Good morning all πŸ’š unfortunately I can not take any clients for at least the next week as my father (whom I help care for) is in hospital so I need to be on call for him. Will keep you all posted on when I'm back at full capacity. Thankyou for understanding

Another reconstruction done and dusted! πŸ₯° These were all natural dreads and we had one giant loc that had to be split but the end result is so worth it. πŸ™
I'm so grateful for everyone that pops into my messages or comes to the studio, your support and trust means the world. 🌎

Clip in extensions are a great way to try out the style, plus they can be used as braid ins or permanent extensions down the line if you love them, just like this lovely lady does 🀩 they look so beautiful with her waves! We have both kanekalon synthetic and super soft henlon curls which are brush able πŸ’š

Such awesome thick, curly hair makes for some great textured locs πŸ’š

This one was a MISSION! Psa for everyone- please, please research your loctition. Look for their portfolio, ask around and look for reviews. This guy came to see me to fix up what can only be described as a scam. The person who installed these permanent extensions, used a method that is normally reserved for temporary extensions but they also interlocked all his hair then sewed thread all the way down to loc to keep it in shape. This led to damage, holes, lack of movement to mature and pain. It took me nearly three hours just to remove his extensions and thread, but now we have strong, long, all natural dreads he can love.
Dreadlocks are not the hardest skill to acquire, but there are things you must know before attempting them in someone else's hair.

First ever maintenance on these natural locs and they came out great πŸ˜ƒ we had to join up a few neighbors permanently for strength but they're in for the long haul now !

A year and a half difference is insane with this fella. We now reach way last my chair πŸ˜… it's amazing how much locs change over the years - thanks so much for your dedication man, I'm so grateful to be a part of your journey πŸ™
