A Quick Fact About Locks
In the United States we are brought up with a constant barrage of racial and stereotypical sentiment that colors our perspective. Prior to doing my own research on locks I thought that only African Americans with really thick curly hair could rock them. After looking into it I found out that ANYONE can wear locks. Indigenous and tribal people all over the world with various hair types have worn locs. The reasons for taking on this hair style are as different as the people who wear them.
