How to Install DE Dread Extensions - The Braiding Methods 

I don't even know what to say about the previous reply ._. But- I think the video turned out great, I've been waiting FOREVERRR for a new dread install tutorial. definitely not disappointed!(/^▽^)/

ch527kerosene Your hair looks great before dreads and after amazing as usual. 😁 love you beautiful.

Super helpful! I love watching your videos, keep up the amazing work☺

ch527kerosene I love your vids they inspire me

I have severe anxiety and find your videos soothing while I do my dreads. Very creative color patterns and I love the music! I did my last install literally the day before you uploaded this, but I'll watch again for sure when ready to install the next set! Watching your videos feels like doing hair with a friend but without the social anxiety pressure to interact. I am especially glad, in this video, you showed how to blanket stitch and the first wrap arounds on the regular braid. I always mess the initial one up haha! also your sectioning is fierce. How much product do you apply to your hair for braiding and when? Interested in seeing how product would help my hair. Thank you for posting this video, you're awesome! :)

Maybe you are subconsciously preparing for the day you decide to get them.

I was you a few months ago (see pic)... I now have dreads! Haha.

same

I have not hair,so ...

Alainna Panda because she is fucking beautiful

Tusky always

It creaked

she does

she does

Still?

Same, except I can braid

I have alopecia, so my hair balds, and I'm thinking about dreads for the first time. I never could do it because I would have to braid them myself. We are opposites, hello

​@@randomfroginapond5001 it takes practice! I paid a loctician/braider in my area to help install my first set. I installed a set on a wig for my cousin who had cancer, so that was good practice. I STILL have issues installing them on the very back near the base of my neck, but I can usually find someone to help with like 4 of them lol

That's weird

Sir Mutantenkraken right

I know!! Same! I think it's a mixture of her freckles and her "cute as a button" small shaped face!

Her face and freckles are extremely symmetric so us humans are naturally drawn to her.

i think for me his her mouth. she has a expressive way to speak, a healthy smile and the shape of her lips kind of draw my eye. P.s.: well who would have thought that this comment actually get so many upvotes o_o

Those eyes. The eyes and the freckles and the nose. Perfection. The jawline too. I wanna draw her lol.

Oh gosh, thank you

Omg SAME! Lol I thought the same!!

Mary wow everyine is in love with this girl yes she very beautiful every girl including transgender are all beautiful as you are

You never know until you try! Plus a way to test out dreads temporarily are dreadfalls, it's how I made sure I wanted to go through with installing the first time. There are some good vids on them on yt, just search "dreadfalls tutorial" and they'll pop up. Maybe it'll give you the final push to go for it!

I want to as well, but my hair is waist length and it'd take FOREVER to do and I don't have the patience to do all that myself. 5 hours is my limit

Danelle Van Dongen you can always start with maybe a safe colour similar to your own hair color? :) that's how I started

Freddie Boi I didn’t think I’d look good with them till I did it. DO IT!!! Never question what if. Best thing about synth dreads is that if you don’t like the way you look with them in you can easily unbraid n take em out.

Saaaaammmmeeeee

Elle Winchester shes a pro :)

Installing dreds for 9 hours every few months isn't effortlessly

@@GTLx16 its not the dreads that make her beautiful though.

Lmao right

@chelz mine isn't plastic. It's all metal.

Neele's live Und ich dachte ich wäre die einzige deutsche hier😅 Srry das du mit dein lehrer nicht klarkommst.. eng is meine lieblingssprache😅😂

Aurora Depolli mega cool ich mag englisch zwar ,aber ich habe noch latein fanzösisch und japanisch .

+Neele's live That is so cool to hear! I'm happy to help, and thank YOU

you‘re not the only German here! I am addicted to her videos :)

So viele deutsche hier? Hätt ich nicht gedacht🙌🏻

The dollar store has rubber bands if it pops pick up another it's like 500 to a pack dang near

@@TheAverageServant I did end up getting some cheap ones, thinking exactly that - if they snap, I can just get another. Didn't work out as well as I'd hoped, they were continuously snapping while wearing the dreads so I was littering broken rubber bands everywhere without noticing and braids started coming loose. Next time I'll either have to double/triple each rubber band, or just get better ones. I did also get some proper ones at one point (I've worn my dreads three times since posting my first comment) and the proper ones lasted just fine so I might just bite the bullet and buy those again even though they're more expensive.

Yay that's awesome!!

When you get out, you will go crazy doing nails and hair lol! I did 15 years and have done everything including dreads now 🤷🏼‍♀️.

Alex Cromer lmfao wut.

lil 3 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Lol she's taken

I know this is two years old. But ew

Gross.

😂😂

ALEX MASON i fucking swear! like the amount of sections and and number of flippings....like WTF!

Right! That start tho

You know what else is easier than this shit, growing actual dreads.

Honestly i think it is lol when i install my dreads its crazy asf and its really hard to do within usually what it takes me 2 and a half hours

ALEX MASON or building a rocket😛

i want to know aswell

oof okay. dreads don't damage your hair, you're just braiding your regular hair around em and the braids sit there and chill out for awhile so it's totally fine; ah leaving them in for a long time with loose roots can cause the roots to dread a bit and you'd have to pick the hair apart to get it straight again but that won't even damage if you do it gently (figured that could possibly make you feel like your hairs damaged but nah) - doctoredlocks dreads are fucking TRASH sorry but do not go with machine made dreads jfc will have a bad time. You can find pretty cheap "okay" ones on etsy. Popular amount for a full set is 45 DE, that's what I recommend. You can do more/less depending on your own hair thickness and the dreads thickness though. And you definitely don't need to cut your hair at all, just do shorter braids probably lol. andd I feel like people online are more shitty about dreads than people in person, i've been wearing them off and on for like 9 years and never had anyone sass me irl, even though i'm kinda worried i will be but mainly cause i'm paranoid as a person anddd yeah lmao but i guess it does take some balls to wear them, cause some people are stupid and shitty????

Sammii Synthetic And anyone who is rude to someone because they have dreads is just jealous that they don't have the balls to wear them!

1: they Wont damage your hair, I use them and I'm a cosmetologist. As a matter of fact they actually help protect your natural hair. There's less need for chemicals once they are installed, help protect a bit from sun exposure, and ultimately keep you from destroying your hair if you're like me and need change often to survive. Ive been seeing shaved heads everywhere and itching to shave mine but I know I have a huge forehead and willing to bet my head is shaped weird at so I'm installing new dreads next week so I'll calm down. I also install some every summer be hair grows faster in those months and if you remove them at the end it's like surprise new hair Lmao. 2: doctored locks are not 'trash' they are not meant to just be installed out of the package, unless you order the ones that are, which cost more. They are well worth the price if you put in some work. You will probably need 4-6 packs with a full head depending on thickness of your hair, the sections you make, and how you want the end results, so yes it may end up costing around 50 or more but regardless what anyone says you will not find a full set in better condition for that price on Etsy, in fact slot of the sellers buy these and simply tease, seal, and decorate them and charge hundreds of dollars. Doctored locks need to be teased and sealed before application or they will unravel and look like crap. You can watch tutorials on here for how to do it, it's not too hard just takes time. And honestly recommend them if you've never had dreads be you may not like them and why buy a 200 dollar set if you end up hating them right? They're cheaper and look fake at first but after i teased and sealed mine I sprayed them with dry shampoo and rolled them In my palms and they looked natural as as any other set. As far as other peoples opinions I've never had a problem with this and I was warned I would. In fact I get the best reactions from black girls, they love them and appreciate that I install them myself. I'm sure it could happen at any time but I work with alot of black people and they have gave nothing but good feedback, they even say it makes me more approachable to them. A couple white people online have bitched at me about them,but are usually shut down pretty quickly. All in all I think they're great. Hot sometimes but there are ways to style them to help you keep cool and even though they're heavier and I'm prone to migraines they really didn't make them any worse. They're also fun to decorate and I love that I can just pull some out of my face and tie them together in the back and they'll stay there all day lol

No No or maybe no hair

Or there black

As u should

@@Livingd3adgir1 hey I was just kidding lmao pls don't sacrifice babies. Adults are okay tho

Goda Ban :)

dump him

Shona Kane not gonna let an amazing guy go because he has an opinion on a certain hairstyle 😚

Will he leave you for a hairstyle? Then he really is not worth it.

Do it anyways man

so when you put dreads in your hair be sure to follow this tutorial:)

What does that have to do with her?

?

@TTFPouyii ew. I’m styled like how *I* grew up. Y’all are clearly inspired and obsessed with poc fashion & looking to feel special. Carry on though, that ain’t got shi to do with me

?

💯

She's not 'stealing' anything. Nothing is stopping you from having dreads if you want.

@@finlaymarron exactly. Also dreadlocks aren’t just part of African cultures, they’ve been found to be a widely utilized hairstyle throughout most of the world during some age. For example in India they were and are still worn by the Sadhus, also some Vikings were found to have worn dreadlocks, as well as countless other cultures around the world for different reasons. It’s completely ignorant to say she is “stealing” the hairstyle, when almost every race has some sort of connection to it. Also it’s her hair, and her money, so no she doesn’t have to care about what you feel towards her wearing said hairstyle.

@@Lion08888 well said 👏👏👏

@@Lion08888 those are absolutely not the same as dreadlocks.

Cap

Awesome mom

my mom would NEVER let me do this lmao even if i convinced her to let me she would be verrrrry mad about it

Thank you so much!!
