Leonard Percival Howell, the first Rasta and the original 'Gong" was clean-shaved and clean-cut. A beard and hair does not make the man/woman; his/her actions do. No point in having long hair if you don't follow the teachings of Haile Selassier; which is what makes you a Rasta. be original. Be yourself. One Love.
My hair was getting quite long but I had it cut recently (first haircut in ten years) because my wife wanted it short. I consider myself a hippie but I've lived with people who don't like long hair.
Now I feel funny if I go to a reggae or metal show.. like I don't belong there. Of course I realize that ones character is the important thing, but if a stranger sees me on the street they will never know that I'm a reggae fanatic or hippie (peacenik.)
i quote ``dont haffi dread to be rasta´´....thats true...but i want to keep mine cus ur dreads are nothing more n less than ur GUNS against babylon...ur way to say i feel this i live this i die for this.....so i dont care if someone dont like or dont give me job....im like this and like this will b...
the only thing that can make you feel free is universal love that we find in our hearts without being against anything, though i overstand that fighting against babylon is satisfying somehow
Very cool song. Just memba dat no one but JAH HIMself cyaan cool Fyah burning. Please, be Yuhself till di end of time, and Yuh will gain luck an happiness!

Similar words from my favorite dee jay, Tippa Irie, from England: "Rasta no stay on your head.. it stay in your heart."
My favorite reggae singer is the man Horace Andy, one of the all-time greats. He didn't start growing dreads until his mid forties.
