Thread: Big hair/dreads like Michelle Campbell's

I need the big hair / dreads that Michelle Campbell is wearing in that video. There's more to what she's got on her head than what most of the tribal fusion performers wear. Where do I get such?

I'd try Etsy. Just search "belly dance hair falls" and you'll get pages & pages of stuff.

If I recall correctly, either most or all of that was her real hair.

I loved her hair too! :-)

But if you want a big ol' dreadfall look, volume-wise, like she has - you just need a bun or something underneath to provide oomphy lift. Like a bumpit, but I probably wouldn't use that with dreads, it does catch.

As for the dreads, you can make 'em yourself from Kanekelon Yaki hair, or buy them.

Do you want that hair full time (off stage, too), or for a particular performance? If you want the look for a short period of time, you might look into getting a wig and adding decorative hair falls to it to get up to that much bulk (and make sure you receive professional instruction in how to wear that much stuff on your head so it doesn't fall off while you're dancing). If you're looking to make a lifestyle choice to have that kind of hair, then you need to find a stylist who specializes in dreads and weaves.
