Dreadlock extensions that will change your life! Improve hair health and SKYROCKET your confidence. Give yourself the gift of beautiful effortless hair.
Why dreadlock extensions? this is Ellies Story,
Ellie started making and selling dreads more-so by accident. She had always wanted dreads, but her hair was too thin, always breaking and never grew past her shoulders. Her confidence was shattered. After weeks of creating a solution, she made her first set of dreadlocks that easily braided into her hair. She instantly felt the confidence she was missing, and everyone else noticed it too. Standing taller and brighter,
her friends asked her to make them some. Little by little she's grown what you see DreadFull Hippie to be today. Handcrafted in Utah, USA, each dreadlock is carefully handmade to order.
Her small business has now helped over 20,000 women feel more confident in themselves.
Why these are considered a protective hairstyle? While wearing these, your hair will be braided 6+ weeks at a time. Braids are easily the most efficient style to protect your hair. Look at every Renaissance painting, all the woman have long, thick hair. You'll also notice often it is braided! You'll wake up feeling like a goddess and will cut your get-ready time in half because your hair is already done for the day. You'll keep your hair protected by not applying toxic products or using heat. No need for that because your hair is already flawless.
What can you NOT do with these? I haven't figured that out yet... You can swim with them, workout with them, ride motorcycles, let your baby pull on them without ripping out your PP baby hairs you've been working so hard to grow, camp with them (and look like a woodland fairy the entire time), skydive with them, wash them reuse them forever etc. etc.
What colors will look best on me? Some quick tips:
All the color combos look amazing, so take the pressure off yourself and know that whatever you decide will look amazing.
Does Gold Jewelry look good on you? You're most likely warm toned. These colors as bases (a majority of the packs will look good on you): Caramel Blonde, Medium Blonde, Light Blonde, Dark Brown, Auburn, Chocolate Brown, Syrup Brown, Warm Caramel Melt
Does Silver Jewelry look good on you? You're most likely cool toned. Use these colors as a base: Platinum Blonde, Sandy Blonde, Ash Brown, Sandy Blonde Melt, Almond Melt, Toffy, Silver Grey
If you wear both Gold and Silver, awesome! The world is your oyster as you're most likely a mix of both warm and cool toned just like Ellie :)
We've had brunettes wear blonde dreads, blondes wear brunette dreads, red heads wear platinum blondes, and platinum blondes wear reds.

How do I install them? We'll send you an install video with your order of dreads, or you can find it: "Dallas and Ellie McGee" on Youtube. It's just a traditional 3 piece braid to install them. Ellie taught Dallas how to install them the day they got back from their honeymoon. Since then, he has installed her dreads many times on her and on hundreds of other women! Show your hairstylist the install video so they can learn, or bribe your sister to come over with pizza. You can also install these on yourself and you'll only improve on each install.
How long do they last? Ellie's first set is from 2016 and are STILL in perfect condition even after wearing them a majority of the last 10 years. We're convinced these dreads will live longer than you. We handcraft them to last. And we even back it with a lifetime guarantee of any dread maintenance you may need!

2. Color of dreads may differ per batch due to our wholesaler. We suggest purchasing all your dreads at once to avoid difference in color from dye batches.
For Celtic dreads you will need to brush out the ends to maintain the whispy ends, low heat can be used on them! Straightener, curling iron etc.
I love all of my dreads from Dreadfullhippie, but these ones just hit different! I used to bleach and dye my hair frequently and pink was one of my favorite colors. I started to get that itch to destroy my hair again, but chose wisely and got these beauties! They are so perfectly made, soft, easy to install and the confidence gain is unmatched. Mixed with the blush melt, the overall look is *chef's kiss*.
I am absolutely obsessed with these dreads! The pink is a whole vibe & I just finally feel complete & so confident within myself. I can't wait to get more colors!😍✨️🩷
I bought 3 sets to wear as partials as I have always wanted dreads but could never convince myself to do it. Well let me say these things are awesome. I decided to make the leap as I broke my hand last year and had to cut my hair to manage the length better. Since then I have been trying to grow my hair; the cut left all the hair underneath shorter than on top which has made it hard to get it out of the way. These dreads have really helped with that and should (based off what I've read) help me with growth and protecting my hair. I picked the rose, sandy blonde melt, and the peach melt and they go so well together!
I could not be more in love with this company or the way it makes me feel. I never knew something so simple could make me feel so different and so much more like myself.
This pink mixed well with the glitter pink bundle. If you’re a girl who loves pink as much as I do, you’ll love this. The hair is so silky to the touch. No itchy irritation after install
I purchased 9 packs in all different colors. They are beautiful and I love the way they all fit together so well. We had a bit of a time learning how to secure them into my hair but they're perfect now. 🥰
I’m obsessed with the addition of the dusty pink color to my red dreads! I feel like strawberry ice cream in the best way! (Wedding wrap for bonus detail!)
I have always been one to do some different things with my every since High School and by far this is my favorite.
DH has helped me feel good about myself. I haven't felt this good in a long time. I have had so many compliments. With all the different colors it's hard to decide what's next.
Thank You Dreadful Hippie Family
My absolute most favorite color in the world!!! I'm soooo happy to have pink hair that won't fade and looks amazing!!! Thank you DH for this absolutely amazing pink hair phenomenon!!!
Love my little pops of color!! I ordered these later on after having mostly blonde and have just replaced some of mine with these! Love em! Don’t be afraid to change it up!
