First wearable set lots'o pix
Okay so heres my first set (technically second my first ever dreads where wore by my daughter for her book week costume) so these i made for me.. im basically trying to wear them as much as i can to as many places i usually go to see how i feel wearing them b4 i decide if i will get an actual install done (would hate to go through hours of install only to have a melt down and take them out a few days later because i felt weird wearing them to places like the school to pick my daughter up ect..) anyway thats so another story !!
so heres some pics i took b4 i made them into falls they are a bit weird cuz i suck at using my DSLR
theres a few slightly dodgy ends in there haha..
And.. me wearing them
they are holding up okay so far, but to be honest im considering getting my next set made by someone a bit more experienced..
so yeah what do you think

Re: First wearable set lots'o pix
thanks! i was a bit worried if i didnt back comb enough as they where massive fuzz untill i started twisting.. maybe im a bit OT with the tight twists cuz that seemed to straighten them out alot haha.. they did the "erection test" tho haha..
some are starting to soften out quite a bit which worries me i hope they dont unravel!!

Re: First wearable set lots'o pix
Dreads always soften up a bit with wear, and a big poofball usually means it's super backcombed!! Since I started doing naturals, it's kind of second nature to palmroll the hair I backcomb even if I'm making twisted dreads, and I think it's helped with the frizzies a bit, That, and pushing them down and inside with your thumb while twisting.

Re: First wearable set lots'o pix
You did an awesome job! I agree with what some other people were saying, I think you should stick with it because you seem to be a natural. Keep at it! This set looks very well done.
