It’s almost a game of the talk of partnerships or Rasta and dreadlocks; however translation which gives the dreadlocks (or tangled hair) in Spanish is the “rasta” (name that identifies people who choose religion rastafarí).
Demystifying the myth and understand fashion is not an easy task, but not impossible.
One of the most common mistakes when it comes to talking about the “dreadlocks” is translated as “rasta” or fails to glimpse both the same. If well mean there is no specification on the true origin of dreadlocks there are two translations to be known: One is the knot or braid, and the other refers to a hairstyle aggressive. This hairstyle is one of the banners of people who follow the Rastafarian religion; they began using the dreadlocks from 20 years as a way foreign to reflect their thoughts and religious politicians. Through a biblical prescription of Leviticus 21:5 which reads: “Do not make baldness on your head…” outlawing the rasta not combed or not cut their hair? The use of dreadlocks by their shape and colour (tubes tangled hair colour black) was opposed to limp and blond hair and was used as a form of rejection towards the whites understood as social and political context of the fight Africans who suffered from slavery and exodus. On the other hand if we study the Rastafarian culture that we speak of ganjah (marijuana), his sense naturalist, reggae and its constant struggle against “Babylonian system” (a word that the Rastafarian jargon used to describe a corrupt system based in capitalism and imperialism proposed by Western and Eastern societies, as well as the representation of the bad or the dark), features that are also part of the myth of dreadlock. For the existence of the fashions are always need an icon in for his dreadlocks main reference was the “Rasta” Bob Marley, who through his music reggae announced to the world their culture and fight for peace and social cause. His long hair full of dreadlocks impact and surprised the world, a number of things that he was also attributed to Marley part of myths. Today both Eastern and Western culture using this hairstyle is common to see through the streets and there are several people of different races, different cultures and religions that identify with this hairstyle, keeping in most cases a search toward what is natural and pure and also as a form of condemnation of various social causes. For both within the myths there are several things that rescue unknown:
1_ the grant to the dreadlocks synonymous with dirt is completely untrue since they can wash their hair as normal, although it is advisable in the first few months especially if the hair is originally limp is that washing is less frequently to allow armed them. Therefore, it is not necessary to have dreadlocks to be dirty.
2_ Another of the myths that undoubtedly has to do with an issue of hygiene is also say that the dreadlocks attract lice, which is not true, because on the contrary how knotted and tangled hair hampers adherence to the louse scalp.
3_ everyone who has dreadlocks consume marijuana. False, the Rastafarian claim to know about the ganjah (marijuana) and abuse that gives this herb, hence the use dreadlocks does not mean marijuana and consume much less drugs.
4_ All those who hear reggae used dreadlocks. False, it is considered to reggae in some cases as a form of artistic expression of the Rastafarian however there are those who disagree with that assessment considering the reggae as a musical genre.
Because of aggressive some people still suffer social discrimination by the use of dreadlocks, another reason for which is important to demystify this hairstyle for today on fashion treats dreadlocks part of one of the many options you can choose when to change the look of our hair.
