Reggie Rockstone cuts off his trademark dreadlocks

Reggie Rockstone has a new look. The Hiplife grandpapa has cut off his locks of many years.

It is not clear what informed his decision to go all bald as there hadn’t been any prior indication he was going to get rid of them.

The GLO X Factor judge on Wednesday posted a picture of his new look on the micro blogging site Twitter, informing his numerous fans of the new him.

Having kept to the hairdo for over a decade, he went through the professional years of his high-flying career as a musician, spotting that iconic look. This same look had given him the unique brand identity.

Also called locks, or dreads, dreadlocks are matted coils of hair, internationally formed from a variety of different hair textures. Various methods, including backcombing, are used to encourage its formation.
