THE LOOK: These extensions are made with both a backcomb and twist method. Whilst the twist is still evident, the backcombing does texturise the hair. If having the extensions look exactly like real, natural dreadlocks is important to you, then you may want to consider our Crocheted extensions. The Synthetic Crocheted Extension can also be braided into undreaded hair.

HOW MANY EXTENSIONS WILL I NEED? As they are braided into sections of your own hair which are usually 2-3cm's squared at the scalp, how many you need really depends on how big your head is. On average 50 is about right but if you want a lot of volume you could make the sections smaller and likewise, if you wanted less volume then you could use bigger sections of hair. 

CARE: Our extensions will last indefinitely and just like real dreads, some maintenance may be required from time to time. As they are braided into sections of your own hair, as your own hair grows out, every 6-12 weeks they will need to be removed and reinstalled. The extension can be re-tightened and re-twisted using steam in conjunction with a hair straightener. Take care in doing so and refer to our website for comprehensive installation and care instructions.

 When shampooing, focus on just your scalp and massage the shampoo in gently while handling the dreadlocks with care, then rinse out. Pat your scalp dry then careful wrap your extensions in a towel to squeeze out excess water.
