About me....

I've had dreads for 4 years, none of them have left home yet, so i must be doing something right..

I use the crochet hook method, but method being the word. There are many ways to get dreads, depending on what you want them to look like.
Even within the "crochet hook method", I see people doing them different ways... Through trial and error, over the years I've learned which do and don't work. Put simply there is a fast way and a slow way. As with everything, I think the extra time pays off with the finished look and strength of the dreads.

If you have an image of what you would like them to look like. I'm sure to create what u want, and I'm not the "sit down and I'll do what I'm gonna do anyway..." There are endless styles and variations. All you have to do is decide...

If you already have dreads, I can tidy all the loose hair at the roots, straighten out some of the bumps and lumps. Strengthen the weak spots and even re-attach broken dreads. So if you break one, or someone else did it, hold onto it.

Feel free to call me with any questions.

Cutting and Maintenance of 6 year old dreads

Here are some 6 year old dreads!
There are about 40 

The work to be done:
The hair is thinning on top so I added 7 dreads to cover the scalp
3 dreads are added to the sides at the front
Lock in loose hair and thicken roots
Cut locks to shoulder length and create loose tail ends

The dreads being added are his own from the excess being cut

Thin hair and scalp showing

Locks are very thin at the roots

Lots of loose hair on scalp 

Beginning to thicken roots
