The latest creations popping out of my imagination!

Early 90s Gamer
Uber Texture & Dread Braids
Colors: Pewter, Fuschia, Aqua, Celery, Black

35 DEs / Avg. Length 12" / Hand blends and 10 Dread Braids

I made this set as an homage to early 90s video games, with their simple shades; especially I was thinking of the original Game Boy green screen.

Afternoon Storm
Uber Texture
Colors: Glacier, Sky, Gold, Begonia

50 DEs / Avg. Length 9" / Hand blends

I made this set to represent the moving off of a storm to reveal a gorgeous summer sunset. 10 DEs are Glacier/Sky then they slowly expose Gold/Begonia.

After hearing many people discuss getting larger, thicker woolies that are well felted, I set out on a mission to provide that. This is them! At 1/2" thick, they are double or even triple the 'norm' of my own wool dreads and those of other sellers. Mega thick woolies, here they are! FINALLY! Technical pics first.

Now the purty ones.
Pharaoh's Headdress
Mega Woolies
Colors: Teal, Gold, Plum, Turquoise, Navy, Magenta

35 DEs / Avg. Length 8" / solid

I dunno. Over the years, several people have asked for them, wondering how to make/where to get them. So I figure someone is out there wanting them!

Gorgeous, I have an old school gameboy and you've got those dreads just right :lol:

I have to say I think I'm a little bit in love with the Afternoon Storm; what a fantastic concept.

The thick woolies remind me of my first roving attempt. I didn't split the hair xD They were rather strongly felted though.

I love the video game one :D
