African American men and women have both joined in the cultural outbreak of dreadlocks. In the Nappy be Happy salons all over the United States dreadlocks are being taught or associated with an inner journey that one takes in the process of locking their hair (growing dreadlocks). It is taught that patients is the key to growing dreadlocks. It is a journey of the mind, soul and spirituality. It spiritual pattern is aligned with the Rastafarian Religion. People that do not understand the process sometimes mock the dreadlock style. The make comments of the cleanliness of the locked hair. It is also a Rastafarian belief in how the hair is to be maintained. It goes back to bible teachings on cleanliness.
