I do believe it is my right to have dreadlocks but I'm not sure how to fight it. Why shouldn't I if they are clean and tidy?

I believe it is racist not to allow me to do so.
I think the problem is here that you seem to have taken the opportunity to grow dreadlocks whilst on extended leave. Now knowing that your company does not allow them you decide you will accuse them of racism.

If I had been away from work for, say, three months and decided to dye my hair pink I could not expect my company to accept it on my return. I know its not exactly the same argument but you get my drift.

If you had applied for a job and they had said we wont employ you because of your dreadlocks you may be in a better position.
