Ask Audrey…

Dear Audrey,
It’s me granddad’s 100th birthday party in a couple of weeks. I asked what he wanted as a gift from me, and he said that the only thing he wants is for me to cut my dreadlocks off and look respectable. I don’t know what to do; I’ve had them for eight years and feel like I’d lose my identity if I got rid of them. What should I do?

Young man,
Does your hair define you? It can be difficult coaxing yourself out of a fashion rut, but why not go for it and see it as a new opportunity. There are innumerable styles for you to experiment with and whilst you’re at university is the prime time for such behaviour.
However, if you think you’re Samson and your strength will vanish if your locks are cut off, maybe you should think twice before taking the plunge, see if granddad will accept you for what you are and would accept boiled mints as an alternative gift. Good luck deciding,
Audrey
