We've tracked down the best type of human hair for dreadlock extensions! It is free of breakage, brittleness and does not taper out thinly like much of the hair on the market does. This kit includes a 100gm weft which is enough to make between 20 - 45+ extensions PLUS your extension making must haves - Dread Dust, Dread Comb & Dreading Crochet Hook.
Purchasing a weft and making your own extensions gives you more control over the length and width and allows you to create the perfect match to blend in with your existing dreads.
HOW MANY DREADS WILL I GET: How many dreads you end up with will be determined by how thick you make the dreads but you'll likely be able to produce somewhere between 10-30 or so.
LENGTH OF WEFT: The length of the hair is approximately 40cm / 16" long. The exact technique you use to make the dreads will determine how much shrinkage you will get but expect to loose about a quarter to a third of the length. If you want the extension longer than what the length of the weft will produce, then you can always add more hair as you go to increase the length. Do this by cutting small bundles of hair from the weft and adding it to the dread as you work your way down the length backcombing and then crocheting.
REPAIRING & THICKENING EXISTING DREADS: In addition to making your own extenders, the weft can also be used to thicken existing dreads or reinforce and repair sections of your dreadlocks which have thinned out.
COLOUR: Being human hair, these extensions can be coloured and we suggest testing the colour on a small area to ensure you are happy with the results. Each persons hair will produce a slightly different result and keep in mind also that human hair goes through a chemical sanitation process which may effect colouring results. We recommend seeking advice from a hair salon or colour specialist for best product and process recommendations based on the colour you wish to achieve. We also recommend against lightening. Please note, that we only accept returns if extensions are unused and in their original packaging.
