Here's the truth - that a lot of dreadlock creatives don't really talk about - I feel... Burnout ๐๐ผ
I hit burnout.
As you can see my feed has been quiet for a while now, I had some big life changes occur in the last quarter of 2025.
I moved house and towns which was big
And during this time I lost motivation to create, too many things going on, trying to juggle different hats but most of all I hit a physical (and energetic) wall
I just stopped creating, I stopped putting myself out there as all I had energy for was me, and the furkid
It's a big thing to create a completely new hair style/ transformation for others, and if you're in burnout that's even harder.
A LOT of energy gets transferred between the creater and client and often long periods of time (and love) is invested to make these transformations.
I just didn't have the capacity. And to be honest have quite gotten it back.
I've created a couple of dreadheads, and maintained a couple of close regulars , but in the most part energetically, 'closed the books' to anyone new coming into my space.
I've been riding the entrepreneur roller coaster of dread creating since 2018, my body is starting to tell me to reassess, my energy levels are telling me to pivot , but I still have a bunch of knowledge that could benefit others...
2025 was a year of pause, of reflection, of survival
2026 for me is a year of reassessing, pivoting and re creation to move forward in alignment
I don't think a lot of dread artists share how burnout and inconsistent cash flow really impacts them, I'm here to share it does exist, it happens but it doesn't have to define the way you see yourself , your service, your skills or your vision
Here's to a new year , the year of the fire horse!

Hey team....
So I thought I'd share a little update,
This year has been extremely average for me (as some of you may know) I'm not going to sugar coat it , I'm pretty transparent honest about these things
I'm so grateful for those handful of people that have come through the wee dread studio doors.and of course for my regulars , a couple of you still with me since their first creation years ago!
Unfortunately I'm getting to the point where financially I'm heading into arrears, yep... so I'm selling some pre made sets for dirt cheap, to try to get back on top of that, and also I'm looking actively for 'regular' work.
Which means if I do get a job, I'll have to commit to that first before dreads sadly
I've really just been surviving (don't think you can even call it that) on my weekly drumming sessions with Rhythm Re-Connect ,and even then it's just covering the cost of petrol and hall hire.
Dyer straights , etc anyways... so if you're after some temps I would really appreciate your support right now, if you're after a creation my books are very much open and if you're a regular and need maintenance please reach out.
I'll keep you all updated on the job front as I've applied for something and have an interview next week.
As for online training, I've popped that on hold due to lack of email replies from those who did enquire and maybe I'll reconsider in the future as to what this looks like when folks are more aware/committed.
Big thanks to the two wonderful wahine (I hope you know who you are) who went through the application process and jumped on calls with me xx
Anyways that's where I'm at... Let's see what unfolds over the coming weeks aye!?!
