-How to determine length & and where to install-
Dreadlocks are bulky in nature and therefore will be slightly bulgy when installed. Most people install around ear level around the head. This is the ideal area if you would like to conceal the bulk of the dreadlock. To determine length you will want to measure from the point at which you would like to attach the extension (ear level) to where you want the extensions to fall. Please view our video tutorial for further information.
Thickness: Approx. 6-12mm unless otherwise requested
Length: Your choice up to 26". Length may not be exact, but should be within 1" +/- of requested length. Choose "Custom Varied" if staggered lengths are desired. Leave length requests in personalization box (ex. 10-15"). *If no length requests are left with your order we will automatically send varied lengths of 12-16"
----------------------------------------------------------
Installation: Can be attached by way of braiding, weaving, bobby pinning, etc. For info on how to install into existing dreadlocks please see our Installation & Care Guide link below *See our video tutorial for braiding method and clip demonstration

Top End Finish: Braiding Loop, or Weft Clips
-Braiding Loop- This is the most natural looking installation. It is a semi-permanent method of installation, but can also be installed and removed on a daily basis if desired.This method can remain installed for up to 3 months, or with the natural growth of hair. Extensions can be re-installed over and over again. *Our extensions come as the braiding loop unless the clip option is selected.
-Weft clips- professional hair extension clips, similar to snap barrette clips, but having “teeth” for a more secure installation. They allow for quick and easy installation for daily on and off wear.

**PLEASE LEAVE ANY CUSTOMIZATION CHOICES IN THE PERSONALIZATION BOX**
COMMON QUESTIONS:
1. Can I get them wet? A: Absolutely! You can wash them as you would your normal hair. Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools they may lighten the the dye and hair wraps over time. We do recommend that all charms and/or beads are removed prior to water exposure. Please also keep in mind that similarly to wool clothing shrinking in a hot washing cycle, wool dreads may shrink when exposed to hot water over an extended period of time. For further care information please go to our site below
2. Do I have to have dreadlocks to wear these? A: Nope! You can add them to existing dreadlocks, or you can braid, clip, or weave them into normal hair. View our tutorial on how to add them to normal hair. http://youtu.be/LYb7w4_DrRk
