What is a dreadlock extension?
Dreadlock extension originally referred to a way of braiding hair, a protective hairstyle, where the Afro kinky bulk (the same hair texture as African hair) is braided closely with your natural hair to get a fashionable look.
This hairstyle can also protect the natural hair and reduce friction with the outside world, maintain moisture, and reduce the frequency and time of washing and care.
The braided hair can last for two months.
To reasonably save hair braiding time and try more colors, it was produced as a hair extension product. Now dreadlock extensions are very popular and welcomed by people all over the world; they have become a representative of fashion culture.
