Unbraiding Hair Dream Meaning

Many wake up perplexed when they dream about unknown hands plaiting their hair. Dreaming of Someone Doing My Hair? Let's see what it means.
Unbraiding Hair Dream Meaning

The last time we discussed about hair in dreams, we talked about the meaning of cutting hair in dreams or seeing someone cutting your hair. That was more in connection with men. Today we're going to talk about seeing someone doing your hair in dreams (which is more in connection with women). 

Like I've always said, the meaning of so many things in the physical realm are rarely the same when it comes to the spiritual side of life. Dreams are very spiritual. They are important. Although I do not advise people to lead their life based on dreams, I do encourage everyone to pay more attention to their dreams

Hair in dreams do not mean the same thing they mean to us in the physical realm. Negative hair dreams have the capacity to bring unfavourable conditions or situations to the waking life of the dreamer. 

Common hairdo dreams include the following:

  • Dream of some plaiting your hair
  • Dream of someone combing your hair
  • Dream of someone unbraiding your hair, etc. 

Hair dreams are rarely positive. In whatever form the hair dream comes, in order to avoid its adverse effects, it is needful the dreamer pays close attention to every detail in the dream and pray accordingly. 

Prophetic Meaning Of Hair


When it comes to the prophetic meaning of hair in dreams, we can always use Sampson as a case study. 

Samson was among the group of people known as Nazarites. These were people who made vows to God to live for Him. They were expected to be "consecrated" and "separated" for God's use. One of the requirements of the Nazarite vow was not trimming the hair. 

Numbers 6:2-5 KJV
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the Lord : [3] He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried. [4] All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk. [5] All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the Lord, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.

As we saw from the life and times of Samson, the Nazarites had great and supernatural abilities that the average human did not have—due to this life they lived. 

Gleaning from this, we can see that the human hair has many untapped secrets; it is such a powerful thing! When a person toys with our hair in dreams, it isn't for fun and it isn't something to treat lightly!

Biblical Meaning Of Hair In Dreams


The Bible further shows us in many places how important our hair is. 

1. Hair Represents Glory And Covering


1 Corinthians 11:15 ESV
But if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering. 

Speaking from a spiritual standpoint, the human hair does not just represent the glory of a woman alone, but also the glory of all humans. This is just one reason why we must treat hair manipulation dreams seriously and ensure they don't repeat anymore. 

2. Hair Represents Splendour


Proverbs 16:31
Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained in the way of righteousness.

Other words for splendour are beauty, elegance, glory, majesty, magnificence, etc. If the hair represents all of these great things, then the enemy is directly tampering with a person's destiny through hair manipulation dreams. 

If you saw a dream or consistently see a dream where someone is trying to give you a hairdo, understand that there's nothing great about this dream. Such is often a direct attack against the dreamer's glory; greatness, marriage, future and destiny. One must not allow such dreams to continue.

Dreaming of Someone Plaiting My Hair


There are many people (especially women) who dream about someone plaiting their hair. In most of such dreams, the dreamer is unable to see the face of the person who is giving them a hairdo; because the person stands behind their back, while they face their front. This alone tells that it's something fishy.

Such dreams are often very serious manipulation against the dreamer's destiny. Glory is brilliant and radiant. If an unknown person toys with your hair in dreams, they are directly attempting to tamper with your destiny. They are against your greatness; they are against the brightness of your future and destiny. 

The devil is a thief and a robber (John 10:10a) and most often, he works through evil persons. The source of such manipulations in dreams often stem from evil foundations. There are evil persons who seek to shine, become prominent and successful in life at the expense of others. Their evil plans must not be allowed to prosper. Such dreams must be met with powerful prayers. 


Someone Unbraiding My Hair Dream Meaning


To dream about someone unbraiding your hair is also a form of dream manipulation against one's glory. The enemy has many tactics, but we are not ignorant of his devices. Anyone who touches your hair in dreams do not mean you good, they are not your friend.

In a nutshell, someone doing your hair in dream portend the following:

  • Spiritual manipulation against marital life
  • Loss of focus and concentration in life
  • Attacks against the dreamer's destiny
  • Spiritual attacks against success and breakthrough.
  • Dream attacks against finances. 

Attacks against one's glory are purposed towards bringing embarrassment to the dreamer. But God shall embarrass those who are bent on embarrassing you, in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen! 

Prayer Against Hair Manipulation Dreams

  2. I frustrate every plot of darkness to frustrate my life maritally in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. 
  3. Father disappoint everyone who is against the brightness of my glory and destiny. Put them to shame in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ!
