These dreadlock extensions are long and natural looking. Muted color without shine. The dark brown will look great dressed up with some jewelry. I washed them and they take a lot of rinsing. Hair is packed really densely. The loop at the top is small and easy to work with. Threading your hair in between is a challenge since they are not that hollow, but if you leave ends loose it is easier. I love the loose ends; I hate blunt ends. Very natural. I suggest getting 3 or more packs for a full head since these are skinny. I am gonna make due to 2 packs since I don't like a lot of hair. These are heavy when wet, so watch your edges. Overall, great hair. I love it.
