Are women allowed to have dreadlocks in the Maghreb region?
My friend and I are planning to travel to the Maghreb region once it is safer to do so. She has fairly long (maybe chest length) dreadlocks and we were wondering if we might run into any issues while there? She grew up in the west but has middle eastern heritage and so without being insulting does have a middle eastern appearance, so perhaps could be mistaken for a local while we are there? One of the first things we thought about are the challenges of wearing a burka or hijab with the long dreadlock hairstyle, since it isn't easy to tie up into a small neat bun for example. Are there any specific things we should think about, or should we rethink our travel?
