  • I like that you explained different types and showed most, and the hanger tip. I hadn't thought of that. What type of hair do you use? The K(insert rest of word) type? lol I know I got a bad brand but its what I had to work with, it melts if I don't use a wet towel in my sealing process. I would like to know how you back comb, like, I'd prefer to watch a video that explain more in depth of the back combing process and what types of combs/brushes work. Reply back please :)

  • @twinMP I'll happily make a video but please keep in mind that I am by no means a back combing expert. I fused together a few different methods more suitable for me. And as for hair you should ALWAYS use Kanekalon. Its one of the fibers that will seal properly.

  • How can I order from you???? And prices? Thanks so much

  • @Witchyone131 Go ahead and send me a personal message and we can talk about custom orders. Prices always vary but its usually around 15-20 bucks for every 10 dreads.

  • Thanx for replying :) And I've been testing out more ways of back combing and dreading itself and I've recently found that I like the rip and pull method best, along with some back combing. I've seen it's mostly used it making real dreads and not as much in synthetics, but it works great for me. Sealing is still a bitch, I've also tried different methods of that. I prefer the wet towel and hair straightener. Just wanted to give you a little update of my findings on the subject.

  • best explanation evar.. =)

  • Damn kid, you know your shit :P I love you Landipants <3

  • Cost is important lol, I've never gone through that haha.

    I'm that Aussie xD

  • Parfect Darling :D
