Women dreadlocks styles are considered to be perfect because they are versatile and they allow you to express yourself in fun and creative ways like no other style can. This is also the reason why they are still going strong in 2019 after they’ve already spent the last few years topping ladies’ preferences. But what if I told you that you can combine your beloved dreadlocks with the latest trends, such as non-natural colors and extreme blondes? Are you curious to know more? Read below.

Women Dreadlocks Styles in Non-natural Colors

The past couple of years have been witness to the rise of the non-natural color. The trend caught on like nothing else and spread like wild fire, so much so that it spurred cosmetic companies to put out entire ranges of over the counter dyes that you safely use at home to color your hair pink, purple or green with guaranteed results.

Therefore, it was only natural, pun intended, to combine non-natural colors with dreadlocks, simply because they are the two most awesome trends of the year. The two-tone or harlequin approach is still big with the ladies this year. The example I chose showcases neon pink and blue with just a touch of green and yellow, but feel free to select your favorite colors!
