I say go for it. Dreads look good on women. I was bummed I didnt do dreads and instead did the mohawk. Next year once I let this hair grow back its dreads for me.
ok im gonna be the first person here to just clearly say DON'T DO IT.
1) its a major pain in the ass to make it work
2) keeping it clean and healthy takes a ton of work (more then you currently do)
3) if and when you decide you no longer want them either be prepared to shave your head or be prepared for the longest, most painful process you will have ever gone through in your entire life.
more often then not, dreads don't get kept well, they turn into whats commonly referred to as "shit locks" or just two or three giant dreads. its really unfortunate.
i also don't know if it would look right on you... im sorry, don't hate me
