1st dreads,1st falls,1st partial install on my 1st born.

Post by whileromeburns » Mon Jun 13, 2011 4:06 pm

Hello! Here are flickr links to pics of my first attempt at making dreads and a layered fall and doing a partial install on my daughter. There are 10 DE dreads braided in the front and a single fall. The colorful bits are acrylic yarns crocheted into thick ropes and "distressed". Sorry for the links, cannot figure out how to post just photos from Flickr. Thank you for looking and thanks in advance for any comments or critiques you may have!

Everything is quite excellent for your first time. Next post should go in Show Off, because you definitely have some budding skills.
