Lay the extension in between the two bundles and make sure the half way point of the extension is at the top of the section. Split your hair in half so you have two bundles. Now take a section of hair and one extension.

Our Heavy Duty Pro Elastic is the perfect band to secure the braid and extension in place as they are strong and durable yet still small and slimline.Дў. The video below demonstrates a braid known as a Blanket Stitch.

Braid the extension together with your own hair as far down as you can and secure it with a thread or elastic. You may also want to consider applying a small amount of Dread Dust to the section of your own hair as this will texturize the hair and give you something to grip on to.Д¤.

Avoid conditioning your hair just before installing as it will make your hair soft and slippery and difficult to make the braid tight. Split the section of your own hair in two so that along with the extension, you will have three pieces to braid or plait. Push the extension right up to your scalp.ДЈ. The Latch Hook makes pushing the section of your own hair through the loop easy. Now take a section of hair and push it through the loop at the top of the extension. If you want less volume, you can make the sections bigger and vice versa, if you want more volume and more dreads then make the sections a little smaller.Дў. You may wish to pre plan the sections by tieing pro elastics around each bundle of hair. Each dread needs to be installed in a section of hair which is about 2cm squared at the scalp.
