Yes I have a question. Your dreads look great. But would you happen to make dreads using the synthetic hair of a wig? Because I own a wig, but hate how it looks, and I think it would look a lot better if there were dreads in it. So I was just wondering if you happened to have any tips for doing dreads in sythetic hair that is already mounted on a wig.

ok ok ok, I know you can do this with yarn, is it the same process? and can you put them in short-ish hair, like down to your shoulders? if so, do they have to be the same length as your hair, or can they be longer?
