Admittedly, my dreads aren't too bad. I've wanted them for years and finally I have them, and apart from the occasional "are those supposed to be dreads?!" comments the reception is alright. But, I'm a little fussy. I've got some loose hairs going on as a lot of us here do. Some are pretty major. I bought myself a crochet needle, after being told how to crochet dreads breifly, and have tried fixing them up but sometimes I think I'm a bit special :drool: I was wondering if anyone had advice or links to sites with advice (and videos would be super dooper too! but if not nevermind...) on how to crochet loose hairs into a dread? Thanks for your time.
Yeah man, it does take forever. I found it difficult to find what I needed, let alone anything detailed enough to help me. I can't look at it now (college) but I will later. Cheers bud.
yo, have a friend help you because its really hard to fix it on your own, at least I found it difficult to do it on my own.
just stab the dread repetativly with the hook and it will catch the hairs.. there really is no art to it
well its really simple but I dont know its kind of hard to do it on my own because I think my had turns slightly at some point because the hook just gets stuck inside the dread and I have to wiggle it out of there without grabbing anything.
i think i can see why some of you are having a hard time with crocheting.... in the video they are using a latch hook, not a crotchet hook. a latch hook has an extra piece that closes when you pull it back through so it doesnt get caught up
actually thats the same hook I have, the problem is its just hard to do it, I think my hand slightly turns or something without me noticing. When i got one of my friends to do it she did it easily.
