**Wanted** Print on synth or wool dreads!

[Squidgy]

Hi peeps, i know this is a commonly asked question so apologies if you have heard it before - i have looked and cannot find another tut on how to make animal print dreads... so...

Can people help me on what materials are good to use for either kk dreads or wool dreads. Is it better to make a stencil or try freehand.

Feel free to post pictures of methods or attempts, or finished products.

Muchoes Lurvey!!! Squidgy

You could do a search for fabric paint (not dye, but paint ). The bottles of paint I have are suitable for synthetic materials too, and it's totally wash-proof.

I bought mine on http://www.opitec.nl , I think they are their own brand. I have some textile markers too, which I bought at the Aldi at some point, I used those ones to make the Pikachu-dreads, I think they were from Carioca.

I prefer to use acrylic paint, it's never washed off my clothes or anything else ,so I'd say it would stick to wool dreads, and it definetly sticks to kk dreads. And I find it easy to free-hand it with a thin paint brush.
