    so im thinking i might want to attach the old dreads that i cut off two years ago to my current dreads. that would be sick. my old dreads measure almost a foot and a half and my hsir now is a foot long, so my hair would be super long. also, my old hair is mostly auburn from me dying it ages ago. it would look so cool.
    does anyone have any tips or experiences to share?
    edit-
    oh yeah also, how would i go about doing this?

    the best way is crocheting. comb out the tips of your current locks and comb out the upper part of the old dreads. Just kinda weave (is that the right word?) the loose hair through the locked hair. If you don't want them to fall out, you'd better put some rubber bands around them (don't use the sticky ones :p).
