We can all agree that dreads are simply gorgeous and thankfully here to stay. However, finding the right blend of a realistic dreadlock and a light fibre is difficult.

Added bonus: the Jozi Dred is crochet friendly and available in three solid colours.

Darling has brought back this classic protective style with a few improvements. The fibre isn’t as shiny as it used to be.

It’s also softer, more natural-looking and available in five shades. This fibre is also great for crocheting.
