The installation process consists of taking your current hair and using the crochet method to form dreadlocks. The crochet method process is when I take a 1mm crochet hook and repeatedly pull individual hairs through each other. Once this is done enough they form into a round, uniform, dreadlock. I ask that you come your appointment with dry clean hair with no product on it please.
Installation time varies on multiple factors….
how many dreadlocks you are looking to get; ex. peekabooks, partial head, half head, full head.
how long your hair is now.
how thick your hair is and how thick you want your dreadlocks to be.
Peekaboos 1 - 2 Hours
Partial Head 2 - 3 Hours
Half Head 3 - 6 Hours
Full Head 8 - 16 Hours
(full heads generally get set to two sessions)

Installations
Maintenance
When our hair continues to grow out it doesn’t automatically form into a dreadlock… even though that would be really convenient. So that means we have to repeat the crochet method on the freshly grown out hair. I recommended all clients to get root maintenance every 3 - 6 months.
Knowing when to get root maintenance can depend on many things….
How fast your hair grows.
Your own personal preference on your dreadlocks messiness.
If your roots feel like they are thinning.
There are long hairs detached from the root.
Do you feel like they are mating together? Definitely time!
Peekaboo(s) 1 Hour
Partial Head 1 - 2 Hours
Half Head 2 - 4 Hours
Full Head 2 - 6 Hours

Extensions
There are two major types of extensions, permanent and temporary. Permanent extensions are crotched into the existing dread and are meant to last years, temporary extensions are tied/braided into the hair and typically last a month or two. Permanent extensions can be human hair or synthetic hair, although I recommend human hair. All temporary extensions I make are synthetic. Although I do both, I specialize in permanent extensions sets and instillations.
PERMANENT
Dreadlock extensions can be attached to a fresh installment or mature set. Extensions allow for the extra length and thickness. Permanent extensions are able to last years!
All the details you need to know to inquire about a custom set….
Consultation for color, length, thickness, etc. (this is if you already have dreadlocks)
Instillation appointment of your current hair and consultation for color, length, thickness, etc. (this is if you do not have dreadlocks yet)

Temporary dreadlock extensions can be attached without your hair going through the crotchet process and mating process. It is a fun way to spice up your hair for a short period of time. Still product free too!

It takes around 30-50 SE/DE dreadlocks to cover an entire head.
SE - Single ended dreadlocks are formed with a loop at the top and having one individual formation when tied in.
DE - Double ended dreadlocks are connected together at the top, having two individual formations when tied in. This can give the appearance of thicker hair and more dreads.
