A few of the heads I’ve done from August to December 2017

Important Fee Notice

I’d like to begin with saying a huge thank you to everyone who has trusted me with their JataDread journey.  I am sorry that I have to do this but my hourly rate will be increasing to £20 as off 1st January 2018.  I don’t like having to do this but my study fees have also increased and I use all the money I earn from locking hair to pay for my Yoga studies.  I hope you all understand.

Tidy-ups that I’ve done recently #jatadreads #dreadlocks 

This was a tidy-up of existing locks and locking new. Required only partial so made sure new were in a row and sectioned so that more could be added in the future.

30/09/16 Today’s tidy-up #jatadreads #dreadlocks 

Had to lock some together as the section bases were to thin. Good day talking about life, love and universe. We had much in common.

Locked Hair Maintenance, Very Important! #jatadreads #dreadlocks #dreads

Dedicate this post to the person who visited me today for a tidy-up, you know who you are :)!

Look, just because you have decided to lock your hair, doesn’t mean you are free of the responsibilities of personal hair hygiene and maintenance.  If you don’t look after your locks, you’ll end up being uncomfortable from them and with them and there is a good chance, you’ll end up loosing them.

Also, when the day comes to go getting them tidied up, it will be painful, will take a lot longer than necessary and time is money, so will cost you more.  Continue reading

Looking After My Hands #jatadreads #dreadlocks #dreads

This is an update on the ‘JataDread Philosophy’ page https://jatadreads.com/jatadread-philosophy/

‘Locking someone else’s hair is not easy and is knackering on the hands, wrists, arms, shoulders and back.  For this reason I limit my services to two days a week (Friday and Sunday) and I limit the hours to a maximum of 8 hours a sitting.   Should the hair be longer than the shoulders then two sessions will need to be booked.   Continue reading

After 3 n half months time out I’m back to locking hair. So glad. I’ve finally mastered a second technique which is  important because hair types are so different. This lovely lady was excited to lock her hair and I felt privileged she asked me. Cos my hands are rusty from time out, we spread the locking over 2 days. She wanted to keep the tails so as to keep the length. Beautiful bonding time with her, I’m looking forward to teaching her how to lock her own.
