Thanks for having a look nonetheless. In hindsight a voiceover without completely re filming this one would probably have been helpful. You can see a bit clearer what I’m doing when I get to the front sections! Xo
Sarah Alexandra Fethers thanx for getting in touch Sarah, I did give up half way through ,sorry, now I’ve watched it all and I can see what your doing, I’ve got really short pixie cut and I’m 47 I’ve been told it cost a lot of money to do this so I was chuffed when I saw your vid, where did you get the hair from and how much did you use please and would I need anything else? You look great 👍
Awesome! I used two packs of 10 double ended dreads, so forty dreads total and it worked really well just in the top long section of my hair - I’ve got undercut back and sides. I got bleach blonde and silver for the colours in my hair at the time. These are the ones I used: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151243511802 The only thing I find is that every couple weeks you’ll need to dampen and retighten the actual dread as they loosen a bit with wear and friction. But plenty of videos on how to do that and it’s easy enough :) I really appreciate you giving it another go and watching til the end - in hindsight I could have made the video far better! Xo
Oh and you’ll need plaiting bands, I would pay a couple quid more to get decent strong ones as the natural oils and grease in your hair will break them down over time.
Sarah Alexandra Fethers thanks very much, I’ll get them of e bay , it should be enough for my hair style as its shaved around back and sides and my pixie is growing out , I’m just a bit worried that the top mightn’t be long enough in places , can I ask how do I wash it and what oils do I put on, and do I have to undo them all to tighten them? Thanks for the help
Thanks so much! I actually took them down and reinstalled last night as they loosened off a bit too quick - think my sectioning was rushed. But they’re great to have in for a cool look while I wait to get past the awkward length. Thanks for taking a look! Xo
Wish I could see what your doing hunny

They look super good. I started wearing synthetic dreads almost 2 years ago now so my hair is much longer but it was a pixie at the beginning!x

I love this look thinking about doing the same thing with mine. How many dread extensions did you but in your head ??
I had two packs of 10 double ended I think, so 20braids but 40 dreads in the end :)
