*Another go at synthetic dreads* EDITED

Post by IvyDryad » Mon Jan 31, 2011 8:36 pm

Hey again! I've spent my day practicing making dreads. So here's the part were you are supposed to give me feedback. :D These are the 8 SE dreads I made today. They are meant to be in different sizes. Just because I like it that way. ^^ Keep in mind that I've never made synthetic dreads before. I attempted to make solids, blended ones, a candycane and a transitional.

on to the attempts!

I flipped the picture so you could have a look at the ends aswell!

Thanks! :i2:

They look great! The loops may be a bit big, but maybe not. I like double enders, then you don't have to worry about the loops ;)

Thanks! Yeah, they turnet out a bit too big. But I wanted to try making SE dreads too. Next batch of experiments will be DE's! :D

And thanks to you all! ^^ This feedback is really important to me.

I love the blended ones! It looks like gold running through the dread. These look well made, I see no errors :) . You could stick these in show off. or make a few more and throw them in your hair. Id love to see a full head of these. Good job!

Wow, it's really unusual to see blended locks, very pretty though!

Ah, thank you so much! ^^ I want to make enough of these for a full head, so I'm waiting for my order from Ikickshins as we speak. :i2: This is so much fun! And thank you all for your feedback. It really helps!

these look lovely :D
i've always thought that blonde and brown are so pretty together, especially in candy canes!

this will be my last confession,
i love you never felt like any blessing.
whisper it like its a secret,
uttered to condemn the one who hears it,
with a heavy heart.
