YESSSSS THE HAPPY HARDCORE IN THE BACKROUND!!!!

They look so cool ! Thanks for sharing.

where did you purchase your hair colors? thanks

you music is incredible lol.. the colors of the hair is dope

Hi, question please. Is the neon dread also made of synthetic hair or a different material? (I know the purple is synthetic hair) thanks for any replies....

Love this video, and that dread so beautiful! Thanks for sharing how to do this!!

whats the music in the background?

So making these! I'm going to be making a nice bright blue and black to go with some eyeshadow of mine! Thanks girl!

where do u get the hair from?

i have seen kanekalon at sally's but i've only seen natural colors there and while sometimes that's what i'm using, i mostly only use colorful colors so i don't buy from them.

from one bag of kanekalon you can get about 8-10 dreads about sharpie thickness

it's a dread HQ dread comb, if you just google 'dread comb' it'll be one of the first results

Sarah mcglouchlin what a toon!!

Loving the hardcore tunes!

AH! no come back!

CUTCO shears!

It's funny that you say you can't get the kanekalon hair at Sally's (a few comments down), because that's exactly where I got mine. It's a natural color, but still it came from there. Anyway, great tutorial! I'm gonna give these a try when my fun colors arrive. Thanks!

what kind of comb are you using to backcomb?

i've never tried using an iron, but with a flat iron one of the problems is that it can make the dread flat if you don't like twist it around the dread as your steaming so i imagine if you used an iron it'd just make the dread flat.

thanks :)

no one, i was just playing music in the background

thanks for sharing! it was so helpful!

thanks for sharing! very helpful!

Whos playin dance dance revolution?

would a clothes iron that also steams work?? like if it was set for the steam setting and you ran over it how you would a shirt or something??

Going to try these out, great tutorial. And an additional plus from the music!

I've notice only white people back comb dreadlocks

the brand i use is shark. there's different models. the handheld ones are convenient and the ones i prefer using to a stand up steamer. conair is also a good brand.

okay, thank you for the tips :3

online somewhere, just google dread comb and you'll find it ;)

yes, you can also use a wet cloth and flat iron method. you get a wet washcloth, drape it over the dread and then use a flat iron on the wet cloth, it steams the dread and works just as good, just takes a bit longer :)

I don't have a steamer. are there any substitutes?

Where on earth did you find that comb?

sweet!! i've been lookin for different types of dreads to make.

pet combs are pretty much the same...common and cheap at pet shops

for steaming if your not melting the end...how do you know when your done and it will stay?

with this type i only steam the end of the dread, ive never done the boil method but i have used a steamer (obviously lol) and a flat iron over a wet cloth. they both work great. flat iron method is a little more time consuming though

ur welcome :)

Thank you soo much for making this! Really useful tutorial, I've been looking for this forever.

Oh, the colour <3

you can get the hair at beauty hair supply stores (not sally's) or you can find it on various websites, google "kanekalon hair" and you will find lots of places to buy from

Where can you get the hair at? I know they come on bags but haven't had luck finding them. :/

ive never backcombed natural hair, sorry. although i've heard taking a really small crochet hook works really well to dread up your natural hair.

i want your room );

if your doing this with regular hair, do you need to put a rubber band at the roots or not

@octolink thanks! it's great for small parties :)

I love your place :)

I've never had success in steaming dreads. I typically boil. Would that be recommended with this type?
