It depends on your personal reason for getting them. They could symbolize a lesson in patience and a love for things natural if you dread your hair naturally - that is, with no icky waxes and products, just time and patience. Or if you go to a salon to get them 'done' it could just be a fad or a fashion statement or a shortcut to a look you want. It could be a religious or cultural statement, many peoples throughout history wore dreadlocks before it was popularized through the birth of the Rastafari movement (which is a fairly new movement in history). The fact is at one time long ago before shampoos and combs existed, everyone had dreads of some kind. As most other choices you make regarding your appearance and habits, what it represents is largely personal. You will find people with dreadlocks in every nation!
