DIY Human Hair Dread Extension Kit, includes 100gm weft

We are thrilled with the quality of this hair! Unlike many other human hair wefts on the market, the thickness of this hair is maintained down the entire length. There is no breakage, thinning or brittleness which is commonly found in hair wefts. Please note that the Blonde attracts a higher cost due to the expense of producing these lighter shades. This kit also includes your must have extension making tools being the Dread Dust, Comb and 0.6mm Crochet Hook.

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.
