Short 15" SE Crochet Dreads... Purple/Turquoise/Black/Aqua

I just completed this lovely set of twelve 15" Crochet Dreads. There are eight that are a darker Purple/Black with Aqua/Turquoise and four that are a brighter, mostly Turquoise and Aqua.

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.)

Multi-Colored Synthetic Crochet Dreads

Here is a set of crochet dreads that I've started. They are made from blended kanekalon hair.

Hand Dyed Wool Dreads

Merino wool double-ended dreads. I hand dyed these using non-toxic acid dyes. The colors range from a deep burgundy/purple to pale periwinkle blue and aqua.

Kanekalon Curls

I've been making some pretty little pastel and black colored kanekalon curls... I'm not entirely sure what I'll be doing with them, but it will be fun! I'm thinking of mixing these shorter curls with some of my hand-made krinklepuff style marley braid.

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.

Turquoise Blue/Green Mix

Lime Green / Neon Yellow Mix

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