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.

Black/ Green Transitionals & Install
Here's my most recent set, started about 6 months ago and just recently finished. It's 50/50 mix of singles and doubles that total to about 40. The transitions were done with the crochet hook method and sealed with a wet towel/ garment iron.
Singles
Doubles
And the installation: My hair is cut into an undercut that tapers back to about a 1" ponytail (like Sokka if you're an Avatar fan). The dreads are done with singles around the outside and doubles on the inside, installed to one side so they'll lay right.
All installed by my wonderful girlfriend who hates to be photographed. We were dying her mohawk purple while installing.

They look ace. More dudes should have synth dreads.

Re: Black/ Green Transitionals & Install
Thanks again everyone! I don't know why synth dreads seem to be such a gendered thing, but I'm glad to be involved in this community either way
