So thankful for this video I'm a hairstylist in the UK and have become obsessed with dreads for the same reason you did, wanting my dream hair and I love the look of dreads but everytime I've put them in my neck begins to hurt, think I was being way to OTT with my sectioning so thankyou so much 🙌❤ also cant wait to get back to work so I have money to buy off your website 😁

@krissypowers8936
@krissypowers8936 2 года назад
Clip the entire section of hair on top of the head but leave only the one section your using. Then flip your head over and braid that way

@magiv4205 2 года назад
I've gotten better and better at doing my own braids and fake dreads over the years, and the most important thing to keep it even for me is to take my time with sectioning my hair. It works best when you have a front and a back mirror of course, but it also works with just one mirror. I actually recommend starting with a small section at the top/front when you haven't done it often yet so you can decide how big or small you want a section to be, aswell as get a good feel for how it feels like in your hands. Then you can switch to the back. Learning how thick your strands feels like relative to their size makes it alot easier to braid the back even without a mirror. I try to always section all my hair before I start braiding anything (it's easy to get impatient) and this is especially important without a back mirror. This is as much for getting the rows neat and even as it is for getting the hair out of the way. For the back, I often braid them over my head for a more comfortable reach.

How many dreads does it typically take to make it look full? I have pretty thick and long hair so I figured maybe 60? I had real dreads before but they were too big and heavy so I want them more like yours 😘
@katyannabishop8299
@katyannabishop8299 2 года назад
It depends on the thickness of the dread itself that ur installing examples: hilighter thick dread u maybe only need 40-45 pieces for a full head sharpie thick dreads (the most common circumference size to buy) 50-65 pieces For the pencil thin dreads 80-90 pieces is usually the rule of thumb so thick hair personally I’d get the max amount possibly needed just in case worse case scenario u have left over pieces 🤷🏻‍♀️

How do you keep the scalp hair from looking thin and sparse when putting in these dreads? I tired some at one point and where My hair is do fine and thin (think like a babies hair) it made me look bald and my braids were the size of a small crochet hook.

So, I did his and now I am to the point where that SPOT has grown out and my roots are about 2 inches long then it randomly splits into a thicccc piece with multiple strands coming out of it. I also crocheted it to tighten it. But. How should I deal with this?? I cannot easily take out the dread extensions. So..... what do I do because it is choppy looking? Add a bead? Crochet in tiny inch long bits??

Only if i could take off my own head... lol Story of my life, everyone gets their hair done for free and me, the one who knows how to do it has to pay a professional to put rubber bands in.

Do yall have a hard time taking out and brushing out, ever. Mine sucked. I took out after a month for a good wash. It was the worse. Almost makes me not wanna do again. Do yall wash with yours in? Ever get wet? How long do yall leave in at a time

A way to conceal the roots, I've found myself, is by braiding in really small sections. Smaller than what was seen on his head. That's helped me at least, albeit, I'm sure there's probably another method?

I think not using the dread as the third part of your braids so much would look a lot nicer, you can still use it as a suppose that third strand just don't manipulate it keep it straight and work the hair around it it looks much better in the end and it lasts longer
