Our Dreadlock Creation Services
We only use a crochet hook for dreadlocks installation whatever your hair type. We don’t use any chemical, wax or glue. Our dreadlock installation is 100% natural and organic.
Starting dreadlocks can take between 3 to 12 hours + depending on the hair type, the thickness, the structure and width of the dreadlocks you would like. It also depends if you would like to add extensions or not.
You can either start new dreads with your own hair only or add some extensions. We offer two types of handmade extensions: 100% Human Hair or Synthetic Hair.
