Description
Brown Wheat Boho smooth dread extensions are handmade DE crochet dreadlock extensions, 50 cm long, in three solid earth colours: dark brown, brown-wheat and wheat blonde. This is not an ombre. Each colour is its own set of dreads, and each 10-DE pack holds 9 smooth synthetic dreads (3 of each colour) plus 1 thin three-strand accent braid. The dreads are 0.8–1 cm thick and decorated with cream, beige and brown thread wraps and metal beads.
With smooth synthetic dreads, it all comes down to the surface. These keep their flat finish through every install, because each dread is steamed by hand, one at a time, which fixes the low-temperature kanekalon. Behind the set are 13+ years of crochet work and 5,000+ sets shipped worldwide, and every set is checked by an experienced maker with more than ten years at the bench. Our customers are in the USA, Europe, Canada and Australia.

Brown and wheat dread extensions: what makes this set different
Three things define these crochet dreadlock extensions. First, the colours. Each 10-DE pack contains 9 smooth crochet dreads (3 dark brown, 3 brown-wheat, 3 wheat blonde) plus 1 thin three-strand braid, mixed by hand dread by dread. Second, the boho decorations: cream X-shaped thread wraps, brown X-wraps and beige linen wraps on some dreads, with metal beads in silver and gold tones. The beads in your set may differ a little from the photos.
Third, the finish. These flat dread extensions are smooth from root to tip, with no fuzz or ridges. The three plain colours look calm and natural, and the boho details add a handmade touch. Brown wheat smooth dreads mixed like this have more depth than a single colour. Read our guide to SE vs DE formats when you plan how many you need.
The base is premium low-temperature kanekalon. It copes with summer and humidity, but these synthetic dreads are not heat-resistant, so keep them below 60–70 °C. Steaming during production keeps the surface smooth, and it will not roughen over time. Kanekalon smooth dreads in this palette keep the same colours from batch to batch, so a re-order matches the set you have.
Steam set dreads: how we crochet Brown Wheat Boho
The technique is pure crochet: each dread is worked by hand with a comb and our 0.4 mm crochet hook, without wrapping or machines. Steam-set dreads then keep that smooth surface for good. These handmade dreadlock extensions come from our studio team, with no shortcuts. One dread at a time, by hand.
Before a set ships, it goes through three checks: thickness and length of every dread (0.8–1 cm thick along the whole length, 50 cm long), the colour, and a final look before packing. Delivery price and time for your country are shown under the buy button.
DE dread extensions: format, coverage and mixing
This set comes in DE only, 50 cm long. These double ended synthetic dreads suit both full installs and accents. Each dread folds over a thin braid of your own hair, so you get two ends per braid. Most full head dread set installs use 40–50 DE dreads, and every one of these kanekalon smooth dreads is 0.8–1 cm thick from top to bottom.
For a partial install, adding smooth volume to some sections, about 20–30 DE are enough. Smooth dreads for fine hair work well in DE format, because each dread folds over its braid and both ends share the pull; only SE dreads have a loop. Compare other colours in the full smooth dread collection.
Caring for Brown Wheat Boho dreads
Washing: shampoo diluted 1:5 once a week, on the scalp only. Let the dreads air-dry and never use a hot hair dryer. Skip conditioner: it makes the braids of your own hair that hold the dreads come loose.
Detangling: do not comb or brush the smooth dreads. Separate tangled tips gently with your fingers. If a knot at the tip will not come apart, cut it off carefully with scissors instead of pulling.
Heat: stay away from saunas and direct heat. Above 60–70 °C low-temperature kanekalon warps, and the smooth surface cannot be fixed. These dreads never need heat styling.
Sleep: gather the dreads in a loose braid or a sleep bonnet at night so they do not tangle. Detailed videos are in the DaddyDread Academy.
Mixing Brown Wheat Boho with other textures
The earth-tone palette works well with other textures. Combine Brown Wheat Boho with curly dreads in matching browns: smooth dreads between curly volume give a lively, layered look. Or add a second smooth set, for example a cooler ash blonde, for more colour depth with the same flat finish. Simply order both sets and install them together.
One set lasts two or three installs. Take it out gently, let it dry, and store it in a dry place without folding. Thanks to steaming, the dreads look like new at every install. These are reusable dreads that keep their shape until you are ready for a new set. We shoot in natural daylight, without flash or direct sun, so the photos are as close to the real colours as possible. Screens differ, but the fiber colour itself is consistent.
Install tutorials and care videos, filmed in natural light, are on the DaddyDread YouTube channel. When you are ready, buy smooth dread extensions that keep their boho character install after install.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the Brown Wheat Boho set last?
One install usually lasts six to eight weeks. The smooth surface does not wear off, because each dread was steamed by hand during production. Take the set out carefully, let it dry, store it flat and install it again. With good care, one set lasts two or three installs.
Is Brown Wheat Boho an ombre?
No. Every dread is a single solid colour: dark brown, brown-wheat or wheat blonde. The mix of the three colours across the head creates the depth, not a gradient inside each dread. That makes these smooth crochet dreads easy to place: darker ones towards the back, lighter ones around the face.
Can I mix Brown Wheat Boho with curly or textured dreads?
Yes, many people put a set together this way. Take ten DE dreads from this set and ten or twenty from a curly or textured set, then install them side by side: the smooth dreads add clean lines between the volume of the others. You can build a whole full head dread set like this instead of choosing one texture.
Does Brown Wheat Boho get frizzy over time?
The steamed surface stays flat. After months of wear a few fibers may stick out at the tips, which is normal. Separate tangles with your fingers, and if a knot is badly matted, snip it off carefully. Saunas, hot hair dryers and brushing are the three things that really damage the smooth finish.
Can I add my own wraps or charms to Brown Wheat Boho?
Yes, the boho decorations are just a starting point. Beads slide on and off any dread, extra thread wraps can be tied anywhere along it, and you can add your own charms or feathers without affecting the dread itself. Tie wraps firmly enough to hold, but not so tight that they squeeze the smooth surface.
Customer Reviews
La qualité est au rendez-vous mais j'aurais aimé que le marron soit un peu plus chaud comparé à la photo (ça reste à mon avis perso, ma copine elle voit pas la différence). Cela dit, à la lumière du jour ça reste très joli. Service client aimable et patient avec mes questions un peu chiantes.
