Talking Synthetic Hair

Hey I've just finished making curly rexlace accents for my festival dreads, and I was wondering if anyone else dabbles in synthetic hair and/or dreads?

I have synth or wool dreads put in for Download Festival every year, and I love how versatile they are!!

This year i've got a blonde, lilac and darkest brown set, with lavender curly rexlace They're beautiful

Oh wow

I wish I could live in synthetic hair! But I have to wait until festival season to put these in i'm job hunting at the moment and I don't think potential employers would appreciate purple hair hehe

Here they are;



I think thats the right code anyway... the purple is actualy a really bright lilac but the light is shining on them funny

That looks like the "crepe" hair that we use to do beard laying... obviously not same colours, but the texture looks the same.

Hmm, I don't know what that is lol, but those dreadlocks are made from 'kanekalon jumbo braid' which is just like hair, but made from plastic, and it's also slightly crimped to make it easier to backcomb
