Bubblegum Pink and Blonde Clip in Accents

I decided to have some fun with dying hair. I ordered some inexpensive pre-sewn 12" blonde clip-ins off of ebay, and highlighted them with Bubblegum Pink N Rage. I love how they turned out, although I suspect that the weft they were made from was NOT all human hair, but has a good amount of synthetic mixed in. Regardless, they're pretty and hold up to heat applications without melting. I used both my flat iron and curling iron on these -on the highest temperature settings, and had no problems.

These are still available! https://www.etsy.com/shop/NUCL3ARBUTT3RFLY








Better Pictures of My Multi-Colored Crochet Dreads

I took some better detailed photographs of these long (about 22-26") crochet dreads
(These pictures were taken under bright sunlight. The last photos were taken on a cloudy day.)

Dying Merino Wool Roving

I'm dying some merino wool roving. It was light creamy white to begin with. I'm using an acid dye soaking technique. It sounds more toxic than what it actually is... The acid is just plain white vinegar, and the dye is food coloring mixed with water.

The finished set is available here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/NUCL3ARBUTT3RFLY
Turquoise Blue/Green Mix



Lime Green / Neon Yellow Mix







Rinsed and almost completely dry
Soon I'll be making this into some lovely dreads
