In the beginning....











(a few pics of the "salon")



Hey there everyone~




So now that you kind of know who we are and what we do as a whole, it's time to go into a bit more detail on each subject.


It all started one day when a we were sittin' around, beading, listening to music, ya know, just chillin'. We always somehow incorporated dreadlocks into our converstaions, since both of us have them. We started giving each other tips and such on how we kept them looking the way we wanted. So with lots of practice, Dreadhead HQ products and each others tips, we learned how to keep our dreads looking as fresh as possible. (Although the back of the head is pretty tough, thats why there is good there are two of us :)) We also learned our specialty areas, Lindseys dreads are smaller, so she is good with those, and Jessicas dreads are bigger, so she can tackle those!

So once our dreads started to mature more and more, we got more and more comments on them, mostly from fellow dreadies. They would ask us how we did certain things, and if we could help them with their own dreads. It is definatly an honor to work on someones dreads, so of course we were down to help.

It can be frustrating at the beginning with dreads. Its kindof like your hair is JUST knotted. There is a risk of it coming untangled, major frizzies, so on, so forth. This is where most people lose their cool and either cut them or brush them out. We have a strong belief that this is because they didn't have a real "connection" with their dreads. They didn't allow that relationship to form. (We are personally very familiar with every single one of our dreads.) Deep down, you know they reeeally wanted it to work out, but sometimes frustration can cause you to do drastic things.
Thats were we come in! We will sit you down, and put full attention to your dreads. We are definaltly not about taking YOUR character away from your dreads, but if you have some problem areas that need loving, we are your people. Its also nice to just go to a "salon", and chill. So we turned Lindsey's garage into the perfect location for dreadlock madness. We want people to feel comfortable when they come see us. We have a bit of entertainment for everyone, so bring your kids! We are welcoming to everyone.
