To dread or not to dread

A couple of weeks ago, we had the idea that dreads would be fun for the girls. We were thinking that Sara would be more likely to wear them, but as it turns out, Ali is the dreadhead. What's the appeal, you ask? Well, as Ali says, "I never have to brush my hair again!"

Check out the slideshow of Ali's dreadin'. The last couple of shots are from this morning, and her dreads are a couple of weeks old. The others are of day one.

We did Sara's hair on the same day and she had them about a week before deciding that she didn't want them anymore. I thought I would have to cut them out, but with lots of shampoo and conditioner, and patience with a comb, they came out easily.
