I'd probably wanna taper the ends up quite high, I like that style of dread. ^_^
I will try to get a video done this week. And the higher you seal/taper them the more awesomely spikey they look. I'd love to see other peoples take on them. Mine just have a nice tight taper starting about an inch or so from the end. All depends on personal preference. :)

I have the clips (very similar ones), but I lack the glue and wefts. >_<
I forgot to mention that tuts can only be done if I have the materials LOLOLOL!


Chelseagirl used cheap human hair weft and glued it all around the edges of those clips.

Can you post up a picture of what the clips look like so I know to get the right kind?

I believe the ones in the tut are Goody brand. The ones I got were from a variety store.

So this is pretty old, but if you're still taking requests how about some spiral wrap tuts? :)

I can probably give it a try! I think I made one a while back, don't know where it is though.

Would be amazing! I love your tutorials, and for some reason I can't wrap my head around spirals. :]

okokokokok, this might have a tutorial somewhere but I don't know what its called so I can't find it. How do you make those dreads with like... thin, webby splashy type things? :lol: its like splashes but really thin and spread out so you can see the base color through it, and all... I dont know, I've seen a lot of them, a good example of what I'm talking about is the third set down here http://hairextensionsforum.com/viewtopi ... 82&t=10928 the dark blue with neon webbywrappysplashies. And a bunch more on that thread are like that too but thats the most basic example. Is this a trade secret or is it just so easy that no one makes a tutorial for it, or is there a tutorial but I just don't know what this techinique is called? Is it just messing around with splashes, maybe not rolling/tangling/felting the second color up first and just felting loose hair onto the dread? :lol: AHDUNNO! but that would be great to knowww.

I think that the blue hair was backcombed, then had thin bits of pink/neon yellow added to the dread, backcombed into the blue, then twisted. It's not a splash.
It could be a spiral wrap like mentioned above, but with different colours.

omg, how about how to avoid getting a visible lump when making transitional dreads using the crochet method.

I am SO frustrated right now. *deep sigh*

Hiiii,

I was wondering if you could do a vid of double ended braids and twists, kinda like what twiggydevour Did in this kit I bought from her :)?

http://m.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid ... 1251109707

If you can that would be great! I would have posted it in the braid and twists section but no one really seems to go there much!:(

I can't see the pic, but I probably can try something...
I do those sorts of things differently... I make a single loop and do two legs.

To do twisty bits in DE's I've been using a latch hook to pull the hair through the middle of the dread, back combing, twisting and sealing one end at a time.....
It's pretty good for doing two different colours ;)

This was in reference to twists like these (from IKS), but DE:

Id like to see more tutorials on natural styles, like knotty wrappy crochet twist and rip, or whatever else really, as well as different methods of doing them.
