different things that require different clothing paterns & stuff.. But now, packing for 2 weeks of spain.. Its something totally new again! Its not new, but Im more used to the other packing patterns :) Also a car trip.. Its different packing :) Im curious what it ll give :) hehe

Now, Back to Packing :)

Dreadlocks

Filed Under (Mods) by Gert on 07-07-2004

Some people consider dreadlocks a body mod..

This is actually something I dont know what to think about.. I have dreadies so I added it to my mod list but.. I still dunno..

The question here is what is a body mod.. Body Modification.. A change to someone s body.. Strictly, this means that surgery, medicins, .. are accepted forms of crucial body mods. Plastic Surgery is indeed a socially accepted body mod.

But how about cutting hair.. Pubic hair, Beards, the normal head hear.. Cutting it is changing it, modifying it.. most of the hair cutting is socially accepted.. so is the dying. However not all the hair posibilities are as socially accepted, mohawks for an instance.. Male pubic shaving.. Dreadlocks!

When I try to find out what a body mod meant to me in the past.. I discover that I usually consider it to be the mods that arent even partly socially accepted, namely piercing, tattooing, extremer mods, .. And I dont really like that defenition. I really dont

So what am I getting to..

I didnt consider the above body mods, but in a way, I was using a narrow minded defenition of body mods. One that means that body mods are always socially wrong.

I would like all sorts of body mods (certainly dreadies so I dont have to cut them to get a job :/) to be socially accepted! So this is a very wrong definition by my book.. So I’ll have to change my definition of body mods :)

Another posibility would be to look at permanence.. hair grows back without traces of being cut or dreaded.. on the other hand, so does tissue.. but not without scarring, you can barely take a piercing out & expect it not to leave even some minor scar.. If I shave my head, noone will see I had dreadlocks.. But in a way, this feels like a wrong defenition too..

So in the end.. I guess I’ll stick with the litteral and very broad defenition.. “A change to ones body” Wich includes hair..

… End of April I got my hair (nice long blonde hair) locked by some friends over a bbq.. It took a while, It hurt, It took a LOT of aftercare (Piercings really dont come close to the first month with dreadies..) But in the end it turned out ok.. I only sporacicly need to check them up for growing together & the roots are locking nicely :) I love my locks :) I love the way they change & stuff.. They re great!

I’ll probably have a piercing ring trough one of them soon :) hehe

They re doing Fine
