Dread & Loving it - Dreadlocks Canberra Melbourne

I'm really excited to announce a bit of an expansion to Dread & Loving it - I'll now be servicing Melbourne (as well as Canberra), as I am there just about every second week now. A bit about me, my name is Elise and I have been creating dreadlocks on and off for over 8 years. I am self taught through many many heads of dreads done, including my own several times. In the beginning I dabbled with all kinds of methods to create dreadlocks, with some terrifying results as well as some great ones! I've found the best method for beginning new dreads and maintaining already established dreadlocks is the crochet method, and this is the only method I use. I will not even back-comb, so you will not lose any length in your hair that you've spent years growing. I love what I do and I take pride in my work. I have a great eye for detail and am able to help you create the look that you want. I use no chemicals, wax, glues, bands or cotton. The only tools I use are a small crochet hook and if necessary, a wool needle to thread thick chunks of loose hair into the dread. I prefer well maintained, tight and smooth dreads, so generally that is the look I'll try to achieve. Generally appointments are done in my own home in Braddon, Canberra. Tea and coffee is available for you any time. I also have a range of CDs and DVDs to keep you entertained if you are here for a long time. You are more then welcome to bring your own music or DVDs if you wish. For appointments in Melbourne, I will come to you so long as you're on a train line! Please get in contact for a free consultation and quote or to make an appointment. The more information you can give me the better - or even attach a photo if you can.
