Hi All,

Its been forever since i've properly posted let alone do a show off!

My friend has been dying to get someone to install plastic with so she can take photos for her portfolio.

This was her first attempt and we were really pleased. it took around 8hrs to do mainly because we kept taking tab breaks all the time :roll: i didnt leave till 5am so i dont look the best in the photos. hehe


There is 4 types of blue rexlace,2 types of pink, clear blue tubing in different thicknesses, the odd blue scoobie, a handful of dreads and tons of thick white and blue washing line... let me tell you its not nice to sleep on.

anyways ive rambled enough...

PICCCSS!!

Just starting...

Oooh I like it! Haven't seen plastic installed for ages either.

I had plastic on myself a longtime ago, and I remember it was horrible to sleep on too!

Do you have an undercut, or a full head install, how heavy is it? *nosy* :P

thanks! :D

i have a shaved head which is growing in, mohawk style, the fluff is at the annoying stage of too short to braid/straighten but long enough to go curly/stick out. grrr. So it was just a half a head including my fringe :)

it was alot heavier than a full head of dreads, when she did the one side i had to have it tied up as it was so heavy it hurt, i got used to it tho!

it was the washing line that made it hard to sleep in coz it was so spikey.

Ahh, cool, it looks quite full regardless, so I wasn't sure.

Hope you don't get spiked too much by the washing line for the rest of the install :D

Thanks everyone!:)

Yes unfortunately it does seem to had died down quite a bit.
The cyber scene in Newcastle is still poor tho I think a few more nights may be opening up soon, were just trying to get people interested in plastic again.

Hard work :(

But we shall keep trying!
