We make beautiful hairstyles with dreadlocks

Dreadlocks, locks, or dreadlocks have been a popular way of braiding / tangling hair for a long time. There is no single subculture whose representatives would wear dreadlocks, although still more often the hairstyle is associated with the Rastafari movement. You don't have to be a reggae fan either to make your curls braided. This hairstyle is ancient, it can be called universal.

Dreadlocks always make an impression, and if a girl decided to transform herself in such a bright way, then even before weaving, she thinks about what options for hairstyles with dreadlocks exist.

This is the easiest way - to collect dreadlocks in a ponytail, which will turn out to be voluminous. It looks impressive if you have a beautiful face shape, and also if you want to draw attention to your ears (for example, wear spectacular earrings). Ponytail styling can be done using third-party accessories (elastic bands, scarves, ribbons, etc.) or using the dreadlocks themselves. Several dreadlocks can be twisted around the bulk of the hair and held together with invisibility.

Due to the huge volume, it is not always possible to make a reliable tail. Therefore, it is easier to divide your hair into 2 parts: fasten the top in a ponytail with twisting with other dreadlocks, the second part of the hair remains loose. Elastic bands with various inscriptions are also in fashion: if you belong to reggae culture, then Bob Marley quotes on elastic bands will emphasize this well.

If you are just getting used to dreadlocks, then braiding them in a braid will not be so easy. But over time, be sure to get the hang of it. Kos may be several. Or it will be one thick braid, which will have to be fastened with an elastic band. Another interesting option is to braid as many braids from dreadlocks as you can.Therefore, wrap each pigtail in a flagellum and secure with a hairpin. These hairstyles are often referred to as "alien". For a 90s aesthetic, this is perfect if you want to look like an MTV VJ.

And another option with pigtails:

• braid a braid from those dreadlocks that are located on the face;
• wrap your head obliquely, like a rim;
• Fasten the tip of the braid against the opposite ear.

Women's hairstyles with dreadlocks look great if you use satin ribbons for them - weave them in fragments, advantageously combining shades.

This look looks great on young girls (as well as those who feel like that). Beams are suitable for owners of long dreadlocks. Hair needs to be divided into 2 parts, upper and lower. The lower part remains unchanged, but the upper part should be halved. Twist each half into bunches and fasten in any way convenient for you: it's easier to do this with invisible elastic bands, hairpins, invisible ones.

If you want to stand out, take 2 small bright bandanas, twist them in thin strips, wrap each around the bun. Complement the image with other elements of the image: beautiful jewelry on the neck, bright earrings, tattoos, bracelets - all this will help to make the image whole.

Famous personalities often turned to the aesthetics of dreadlocks and in this image became even more recognizable. For girls, Rihanna showed good examples of original handling of dreadlocks. True, stars often use artificial dreadlocks, which are perfectly removable (we recall that real ones have to be cut off). Here are some examples for inspiration.

• Rihanna. The distinctive star has always used bright hairstyles. It was logical to see her with dreadlocks one day. If you are tired of your hair and want to cut it, you can try to make dreadlocks out of it first. Perhaps, in such an extravagant way, you will want to linger, and you will always have time to cut your curls. If you're not as decisive, look to synthetic dreadlocks.

• Irina Shayk. Beloved Bradley Cooper knows how to command the best catwalks in the world and, of course, men. Moreover, Irina does not go into the classics: she is not averse to hooliganism. It seems that such a bright image with colored dreadlocks added to the beauty of the Russian model even more mystery and sexuality. And if you also want to make a splash, appear at some event in an unusual way, see how Irina managed to do it.

• Lady Gaga. It is unlikely that the American star surprised anyone with such a transformation (she had countless vivid images), but one cannot fail to notice the option of ultra-long dreadlocks in the blonde style. In summer and winter, the hairstyle will make you draw attention to yourself.

• Daria Stavrovich. Lovers of dreadlocks could not ignore the example of the soloist of the "Slot" group. With this hairstyle, the vocalist looks harmonious, it seems that she was born with such hair. This is a great example for brunettes.

• Pink. The image is not the most relevant, but fashion tends to come back. Long-haired brunettes can be inspired by Pink's bully look. Not trite, sexy and very comfortable.

There are tons of great examples of dreadlocked hairstyles (and not necessarily stellar ones) on Pinterest. If 20 years ago dreadlocks were worn by girls from certain circles ("alternative women" or rock stars), today the female image with dreadlocks has become more democratic. The options for the design of the hairstyle are becoming brighter, the weaving is being played up more and more interestingly.

Punched up strands of hair are a big step. It is impossible to unravel and comb them, it is impossible to give your hair the same condition. You just have to cut, or rather, shave off your head.For this reason, many do not dare to join the ranks of dreadlock fans, but there is a way out. Artificial, mostly kanekalon strands are sold inexpensively, they are equipped with special clamps. You can buy multi-colored faux dreadlocks and try weaving them into your real hair.

Most often, high tails and "buns" are made with synthetic dreadlocks. The image is changing dramatically. If a photo session is waiting for you, and you have not thought about the image yet, pay attention to fake dreadlocks. Such family portraits look great: for example, if mom and daughters have done such hairstyles for themselves.

In the near future, there may be a new burst of fashion for dreadlocks. Judging by the messages in social networks, many fans of the work of Kirill Tolmatsky (Decl) are planning to make such a hairstyle. In memory of the early departed star, fans want to refer to the business card of his image - dreadlocks. Recall that Cyril made them in his youth and never gave up his hairstyle.

By the way, if dreadlocks began to touch the ground, in the culture of Rastafarinism this is considered a symbol of enlightenment. But even if you don't put philosophical implications into such a bright hairstyle, the very idea of ​​creating one is not bad. And if you're afraid of sudden changes, practice with fake dreadlocks. They are easy to weave, easy to take off, easy to transform. And already having worn them, you will understand whether such metamorphoses of your own hair are worth.
