    Not sure if you’re serious, and I don’t know if the pic is authentic, but I don’t see dreadlocks, just thick Asian hair.

    Source: I’m Asian and had classmates with the same kind of hair.

      The one on the left has half her hair in dreadlocks.

      I guess the shutter could have blurred it to look exactly like dreadlocks, but it looks pretty definitive to me

          Could be. I tried a reverse image search to find more context, and didn’t find anything but posts like this with no citations, starting from 2017.

          I’m not convinced it’s real.

          Did I say it was? My point was that it would be very odd in 1945 Japan

          Jfc. Nevermind, I’m not getting anywhere in this thread. I guess this isn’t a community for discussion, just neat pictures.

            I thought the same thing tbh, but upon zooming in I think it may just be a combo of shadows/sunlight and a shitty 1945 camera. Some of the “dreads” look kinda like normal hair towards the tips.
