  • Very light when compared with synthetic dreads of the same length, size and number.

  • That is great to hear! If you have any pictures, link them! I would love to see them!

  • It depends on how many you need for your head and how long. I say a pound is a good general estimate, but you may need more or less.

  • nice idea with the tutorial but the time left to read the tutorial is way too short - no real fun watching the vid if you can't read it all and have to pause the time, it takes away the flow:(

  • @jirihozpodebrad23 Okay.... use the information or dont... no skin off my nose.

  • Fix them? I am not sure what you mean by this? Fixation? Well, the wool felts to the other wool fibers, binding them together when you are palm rolling them with the soap and hot water... like if you put a wool sweater through the wash.

    I got mine out of my hair just fine. After a while, they will start to felt to your natural hair (because all hair can felt... or dread... it is the same process. Some things just felt/dread easier than others) but it takes a while.
