Why the Burlap Shade Works

The Burlap shade brings a warm, natural earth tone that enhances dreadlock texture without competing with existing base colors. Unlike overly bright or artificial browns, this muted brown stays visually balanced and feels harmonious with most hair tones.

When felted with a fine crochet needle, this hair anchors securely into existing dreadlocks. The natural undertones remain stable under various lighting conditions, avoiding unwanted shifts in hue. This makes the shade especially useful for stylists and clients seeking natural-looking depth and dimensional warmth.

This earthy tone subtly enhances dreadlocks by adding visual interest and texture without drawing attention away from the overall hairstyle.

How to Use 8-D Burlap Hair (Crochet Method)

Sectioning and Preparation:
Start by sectioning off a small strand of hair where the accent, extension, or repair will be placed.

Crochet Felting:
Using a 0.5–0.75 mm crochet needle, gently felt the Burlap hair into the dreadlock strand until it integrates securely into place.

Shape Refinement:
Once integration is complete, palm-roll the area with moderate pressure to refine shape and compact texture. Maintaining even tension improves integration and helps protect scalp comfort.

Creative Placement:
For symmetrical accents, place brown highlights on both sides of the head. For color layering or gentle transitions, arrange burlap tones from mid-lengths toward ends to create cohesive color movement.

Routine Maintenance:
Wash dreadlocks with a residue-free, color-safe shampoo. Allow them to air dry naturally. During regular upkeep sessions, tighten or palm-roll the colored sections to preserve texture and smooth integration.

Durability & Care

Compared with synthetic alternatives, natural human hair dreadlocks made with Burlap hair felts faster, behaves more predictably, and avoids artificial sheen. The texture remains robust through multiple wash cycles and routine palm-rolling.

To preserve the natural warmth and clarity of the Burlap tone:
• Wash with cool to lukewarm water to minimize pigment loss.
• Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners designed to support longevity.
• Avoid heavy oils or buildup at the base, as this can reduce color clarity.

Natural human hair allows the dreadlocks to breathe and adapt while maintaining comfort and resilience for everyday wear.
