I've been looking for this info for years and asking around with no luck. It seems to be a lost art. Thanks for commenting! :) Xicanindia, do you have photos or can you please, please tell us how you did the interlacing? I’ve been looking for this info for years and asking around with no luck.

Ours were much thinner, knotting and interlacing them was an art, and the girl with the most intricate design was badass, I had them all the way up to both elbows! The Target version are far too thick and would never lend themselves to the designs we used to make.

We chose two Chalino Sanchez and one No Doubt song for the jukebox. My advisor didn't know about No Doubt, so we told her about Gwen and the music and the chola style. The rant you linked too came up too, because my fellow grad student also hated that video. I need to get to work on my Halloween costume...
