Um yeah, love this. I’ve been debating whether or not to get dreads for a while now, and this makes me want them so badly! Just don’t know if it’s worth the work/hassle.

They do look really good on you!! I’ve thought about getting them before too but I would miss my natural hair too much.

I love yours in that photo – the two colors twisted together looks so good!

Ah! You made me miss my dreads! I had a set of about 80 in my hair. I keep wanting to put them back in, but I keep thinking about sleeping on them again and the dreadache that comes along after the first few days. If you ever want to keep them, I found the best way to sleep on them is to put them in a Pebbles style bun on top of your head. It’s still super hot and uncomfortable, but you don’t feel like you’re being attacked by a squid in the night. I didn’t quite have all of my dreads in (I worked up to a full set each time) but it’s just the top section that’s missing: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y66/locker_elf/Dreads/CIMG4893.jpg

Thanks Mandy! Yeah, sleeping on them was not very comfortable and my scalp is definitely glad to be free of them now. If they looks as good down as they did up I probably would have rocked them for a little longer.

You could definitely give them a shot! It took about 40 mins to put them in and then I took them out myself in about the same time. They’re a little expensive, but you can keep them in a month or so, so it’s a good test to see if you’d like the real thing.

They really do look great on you! But it’s probably just the sassy bun, and I would grow tired of the uncomfortable sleeping very quickly! Lovely for sometimes though and the costume looks great!

They look fabulous on you! I’ve always wanted to try synthetic dreads but I’ve never had the guts. You can totally pull them off!
