Day 20 of 25 Days of Blogmas celebrating the Best Of The Year #BOTY2018
What do I know fashion and style trends…….
I am Jon Snow. I know nothing
I would guess its something to do with my hair.
The natural hair trend seems to be catching on like wildfire, some say its because its cheaper to keep your hair au naturel, others are about embracing their selves with pride and no additives…….
As natural hair trends are being accepted in the corporate world as well as some education institutions people no longer have to conform to having only particular hair style and length as the acceptable.
I have heard people jokingly quip:
“MaRasta avakuwanda kudarika vanhu….”
Translation: “The are now more rasta haired persons than people”
Funny thing though, it kinda carries an implication that rasta folk aren’t quite regular people, even when someone is describing a group of people they will zero in on that “yeah I saw 4 people and one rasta” instead of just saying 5 people.
Its crazy weird how random people will walk up to you and greet you like you belong to some super elite, socially conscious group and all you have to do is give a vague rasta nod and they walk away happy…….
Should people meet me walking with my fam like this:
Its On!
People have such a fascination with dreadlocks that I am not surprised the trend is trending, especially in the circles for creatives; where its almost a signature look. Odds are very high, if you spot someone with locks, they are into some creative art…….

PS….. So what does your hair say about you?
Becoming The Muse 
To correct the misconception, natural hair is by far more expensive to maintain because products are overpriced.
There is just something captivating about a rasta person. I don’t know what it is. Maybe because it’s a way of life? I know that not all people with locks are rastafarians, but there’s just an assumption somewhat in our society. Especially when the person of interest has those long ones. It fascinates me anyway.
BTW, for how long have you been locked? Would you cut it?
