When it comes to rerooting your hair, there are a few different ways that you can go about doing it. One option is to purchase a pre-made hair rerooting tool, which can be found online or at some beauty supply stores. Another option is to make your own hair rerooting tool using some simple materials that you likely already have around the house. If you're interested in learning how to make your own hair rerooting tool, read on for some easy instructions.
The first step is to gather your materials. For this project, you'll need a sharp pair of scissors, a thin knitting needle or crochet hook, and some strong thread or fishing line. Once you have all of your supplies together, tie one end of the thread or fishing line around the base of the needle or hook. This will create a handle for you to hold onto while working.
Next, carefully snip off a small section of hair from wherever you'd like to start rerooting. The section should be no wider than the diameter of the needle or hook that you're using. Once you've snipped off a section of hair, threaded it through the needle or hook so that the cut end is poking through the other side.
Now, simply start twisting the needle or hook in order to coil the piece of hair around it. As you twist, be sure to keep tension on the thread or fishing line so that the coil stays tight and doesn't come undone. Continue twisting and coiling until you've reached your desired length - typically 3-5 coils will do the trick! Finally, tie off the end of the coil with another piece of thread or fishing line and trim any excess hairs so that they're even with the rest of your new dreadlock!
