Where, Jamaica/Ethiopia?
You are aware that many people, including the Celts that a lot of white British people are descended from, also used to have dreadlocks?

Or are you not allowed dreadlocks unless your cultural heritage has unbroken dreadlock-use in its recent history?

My "unless they grew up there"
was accent related, not dreadlock related.

I tend to find dreadlocks suit very few white men, but that's just a personal aesthetic preference.

It's not that I think...
...they're wankers as a result of a particular haircut. It's just from experience of everyone I've met who's white with dreadlocks, therefore I tend to prejudge.

at the risk of getting myself added to Mike Woz Ere's list again
I had a great time when I had dreadlocks despite my racial handicap

Cut them off a few years ago, but I've still got them in a bag somewhere

Likewise.
