Our dreadlock extensions are crafted from 100% virgin human hair, ensuring they are soft, healthy, and of the highest quality. They are clean, full, thick, and lightweight, with no strange smell. You can trust in their comfort and natural appearance.

If you like it softer, you can try soaking the loc in warm water with apple cider vinegar, baking soda or shampoo for 5-10 minutes, then rinse with clean water and air dry naturally.

Loc extensions can last for quite a while, depending on the care and maintenance they receive.

Loc extensions are added to existing hair by wrapping and then often crocheting the extension around the person's natural hair or an existing loc. Over time, as your natural hair grows and intertwines with the extension, the loc becomes more secure. Regular maintenance, including tightening the locs, washing, and moisturizing, is crucial for extending their life.

As for permanent installation, it's a bit of a nuanced topic. Technically, loc extensions can be considered permanent in the sense that they are meant to be a long-lasting hair solution, integrating with your natural hair. However, because your hair continues to grow and the extensions do not, you'll need to maintain them regularly. The idea of "permanency" with loc extensions is more about the extensions being a long-term commitment rather than something you cannot remove. If desired or necessary, loc extensions can be professionally removed, but the process can be time-consuming and may require cutting out the extension, which might also result in cutting some of the natural hair.

In essence, while loc extensions can be a long-term, durable hair styling option that mimics the appearance and feel of naturally grown locs, calling them "permanent" is more about their lasting capability rather than an irreversible process.

The number of loc extensions needed for a full head varies significantly based on several factors:

1. The Thickness of the Locs: The thicker each loc extension, the fewer you will need. Conversely, if you prefer thinner locs, you'll need more of them to cover the entire head.
2. The Density of Your Natural Hair: People with denser hair may require more loc extensions to blend naturally with their hair, while those with finer or thinner hair might need fewer extensions.
3. The Desired Fullness: If you're aiming for a very full look, you'll need more extensions. A more moderate or natural density will require fewer.
4. Head Size and Scalp Coverage Area: Naturally, the size of your head and the amount of scalp you're looking to cover with loc extensions will affect the total number needed.
5. The Size of the Loc Extensions: The size refers to the diameter of the extensions. Small-sized loc extensions (about the size of a pencil) are a common choice and require more extensions to cover the head. Medium to large-sized loc extensions will need fewer pieces.

On average, for small to medium-sized loc extensions, people often use anywhere from 70 to 120 loc extensions for a full head. For larger loc extensions, you might need between 40 and 80. These ranges are very approximate, and the exact number can vary outside these estimates based on the individual's specific hair and desired outcome.

To get a precise count and ensure the best outcome, it's highly recommended to consult with a professional who specializes in loc extensions. They can provide a tailored estimate based on your hair's unique characteristics and your desired look. During a consultation, they can assess your hair's density, your scalp's condition, the desired size of the locs, and any other personal preferences you may have to give you a more accurate number.

To maintain and wash your Dreadlock Extensions effectively:

1. Start by gently washing the dreadlocks with lukewarm water. It's important not to soak the extensions for an extended period.
2. Apply a sulfate-free shampoo to cleanse your dreads. Allow the shampoo to sit on the locs for about 1-2 minutes to ensure thorough cleaning.
3. Rinse the shampoo out using lukewarm water. Carefully squeeze the water from the dreads to remove excess moisture, but avoid rubbing them with a towel to prevent frizz and damage.
4. After washing, pat your scalp and locs dry with a towel. Ensure not to rub your hair with the towel as this can lead to frizz.
5. Allow your dreadlocks to fully dry before styling or applying any products. Never style or add product to damp or wet dreads to avoid mildew and odor.
6. For maintenance, consider using a conditioner specifically designed for dreadlocks if needed, and apply a moisturizing mist to keep your dreadlock extensions shiny and smooth.

Following these steps will help keep your dreadlock extensions clean, healthy, and looking great, while also maintaining the health of your natural hair and scalp.
