    Great video!! I really appreciate how simply you describe how to do it. Also, I adore your death hawk!! My only correction for you is this: (I'm a licensed cosmetologist) I promise you are putting way more stress on your hair and causing a lot more damage & breakage by doing this with wet hair. Hair is a fabric that's very delicate. When the hair is wet it is way more stretchy, so when you put tension on it when you're braiding, it will be 90% more likely to cause breakage as the hair dries and shrinks back to its normal length.

      +Leah Heart I actually just heard about this, thank you for commenting!! I'm gonna try doing an install with dry hair next time, but honestly, if it's too difficult for me I'll continue installing with wet hair. But fingers crossed I get the hang of it. :) (P.S. Everyone else reading comments, read this one!)

I'm going to get my hair done into a big sidecut on one side, kinda like +GlamAndGore (Mykie). ❤️ Also, I make wool Dreadlocks!!! My company name is Dread Cove. I'd be happy to cut you a deal on wool dreadlocks if you would be willing to do a video review on my dreads! Let me know!

    Would it be a okay to take them out every night before or any time you wash your hair? It seems like a tedious thing to do every day but idk if I'd want to wear them every day if I don't have to once they're in... And does it matter how long your hair is as long as its not too short?

    I just wondered how much time I should set aside to complete it. Any help would be immensely appreciated. 😁

      Katelyn Witherby they look just fine on a full head of hair. Naturally is does look different but don't feel like you have to shave a good part of your head if you want to have dreads. It really is just a matter of style preference though.

    That's smart that you wet the hair cuz when wet it's stretches and shrinks when dry, so that would tighten and make a more secure install. Have you ever tried the blanket stitch?. I was thinking about pulling the left over ends threw a crimping bead and pulling crimping link bead inside of dread with crochet needle to hide it. I'm going to try it..no one has done it yet. Good video doll.

      aka.awesomeness depending on the size of your hands you should be okay. My hands from the tops of my wrists to the ends of my middle fingers are only about 6.5 inches long which is a pretty good length. Your hair just needs to be long enough to put into a braid.

      That actually never happened to me until I used clear bands for my most recent install. When it happened I didn't do anything, because I use two bands on each dread. But if both snapped, I would just put one back on.

    when you buy your dreads do you buy them in pairs or just one by one? and i also have a deathhawk how many do i have to buy?

      I buy them in sets, generally 20-30. You'd probably want at least 30 to start, unless they're thin then you'd need 40 or more.

    Sorry if I sound stupid, however, won't you see the band on the dread? Does that not alter the look?

      Sophie Cooper being able to see the band is really a matter of preference. You can use whatever bands you want, have them match the color of the dread or the color of your hair, or you can use clear bands which I don't recommend because they're very fragile for some reason.
