Making Dreadlock extenders from HH hair need help please!

Post by Aricyn » Thu Feb 24, 2011 11:29 am

Okay so im going to have a go at making some HH dreadlock extenders so that i can start my partners natural dreads (his hair is about 3/4 inches long atm and he is at the point where he either wants dreads or wants to cut his hair cuz its annoying him lol

soooo

my question is what sort of hair should i buy to do this? micro rings and dread them? weft? can u cut the weft into smaller parts to dread? cuz most weft sets ive seen have bigger peices etc?
any help would be fantastic!! oh btw im in Australia

Weft hair is the best for this. Of course you can cut wefted hair.
There's a tut in the tutorials section.

You cut the size you need (usually 1" worth), backcomb, then cut the track. Check the tut.
