 Wool Dreads

If your looking for extensions, colour, texture and fun these are really your answer. Wool Locs are amazingly luxurious soft and weightless.

They can be added in numerous ways and last a long time in fact they mature just like true dreads and look more and more authentic.

Wool Locs love to be washed and yes whilst wet can seem heavy but unlike all other dreads one can ‘wring’ them out till almost dry.

Applications are numerous extensions crocheted into the end of your dreadlocks, braided in as a temporary wear or used as a thickener and added to the root base.

The only maintenance required is to the join area when used as extensions at the 8-12 month mark to the join area. Where we simply and quickly felt more wool into the join area for a sturdy result.

The picture below, a braid in loc shows an instant change in three hours with absolutely no commitment and worn for two months.
