## Description

Presents portraits of dread-heads from every walk of life and includes a brief history of this hairstyle

Review: An incredible pictorial of the many facets of dreadlocks! - My loctician had this book on her coffee table during my last visit and I fell in love with my locks all over again. The book opens with an introduction by Alice Walker that recaps her first encounter with locks and her subsequent adoption of the style. Through this introduction, Walker addresses some of the common misconceptions about locks. "Dreads" continues with a historical perspective of locks and their political, religious and fashion roots. This is a great coffee table item. Not only is the book a great validation of the beauty and uniqueness of locks but it is also an excellent way to inform people of the facts about locks. I wish I had a copy of the book at the office when I started the locking process three years ago! Highly Recommended!
Review: Universal Dreads - Dreads is a masterful work of superior photography accompanied by explanations of what dreadlocked hair means to each of the individuals included in the book. This book is a must-have for any true dreadlock enthusiast and an excellent conversation piece for a salon or living room coffee table. I was pleasantly surprised to see that desertcart actually carried brand new copies because the book was actually out of circulation for a while. Maybe with the re-emergence and popularity of dreadlocked hair the publishers decided to crank up the presses once again. Whatever the reason, I strongly suggest that you buy this book before it's no longer available. Dreads is a true work of art and offers unique perspectives that extend to many different continents and ethnicities.

*by J***U on March 3, 2009*

Love ths book. I use to own a hard copy and excellent conversation piece. My uncle borrowed it and I decided to get a new copy so that he can keep the one I lend him. The paperback is just as good. You just need to be careful if a child is looking through the book. I Would recommmend to anyone that wishes to see the beauty of natural dreads of people throughout the world.
