Ok, one night I was really bumming on the way my hair was growing out and how the layers curled and decided to let my boyfriend cut my hair, to fix up the layers for me but he got carried away and hacked it all off, it looked great but I really missed my hair. it grew out funny and I'm not cutting it again, I'm letting it grow but even before I cut it i'd been thinking about a second set of dreads, I never should have combed the first set... so now i want my length back AND i want dreads... help? I just moved to the next province with my boyfriend and we have very little money, I would dread them myself and sew in the extensions myself too but the thing is... where the hell and I going to get them? I have no dready friends who I can talk into cutting theirs and lending a few haha... and I don't really want shiny synthetic crap hanging from my head... what's a girl to do?!
I have heard of people using human hair for dread extensions. I remember seeing a tutorial thread of some sorts....looking.... http://dreadlocktruth.com/community/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=1855 There it is.
Yeah, you can get real human hair. I did it for my one dread. If buying it is too expensive, maybe see if you can chop off some of a friend's and then just dread it yourself Also, that tutorial melissa posted...I did mine a bit differently; I cut off the joint and just crocheted the dread right into my real dread... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1r_HyoKUgs"]YouTube- adding dreadlock extensions NO GLUE I learned from this video Good luck!
