How many times have you watched this???.....Answer:YES. Memorization activated, also ASMR as hell. I do turn off the sound more relaxing. Just got everything I need in the mail. Going to start my set tomorrow.

I've bought a few pre made sets and just bought wool roving to try making my own, I plan on dying it before rolling and then rolling in a little of my rabbits fur (from brushing) into one of the locs so then people will be like why do you have a white patch and I'll just show them my 2 white rabbits (one is a lionhead so a lot of fur comes out on the weekly brush) I think its a cool idea and I tried rolling some of their fur after brushing today and I have a tiny 3 inch pure white loc🥺

You can totally just do it by hand without the mat! I’ve done that in the past, just make sure you look after your hands and take a break if they are sore. You can also use another towel, or I’ve even seen people use bubble wrap! Hope these options help

Do you know whether it matters what kind of sheep wool you use or is regular sheep wool good enough
@CyberDenna2 жыл бұрын
I usually buy merino sheep wool, but any sheep that has fibrous wool should work the same way. Acrylic yarn wouldn’t work because it doesn’t have the same fibres to knot together. But I imagine even alpaca wool would work!

For these dreads I filled 2 containers with hot water and added two different blue dyes, a dark blue for the roots and a lighter blue for the ends and I dipped the fold of the dreadlocks in the dark blue first, rinse the excess out of the dreads and then dipped the ends in the lighter blue and rinsed the excess.

How much wool do you use for a full set? How many double ended dreads do you make to finish a full set? I have long hair. How much would you recommend that I purchase?
@EncinaSevera2 жыл бұрын
O! And also, how much shampoo do you use and does it need to be a certain kind?
@CyberDenna2 жыл бұрын
I used maybe 200g of merino wool roving, but I only have a half head of dreadlocks. Also the amount you use will depend on how thick you want them and also how long. I had 28 double ended dreadlocks which was about a half head, but I do have slightly denser hair so I needed more for fuller coverage. The length of your hair doesn’t effect how many you buy, it is more dependant on how thick and dense it is. If you’ve got thinner/finer hair you can get less and if you have thick/dense hair you’ll need more to achieve a fuller look. I usually dilute some sulphate free shampoo with water when I wash my hair with them in and use an applicator bottle to apply just to the roots. But normally I remove them once a week to wash my hair and wash them separately and hang them to dry for a day and then put them back in. Still just using diluted shampoo and rinsing them very well.

Can I ask why the soap? What's the purpose and do you have to use it?
@CyberDenna2 жыл бұрын
From my experience it helps with roughing up the fibres of the wool so they lock together tighter. I think you would be able to do it without the soap, but I would recommend doing an ice bath between hot dips to encourage the fibres to lock together. Alternatively you could also use a felting needle to assist the locking process 🙂

What are you rolling them on in the beginning? The blue mat looking thing... I see ppl using towels to roll them on and that's not working for me and I wish I had a sushi roller thing but can't find one in my town yet. Lol
@CyberDenna Жыл бұрын
It's a towel wrapped (very tightly) around a board and clamped to my table! The clamps also help to keep the towel taut so it doesn't roll with the wool. But there are some loose threads on it that would get caught, so I would just rip them out of the towel, or cut them off so they wouldn't keep getting wrapped around the dreads.

whats the water color method to color.. and why do you have to boil them so many times
@CyberDenna4 жыл бұрын
For the water colour method I used two containers with hot water and added hair dye to the water and then dipped the dreadlocks into the darker blue first and then the lighter blue. It just uses less hair dye to colour the dreadlocks than having to paint the dye on. The reason for putting them in hot water between rolling them is to help the fibres felt together, the hot water makes it easier, and rinsing in cold and hot alternating helps shock the fibres into locking together better for longer lasting dreadlocks.

What kind of shampoo do you use
@CyberDenna2 жыл бұрын
I usually use a clarifying shampoo or a volumising one! Anti-dandruff also would be good, but I'd stay away from hydrating ones because you want to rough up the fibers as much as possible :)

I have yarn roving, could I use that for this method or does it have to be wool roving
@CyberDenna4 жыл бұрын
As long as it is pre-spun and is not an acrylic base it should I work. I haven’t personally used yarn roving so I’m not 100% sure, sorry. The main thing with felting is that it is matting the natural fibres together, and I believe acrylic and man-made fibres are too smooth to knot up and felt correctly.

About how long do these take to make?
@CyberDenna3 жыл бұрын
It’s usually a few hours depending on the length and thickness of the dreadlocks! I try to take breaks while rolling so my back doesn’t get too sore, and also to get fresh water. The longest part is waiting for them to dry, I usually leave them overnight and sometimes they’ll still be damp in the morning! But I’d say the rolling process is maybe around 3 hours give or take?
