A dreadlocks wig is a wig with long, twisted locks that lets you achieve the distinctive dread hairstyle without a hairdresser. You can choose from deep black, medium brown and golden blonde dreads, a dark brown style with blonde highlights and a striped cap with black locks underneath, for women and for men. While many wigs are short or straight, these locks hang down to the neck, over the shoulders or down to the chest.
Dreadlocks wig for carnival or a reggae party
- For carnival, you often choose a solid black style, with locks that fall far below the chest and end in loose points at the bottom.
- One men's style is a cap with wide stripes in red, yellow, green and black, with spiral-shaped black locks hanging underneath, perfect for a Jamaican party.
- For a reggae party with a more natural shade, there are brown wigs with lighter strands and a style that blends from dark brown to golden blonde.
- If you are playing a dark, mystical role, one deep black style features wooden and beige beads with feathers on some of the locks.
- If you are going with a group, one person can wear the dreads while the other wears an afro wig, so your two hairstyles reflect the same party vibe.
Which length and parting should you choose for a dreadlocks wig?
With a dreadlock wig, you first decide on the length: the shortest locks reach past the ears to the neck, while others fall over the shoulders or down to the chest. Then pay attention to the top, as many styles have a middle parting that leaves your face visible, while some have a fringe of loose locks across the forehead. With almost every item, you will receive only the wig, without the clothing, glasses or necklace worn by the model. One women's style comes with a black headband in the package.
Dreads next to short hair or a bald head
If you and a friend are playing a duo, one can wear the dreads while the other wears a bald head wig, creating a striking contrast in silhouette. For a second role at the same party, a bobline with its short, sleek cut is the exact opposite of long locks.
