#1 dreads are dirty. Always have been, always will be. They are just long knots of matted hair. No matter how much you wash them they realy aren't ever "clean". Clean things don't smell like a wet dog.
#2 If some one thinks it will be a problem getting a job because they have long smelly ropes of hair then maybe they should cut them. If you know it will be a problem ahead of time, why not fix the problem. #3 I hope he did not get the job because if he lacks the common sense to look presentable , well, he probably lacks common sense in other areas as well.

Bunk, after six weeks without shampoo your hair *will* clean itself, dreads or no. Truth

Weird, I'm on near daily occassion surrounded by dread-locked people and none of them stink. I know this well, since I quit smoking in August I can and do smell like I have never before.
My good friend has long red dreaded hair and he simply does not stink. He showers and cleans his hair nearly everyday every day or so. Know him for years, worked with him everyday, and he has never once stank. My previous boss had long dreads and she usually smelled great, if anything noticable from a typical distance. People with poor hygiene can stink, but this has nothing to do with hair style. [ 12-11-2006, 10:08 PM: Message edited by: Chewbacca ]

Of course, agreed. The thing is it is a hairstyle that comes with work. Some are willing to do the work, and clean and rebraid it properly and others are not but still want the look.

Chewbacca, congrats to you [img]smile.gif[/img] I quit smoking as well in August, and know what you mean regarding sense of smell.

In answer to my timed question is this:
No, the guy did not get the job, but it was not because of his hair, because they agreed that wearing a hair net or tying it back was just fine. Then came the next level of the interview from across the counter. He was asked if he lived on campus, and he said no, but he could get a ride every day from a friend. (bad mark #1...not self-reliant). He then volunteered that he had taken a semester or two before. (bad mark #2 & 3...was it 1 or 2 semesters? Why not be accurate? Besides that, why did he not finish what he started? This shows he's a quitter). With 3 marks against him that had nothing to do with the hair, he lost his chance.
