Dreading fine hair

I love love love love your style! So glad to have a fellow "darkling" on the site. Like you, I like to change my hair all the time, and I've been thinking of ways I can adapt my goth and gothabilly/rockabilly hairstyles to dreaded hair. I think I can make 'em work. Guess I'll find out!

hehe I plan to try and turn my husband into my personal hair dresser, hopefully he will get the hang of it

Yeah I had a deathhawk for years, loved it but I want to do more of aChelseyhawk type thing but dreaded, I know about how the dreads want to eat all the loose hairs, I used to glue in tracks that I dreaded at the back and I'd have toliterallyrip them out because the lose hairs in the back would tangle after just a couple days :-S If it gets to be too big of a pain I will probably just shave the lose sides into little side burns and let the bangs dread too

yay, definitely nice to not feel like an outsider here, I have to deal with enough of that in real life

Yeah, I am still debating over it, I wrote to a girl about getting a quote on 35 dreads at 10"-14" to just braid in since I am still nervous about taking the step but she asked for $120!!! ouch!

dont bother going to any salon or locticiabn theyre all a ripooff do it yourself its so easy

What about dread falls? They're not quite as versatile as braided-in dread extensions, but you can make and install them yourself.

Yeah falls are ok, I kind of wanted them to lay like a mohawk more than a pony tail. I really need to get a steamer, but I am going to try boiling water, see if that method works

lose your comb you'll love how it dreads
