Do you have thin spots needing repair or do you want to tackle your own extensions? We stock human hair wefts either available on their own or as part of a kit with the Dread Dust + Crochet Hook + Dread Comb. It took us years to track down hair of this quality. Most wefts thin out terribly as you move down the length and the hairs brittle - this is the best quality hair we have found and is perfect for dreadlock making ❤️ available www.dreadlocks.com.au #dreads #dreadlock #humanhair #dreadlockextensions #realhair #realdreads #dreadextensions #dreadempire #dreadlocksdaily #dreadlockstyle #dreadlockstyles

I hope you are all hanging in there during this crazy time. We want to reassure you that we remain open for business and are continuing to dispatch all orders within 1 business day. So far, for the most part our parcels are still arriving within the regular delivery time frames but there is potential for some delays due to the significant amount of flights which have been cut. Cargo planes still continue to operate between countries and Australia Post are working with partner airlines and other postal services to keep items moving quickly. Our heart goes out to all those effected, be it economically or health wise. Best wishes to everyone during these trying times ❤️ #dreadempire #dreads #dreadlocks #locs #dreadlocksdaily #dreadlockstyles #organichaircare #essentialoils #dreadlockstyle #dreadproducts

@mommys_got_lash rocking our swim cap ❤️ it took years of researching various silicone options and experimenting with design to create our swim cap range which is unlike any other long hair cap on the market. Here is a review we received yesterday: 10/10 ALETIA Happy Hair and Swimming Freedom! I love my Dread Cap. My hair was getting so heavy when I was swimming and I love to swim. Getting it wet every day through summer meant my hair was also never drying completely. The Dread Cap means that my hair now gets to dry out properly even though I am swimming every day. I have used my Dread Cap at both the swimming pool and the beach. I may have bought it a little bigger than I needed and did worry that the ‘air bobble’ might cause problems when I dived doing snorkeling but, it has all been awesome. Tracking on postage was comforting and it arrived very promptly with a lovely hair band gift inside too! Totally recommend this product - I love it and have already been sharing this with dread folks that I meet in the surf! Get a cap and keep swimming friends! #dreadlocks #dreads #locs #afrohair #afroswimmers #longhair #curlyhair #naturalhairstyles #naturalhair #swimming #dreadlockstyles #dreadlockstyle #dreadempire

Happy New Year 🥳 we’re starting the year with a clean up of old stock. We have a large bundle of Backcombed & Twisted single ended dreads added to the Seconds listing. 10 pack only $11.95 AUD! These are much looser than our regular stock but the upside to that means that they’re super soft, flexible and very light.
