If Carlsberg made dreads.....*install pics added*

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.

If Carlsberg made dreads.....*install pics added*

.....they'd be the best dreads in the world!!! :lol:

These, however are not the best dreads in the world, however they are mine. Made for by me, so wahey or something.

I did a mix of normal wet felting & 2 cool machine washes just to get the felt nice & tight (I hate fluffy roving) Originally, I was gonna have a whole head of short ones & a few longer at the front, but then decided an A Line would be better.

These were my second attempt as in my haste to buy roving I didn't check that I'd actually bought superwash merino - which is chemically treated to NOT felt >___<

They're a mix of natural merino & natural blue face leicester.

Thank you all.

I dyed them using coffee because they were a shade or two lighter than my hair:

I have a few install pics:

They lasted a week before I decided my roots were too hideous to keep them in any longer! :lol:
