u can comb out the ends (tip s of real dreads roots of extentions) a couple inches then mash the ends together like if your splicing rope but instead of weaving the strands like you do when splicing wrap the joints in hemp or embroidery thread wrap an inch or so above and below too so its sturdy and lets the hair inside dread together

Also, human hair can get pricey when it comes to extensions. Comb the forums because I'm sure there are a lot of other people who've done this in the past and their experiences can help with your research.

most of em removed the extensions after a few weeks to months i think most would say it was a waste of time and money..

most say they didnt feel right like they were dead weight not a part of them

there were a few blog posts about that

Yeah, that's why I thought it would be a good idea to read up on those. It's a time and money investment that really needs consideration at the spiritual level. :)

I did this once, Used Kankelon(sp?) hair....I could not stand how it felt on my skin. Synthetic hair blows!! They are fun to braid in for a party or something but I could not handle the feeling of fakeness on my body. I'm also a very textural person...I could spend hours touching things,especiallysoft things, like some kind of burnt out Etard hahah! Good luck though, they can be fun to make, and you can do all kind of crazy colours. Weee!
