    is it possible to make some dreads longer ( i have couple of really short ones and i can tie em back or anything, so i thought maybe there is a possibility of making my babys longer)

    i was thinking about making wraps for some dreads that are short and somehow use the wool and make em longer

    ok, messy post, i hope u understand what i mean

    you can make extensions with human hair (yakhair)

    i would just wait it out. Dreads teach you patience. Or, it might look a bit odd, but if you make a wrap with a thick string/yarn hanging off the end, you would proabbly be able to tie it back with the rest of your hair.

    you can wrap them with yarn and then braid some more off the end to make them longer, that works.

    you can always add extensions or something, but I would recommend just waiting for them to grow longer. Time is your friend.

    Your dreads will eventually become longer. Its inevitable. Just wait a couple of months and see what happens. But i can not give you advise how to make them longer with wraps or stuff like that

    my dreads are 1 year old, but with that growth i prolly need at least 2 more to get em as long as i need (those couple of shortys) so i thought about an alternative way :)
