Our personal favorite, this mushroom dread bead is so magical it’s made from lampwork glass worked into a cute red cap, turquoise gills and a white mottled stem. The base of the stem is especially wide and gives the impression of marble rather than glass.

Ready to glow at the next smoke sesh? These UV dreadlock beads glow best under LED blacklights but also shine an electric yellow-green by day. 

How to Put in Dread Beads and Clips?

Whether it’s a clip on or bead, the struggle is finding a dread that matches the opening thickness of the bead. Once you do, for dreadlock beads simply push the bead up in a rotating motion as you bring the hair through. If you’re more curious about how to braid string into dreads, the video above covers that too. 

Subtle or Blunt

Although not every person who has dreadlocks smokes weed by default, there are some truly unique pieces for stoners who rock dreads. If you want to show off your love for ganja you can be as subtle or as blunt as you like. From the THC molecule dread, to the honeycomb drip for dabbers or the fumed glass pieces that remind you of your most beautiful hand pipe, there’s much more than a classic pot leaf dread clip out there. We hope you’ve found something that speaks to you. Regardless, if you’re having a chill night in, one of these trippy movies might be right up your alley.
