Welcome to the custom info page. Here you will find sample pictures of dreadlock styles, ballpark pricing, and links to colour charts for different materials. For examples of my work please visit the hair galleries.
If you are looking for something that you do NOT see on this page, go ahead and send in the custom request form anyway. You can put pretty much anything on your head (kittens... dishwashers... trumpets... you name it) so let me know what you're thinking and i'll make it happen!
Once you have a general idea of what you want, head to the custom order page and send me some details.
This price table is a basic guideline. Please note that differences in length, product availability, and other specifications can cause a change in price! This will be reflected on your personal custom quote.

Synthetic Hair
for dreads:
these 2 suppliers carry a different range of colours, so check them both to find what you're looking for.

for loose hair:
Kanekalon silky straight hair is best used only as accents in small chunks, as it tends to tangle irreparably otherwise, but comes in more colours. Toyokalon yaky pony is beter if you want a lot of loose hair. Shapeshifter is the nicest texture, but is much more pricey!

Wool
wool dreads are, by default, made from a mixed wool blend. Merino wool is available for an extra .25 per dread. black dreads are merino by default at no extra charge. undyed dreads score you a discount of .25 per dread. remember that any natural colour of wool can be painted over, which can create different tones.
For many multi-toned ideas:
spunky eclectic's handpainted colours
the next two charts are the colours that i use myself for handpainting. kool-aid coloured dreads will smell a bit like their respective flavour, especially when they are wet! :] I can mix these colours and control their intensity.
