Different types of synthetic fibers
Because many factories and brands sell fiber under the wrong name, it is important to know what you are buying.
At Dreads&Frutsels we have had a lot of work over time to find honest manufacturers, and to source and label all fibers as what they really are. Below you will find a summary of the types of fibers you will encounter.
Keep in mind that not all fiber types will be available from the start, and a lot of attention will be paid to a wider range in the near future.
​
Dreadlocks can be found in many shapes and sizes, and you will find different types of hair in my range.
Each type of hair gives a different dreadlock, and there is a lot of variation in that.
I personally love to mix and match between this variety, to create the most beautiful and real dreadlock for me.
Some considerations you can make when ordering hair are for example;
- do you want a stiff or soft dreadlock?
- do you want a dreadlock with with long loose ends at the bottom, or not.?
- Are you going to braid the hair, or are you just using it for dreadlocks?
-Do you want to be able to steam (seal) the hair?
​
Each type of hair provides a different look.
The following points are described for each type of hair fiber in the webshop
number of grams
length
material
type coarse or soft to the touch
