-The first method involves crocheting new dreadlocks into the existing ones, creating length from shorter hair.
-The second solution is braiding: single or double-ended dreadlocks are braided into your own hair to secure them.
Q: How should I imagine synthetic dreadlocks?
A: Just like my work made from human hair, as the technique is the same.
-
Q: Is the difference between the two visible?
A: Not really. It's very hard to tell the difference by eye. In terms of texture, there are differences, but they are minor.
-
Q: What is the difference between real hair and synthetic?
A: The most important thing is that synthetic hair CANNOT be dyed and cannot be undone, unlike human hair. Synthetic extensions may feel stiffer during the first three weeks, but they soften with use.
-
Q: Can I wash and dry them the same way?
A: The materials we use for synthetic dreadlocks go through rigorous tests (washing, drying, and even exposure to open flames). After these tests, I can confidently say they behave just like regular dreadlocks.
-
Q: Any tips or advice?
A: If you source synthetic extensions from elsewhere, be sure to test their resistance to washing and drying before application. Not all synthetic hair can withstand high heat—it may shrink or melt (based on extreme test experiences). Also, always avoid open flames! 😊
!!Attention!! The results of our open flame tests... well, let's just say they didn't exactly pass with flying colors. Therefore, we strongly discourage you from conducting your own open flame experiments—unless you're aiming for a smoke cloud instead of stylish locks! 😄
Q:What is braided dreadlock hair?
A:Braided dreadlock hair is a hair extension technique where synthetic or natural hair extensions are woven into existing hair to achieve longer, fuller, or more colorful results.
-
Q: What types of hair extensions are used?
A:Natural hair: More durable, offers a natural look but is more expensive. Synthetic hair: Cheaper, available in various colors and styles.
-
Q: How long does braided dreadlock hair last?
A: On average, 3-6 weeks. This may vary depending on hair growth and washing frequency.
-
Q: How to wash braided dreadlock hair? How often?
A: Shampoo Selection: Use a clean, sulfate-free shampoo to avoid residue buildup in the dreadlocks.
Apply shampoo directly to the scalp and gently massage with your fingertips.
Try to avoid applying too much shampoo directly onto the dreadlocks themselves.
Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water, especially inside the dreadlocks, to ensure no shampoo remains. Frequency: Generally, washing every 1-2 weeks is sufficient to prevent excessive frizz.
PS: Drying: Hair drying may take longer. Use a soft towel to absorb excess water, then let it air dry or use a blow dryer on low heat.
Important note: Braided hair requires more frequent maintenance than dreadlocks, which involves unbraiding and re-braiding the strands regularly.
