Forum rules
If it is fake hair related it goes in here!
1) Nice clear pic of the hair- we are not particularly interested in cam whoring - you want to show yourself off - put it in the gallery for 'everything else'.
2) When commenting - please be more OT than "wow you are freakin' hot!" We all like to be told we are hot mamma's - but mention the hair too!
3) Please don't be horrified if people give you helpful criticism. If you give criticism, please do so respectfully.
4) If you would like to NOT hear criticism, please say so.
5) If you are specifically looking to refine your technique, please post it in the "Critique" section (under Advice & Know How) so we can help be extra picky. ;)
6) The Show Off section is only for showing off hair, not making sales. Please make no references to eBay, A and P, or any kind of sales. You may offer the same item for sale in A and P, but no cross linking between A and P and Show Off. Show Off should be a place to comment and encourage each other; we don't want Show Off to become a billboard for sellers.

i hope this is ok to put here. you can find my progress pictures of these dreads here: http://hairextensionsforum.com/viewtopi ... 23&t=17800

here is the finished set, 27 DEs (11 black wine, 5 deep purple, 6 orchid and a few blends thrown in as well). i would love to hear what everyone thinks! i spent a very long time on these dreads, so i hope they hold up!

Rightly so they should be in show offs!

I absolutely adore these, crocheted dreads as nice as these make me miss dreads so much.

Ah, I know I geeked out on your last post, but allow me to do it again, because they look great! The colors look awesome together and although they're tied back it looks like a clean install. Great job!
