Designed to mimic real natural hair — soft, lightweight and incredibly realistic.

Silver Espresso Waves is a complex salt and pepper blend made to look like real graying hair. Deep espresso brown, charcoal, soft gray and bright silver-white, mixed by hand strand by strand, with charcoal braided bases, soft wavy curls and a few thin gray and ivory blonde braids for depth. It melts into silver roots and looks expensive up close.

Will This Work For Me?

  • Your hair length: you need at least 2-3 inches of your own hair
  • Installation: install it yourself at home with my video guide, plan for about 4-5 hours. With a stylist, timing depends on their experience
  • Reusable: take your set out and install it again
  • No glue, no heat: the set is braided into your own hair

Why This Set Is Different

  • Made by one artist. I'm Lana, a dreadlock artist with 9 years of experience. Each set is handmade by me and takes over 10 hours of detailed work
  • Real photos only. Every photo here is a real photo of this set, no AI models. The woman wearing it is me, Lana
  • Nothing hidden. Exact length, weight and fiber are listed above

Wear & Care

  • With proper care, wear your set for 6-8 weeks per install
  • Wash your scalp every 7-10 days with a gentle shampoo
  • Avoid tight ponytails for the first 2-3 days
  • Braid your hair before bed for comfort
  • Protect your scalp from direct sun for the first 1-2 weeks
  • Curls may tangle after installation, and that is normal. Separate them gently by hand with a little water every 1-2 days in the first week, then about once a week
  • No oils on the set: they collect dirt

“The feel of the dreads are soft and very lightweight. I was super nervous as a first timer as far as install and weight as well but both have been fairly easy and pleasant. I've had numerous compliments. I will be ordering another set when I am ready for my next install.”

“Exceptional quality, definitely superseded my expectations! Super soft and has natural movement. My daughter installed these for me and we are both new to extentions, so it was a fun mother's day project to learn together.”
