... too stop Raul from 'DreadLocking' ??? ...
Well, if Raul had THAT type of hair, he might not do it, hehe...
But yeah, I am 100% whole with the decidion, and I can't WAIT for saturday to get it done! ;)
And btw, they actually DO offer that Keratine treatment Dave was talking about at the same Afro salon I will be doing my dreadlocks, so who knows, maybe one day I WILL end up with perfectly straight ,smooth and frizzfree hair ;)
my message to you is - you have options - I allow you to CHANGE YOUR MIND - look @ the new bass-player of 'Metallica': ( recruited 2002: approx. ) = this is you in the future = ALL I'm saying is you have so much to work with = list = youth
colour
texture
fullness
gloss ... in a nut-shell = you can be 'Yonz' !!! = exactly - maybe a slightly smoother version - I defy anyone to prove me wrong ...
Not quite of mexican decent, even though my name might suggest otherwise ;) But yeah, I love the hair on the dude, thick, straight, dark... lovely :)
Now, I really hope I am not breaking any rules here, as I honestly do not mean to advertise another site, but check this timeline out... if these ain't absolutely BEAUTIFUL, I don't know what is, buddy! :)
I actually REALLY love the way they get past the 3 year mark, when the loose hair kinda pops out and they get more of that wild, lion's mane look.... freaking gorgeous locks!

Again, no intention on advertising for another site. People there ain't even that nice and welcoming, and I don't really write there that much. Just want to show an example of a dreadlock timeline :) Hope it's all good, moderators!
It's kind of funny how all three had the best hair of any members of the band. I'd say Trujillo's is the best of the three though. He rocks it loose and also in those really cool braids he sometimes wears. I thought Cliff had a cool look with the center part and it all hanging down, a very hippie-looking style.
I give Kirk credit for regrowing his after the 90s cut. He's lost a lot of hair but it has a strong wave pattern that makes up for a lot of it.
Hi Jason,
I do miss Cliff Burton's bass playing. What a loss. Also I always liked Dave Mustaine and his hair. Check this out.
Ted
Hi Ted,
Yeah, Dave had great hair as an early member of Metallica and has pretty much kept it through the years. I love his guitar playing but can't stand his voice (and his politics!)
Jason
Hi Jason,
Yes Dave's voice is something else! Not sure about his politics. I will have to check that out! His guitar playing is superb I would have to agree! Rock on my friend!
Ted
Been said several time sin the past that I look like him, both look wise and hair wise.
Hope it looks great for ya Raul!
Hey Raul ! They really offer that keratine treatment? What did they mentioned to you about it ?
Does the Keratine treatment necessarily make your hair straight(er)? If not, then I could be bothered to try it out.
It makes it look straighter and frizz-free .
Hi CEM,
Yes, that dude has an awesome mane and would inspire any guy who's into longhair like we all are.I too agree with you about Raul but he apparently has made up his mind and would hope he followed the two week rule on this conversion.Well next Saturday will be interesting to see and hope all goes well for him and that he is happy with the results.Otherwise it'll go down as a day that will live in infamy so to speak.Cheers my friend:)

Mark, guys... I can't stress this enough.
We all have different ways of seeing, loving and appreciating hair textures, and while I don't necessarily think all pictures put here are to my taste as well, I really make it a thumb of rule for myself to have a positive attitude, and appreciate the fact that someone is proud of their hair and appearance, no matter how it relates to my definions of aethetics.
In other words... live and let live, please.
Thank you.
Hi Raul,
I shall live and let live my friend! Be happy with your hair and your life! Just please make sure to keep us updated on your progress!
Ted
Yes I hope he does follow the two week rule, but in the long
run it should be noted that it is his hair, and despite what
others think he has the right to do with his hair as he wants.
There are those on this board who hate dreadlocks, personally
I find butt length dreadlocks awesome. I'd never do it to
my hair but I find them awesome none the less.
And in recent years i've seen alot of men and women with dreadloks that are waist length or longer.
And since this is a board dedicated to long hair on men we
should be supportive of men want their hair long whether
it is straight hair, curly hair, various lengths,
dreadlocked, or some type of undercut. There are a number
of styles I would not do to my hair but I fully support any
man who wants to grow his hair long in a particular style.
After all when I started growing my hair long in 1964 and
spent many years butting heads with school authorities I
was battling for the right to grow my hair long. Now all these
years later my hair is still long, and other men have the right
to grow their hair long in whatever style they choose.
Well I do agree with what you are saying as it ultimately is up to the individual what style they prefer to wear their own hair in.I mean we've had past members here who decided to go back to a short haircut so if that is what pleases them then that's fine.At least they gave longhair a shot before going back and I trust followed the two week rule.I really have nothing against dreadlocks other that to me its sort of an irreversible conversion even though some said they can be undone.Some people can pull the look off while other not so much. Personally I don't feel they'd ever work for me and I wouldn't want to take the chance anyway.I've invested too much with my hair to change what I already enjoy:)Anyway for anyone who wants dreads,go for it if you have that burning desire.I am looking forward to seeing the new Raul next Saturday:)Cheers
Mârk
agreed in full - my support for Raul is unconditional = I was testing his resolve & realize now it is true - there is no right or wrong in the long hair journey: ( or for any hair journey, for that matter ) - as long as the individual is happy - it can't hurt to throw a cat amongst the pigeons now & then - hey cheers CEM :))
*this is for Raul*
Hey "CEM"
Dreadlocks open up an entirely and fantastic new world for any guy that would like to grow his hair out long. Long hair can be just the coolest thing when worn in a variety of different styles. I myself am very sorry that this is one hairstyle in my life that I missed out on. Oh well, I have known many and continue on in change as life moves so swiftly along.
Hope all has been well with you "CEM" and always a pleasure for me to visit the MLHH every now and then when I get a chance. All the best and take care! :-)

Awesome, messy, wild, beautiful locks, Justin! Love 'em!
Yes..........really great Raul. And just look at these dynamite killer gorgeous dreads. OMG, what a completely sensational absolutely stunning fabulous long hair look!
Justin~
Even though I'm not a big fan of Dreadlocks, here is someone whose Dreadlocks I adore. The guitarist of the epic, kick ass, amazing band Battlelore; Jussi Raution.
Another one of him.
Hi Michail,
This guy looks badass! Right now I am seeing Raul with these dreadlocks! Man Raul! You are going to look great with dreads my friend!
Ted
...a mane that is has too short a terminal length and allows the wearer to have extra long hair to the floor,
no more frizzy hair problems or bad hair days,
And makes a great fly swatter!
Raul do what you want to do as it is your hair.
Cheers,
Duncan
OMG, I can't stop laughing over this one -- the imagery is just too funny!!!!
Thanks for making my day, Duncan, I love it!

Very nice post Duncan! Rock on Raul!
