First FULL install!

Post by Lamie » Wed Oct 19, 2011 7:17 pm

So, at approximately 2:30 a.m. I got a little bugger in my arse and decided to just go for it although I'd have to take them all out before Thurs. morning. So, I went ahead with no plan and no mirror behind me and just went for it. These pics are god awful and these dreads need to be resealed badly but I am pretty darn proud of myself. I think for having very rough sections, it turned out pretty nice. No bald spots that I can see. I used approximately 40 DEs, which surprised me with how thick my hair is. Anyway, here are the photos. Take it easy on me, eh? ;)

This last one is terribly blurry but I just could NOT get it right...

So sad I have to take them out for school. =(

Thank you, ladies! I'm doing my observation hours in an elementary school right now. They are quite conservative so I'm not even going to bother asking. I'll be done soon though!
