In "western" cultures, some people have chosen a dreadlock
hairstyle, despite many in mainstream society looking at it in a
negative light. This book deals with contradictions surrounding the
hairstyle such as often representing a protest against the
prevailing right-wing political systems, yet also emphasizing the
white person's power to appropriate any style. Based on interviews
and close observations in social media, the book offers insights
into the culture(s) surrounding dreadlocks and ultimately
interprets the phenomenon as a postmodern form of individuality.
