[@ChristinaSandersFierceGlamMom]

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

[@joanthemad5894]

Thank you so much for this. I recently started making dreads and was wondering how you do a puffy one that want going to unravel itself

[@youwillbow2me]

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

[@ierrose49]

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 did you get your steamer from? And I been looking on how to do this right, so thanks for posting up for video

[@peaceandgeek]

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

[@chenkawaii2996]

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

[@vailismyname]

lovin the colours

[@RockabillyRetroMomma]

Where did you get that comb, I've been trying to find a proper metal comb for backcombing

[@SugarRush95]

YESSSSS THE HAPPY HARDCORE IN THE BACKROUND!!!!

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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.

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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 :)

[@Vampkiki]

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

[@1stedog]

Loving the hardcore tunes!

[@XXfaithlaineXX]

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??

[@kirstend9390]

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....

[@mehXyaXmeh]

They're both kanekalon hair

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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

[@MyDecayingWonders]

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

[@PrincexLuna]

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

[@WickedThePureEvil]

Oh, the colour

[@PrincexLuna]

okay, thank you for the tips :3

[@Letum113]

Where on earth did you find that comb?

[@raccoonlover7]

where do u get the hair from?

[@p0nyexpr3ss]

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!

[@Vampkiki]

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

[@1stedog]

Sarah mcglouchlin what a toon!!

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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.

[@mehXyaXmeh]

@DonyaKnick i know that daggirl has a tutorial on this too but it's kinda hard to see cuz it's not as up close so i decided to do a close up one! :D glad i could help you out!

[@stephenspencer8356]

whats the music in the background?

[@Holly-Cinogen]

shit, after all this time I have found it kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWakkndpdpykgtU

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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.

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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

[@mehXyaXmeh]

@XvilleXgerardXbertX no problem :) i'm happy to help!

[@mehXyaXmeh]

@RockabillyRetroMomma i got it online somewhere, can't remember, but if you just google "dread comb" it should be in the first page of results. that's how i found it lol

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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

[@mehXyaXmeh]

@SadisticCottenCandy i got my steamer at bed bath and beyond. it's a shark handheld, it's a little pricy and lasted JUST over a year, there's other ones that you can buy though that are cheaper. :)

[@mehXyaXmeh]

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