The first known occurrence of this hairstyle came from Northern Africa from depictions of ancient Egyptians wearing locked hairstyles and wigs appearing on bas-reliefs, statuary & other artifacts. Mummified remains of ancient Egyptians with locks, as well as locked wigs, have also been recovered from archaeological sites. African hair, when left alone, will eventually lock due to it's texture. European hair, though it will mat (see below) will not "dreadlock" in the same way if simply left alone. However, the name "dreadlocks" is traced back to days when African peoples were enslaved and dragged across the ocean. Their captors referred to the locks that had formed as a result of the slaves hair becoming matted with blood, dirt, excrement, and tears as 'dreadful' and eventually the 'dreadful' hair formation became known as 'dreadlocks.' Rastafarian culture later reclaimed the term as a source of pride in one’s history. (Found post describing this more in length HERE.)

These are Glibs (also Gleebs):

The origin of these came from the Irish Celts, and were typically worn by soldiers in the 16th century. Though some depictions show the Irish Celtic Soldiers wore their Glibs a little differently, such as caked with mud during battle, or only covering the eyes, many still wear their glibs today in the styles of those in the images above (because lets be honest, mud-caked matted hair isn't exactly feasible today) because of their Celt heritage. Unlike African hair, Celtic hair does not lock, though it can mat. This is due to the fact that some European hair types tend to stick and clump together easily into a dreadlock shape if left alone (but still not to be confused with how actual dreadlocks form) Due to this sometimes these are also called Mat-Locks. Another name, Fairy-locks, was adopted from the folklore that claimed mischievous fairies would tangle and knot the hairs of sleeping children and the manes of beasts as the fairies play in and out of their hair at night.

These are Jata:

Originating as a form of religious practice, these are commonly found in India. They are worn among some Sadhus and Sadhvis, or Hindu holy men and women. The locks are sacred, an expression of disregard for profane vanity, and nearly exclusive to holy people in South Asia. Long jatas express a spiritual significance which implies the wearer has special relations with spirits, is an immortal traveler between two worlds and the master over fire, According to the 'Hymn of the longhaired sage' in the ancient Vedas.   Ascetics of South Asia, or Shaiva Nagas,  wear their jatas in a twisted knot or bundle on top of the head and let them down only for special occasions and rituals, where they then rub them with ashes and cow dung, considered both sacred and purifying, then scented and adorned with flowers.
