I've been doing hair for BM since 2007, but have been making synthetic dreads since 2005. You'll find my dread wigs & falls for sale inside Prism Magic Company the month of August. My cards are inside The Melting Pot. I do custom orders & braid locally here in Reno. I charge $120 for dreads that are lower back length, $100 for mid back/boobie length, & $75 for shoulder length (Price includes braiding). I am also on Couchsurfers, so if you need a place to crash on your way to the playa, there should be room for ya.

When I do nothing with my hair (as opposed to obsessing on it) on the playa it dreads all by itself within 24 hours. I am not sure how acceptable it will be at my very conservative government job.. I know they can't fire me for my hair and as long as I keep the dreads neat and clean I think once they get over the initial surprise they'll forget about it. Then I have gone the other extreme and thought about choping off all my locks and going short spikey with color in the tips of some sort. Of course I could do both with the dreads first for a while (a few years) and then chop them off so the hair is short. Either way...I feel like it's a commitment of at least going short if I don't like the dreads..hence my hesitation on the whole idea. but ladies...I absolutely cannot wait to see all the hair fashion out there this year...it will be delightful to see!

I've had short hair, which was really the easiest to deal with, and just wore hats, bandanas and scarves. When it was longer, I braided it myself but took it out after a few days because the itching was driving me mad! This year, it will either be pretty short or long enough for pigtails, in which case I will probably make some falls. I wash my hair every 2-3 days with a pitcher of water and a plastic washtub on my knees. It feels GREAT and I always do it in the hottest part of the day so it cools me off. I spray on leave-on conditioner and cover it back up again.

I keep hearing how hot it is, and how disgusting you'll get, blah blah blah. I was thinking the more I tried to mess with my hair (weight, clips...ummmm ?) the worse it'd be. Plus, my hair's too short for add-ons. As far as I know. I have some super long yarn fall thingies, but my friend made them for me not knowing I'd cut my hair! (I used to have long hair, and lots of fun things to put in it. Then I cut it all off. And I'm growing out bangs. They should be reasonable by Sept.) I'm going to test run some dry shampooing (http://playabound.wordpress.com), but I'm definitely looking forward to all the fun stuff y'all do/put in your hair.

I wore my hair down, during the day simple braids and a hat. At night a wig sometimes, and others, put it up in little buns with wool dreads. So Much Better than having to deal with yarn wrapped braids! Granted, I LOVED LOVED LOVED my braids, because they were easy to wash, I didn't have to deal with hair tangles or anything, and they were super cute. But, it took tons of time, and expense pre and post playa, not to mention the stress on my scalp. So last year, I made some wool dreads and probably wore them half the time. This year I plan to make another set in other colors, and wear them again. I liked the freedom of not having my hair all bundled up during the day, but not having to fuss with it at night. Yup, I'm sold on the dreads. I didn't do the 'installed' dreads... mine were attached to a band so I could take them out easily and put them on anytime I wanted.

Adding in fake hair is what makes it itch. The trouble with corn rows on playa is that youre going to have to put sunscreen between each row, or get burned in the parts. Also, with corn rows, you will need to sleep with a silky do-rag to keep the rows from getting fuzzy. And of course, the day after you get rows done, you will feel like you had a facelift. I dont do them but I can recommend places that do.

You did a great job of installing mine last year, they didn't tug or pull at all. Also, they don't damage the hair, which rocked.

Plus the ones on my head, while gorgeous, were the kinky fake hair braid type, and it felt like sleeping on a jute rug. Yours look much much comfier. But I think I'll have to wait to go back to them after I'm through with menopause and hot flushes :) Sun, 05 Apr 2009 04:46:44 GMT http://burningwoman.tribe.net/thread/37c2f82b-033e-42c6-b398-e1aad0d34bf8#196e430c-0260-4e53-94c9-3d4443ca8e14 )'(Blysse 2009-04-05T04:46:44Z http://burningwoman.tribe.net/thread/37c2f82b-033e-42c6-b398-e1aad0d34bf8#0d58429f-1e6b-4d61-9783-ae3352a08c53 Shavin Mine, as usual, cuz I dont wanna mess with it... :) but IF I had hair I'd be braiding it...

This year, however, Im pretty much done with yarn braids, as I found a way better alternative. Wool dreads. Theyre lighter, easier to install, and can be customized really really cool. Plus, when youre done with the burn, take them out, and attatch them to a clip or scrunchie, and you have falls for all the parties you are going to go to for the rest of the year. And then next burn, I can put them back in. Im sitting around the house on maternity leave until the baby comes in May, so its a perfect time for me to get rolling on the dreads. If you want some, time to order them is NOW, because I wont be able to roll them once I have the baby.I will install them pre-burn week, but as far as making them, I need to get started now. Direct message me, and I will tell you where to get the materials, and where to have them sent. Pricing is 100$ to make the dreads, and another 100$ to install. But once you have the dreads, theyre yours to keep and re-use.
