Dread Cult

ATTENTION!!

After 16years of creating and maintaining locks I have decided it’s time for me to hang up my crotchet hook.

As hard of a decision as this was for me to make, I want to be honest with myself and my clients, and feel that over the past couple of years I have lost my passion for dreads specifically.

However, I recently had my dreads tidied by the lovely Lilian who owns her own business Dreads n’ Locks in Petone, Wellington, but who travels monthly to Hawkes Bay to work out of Boxed Out Barber shop in Latham Street. Below is her details. As of January 3rd 2024 please contact her for all your new sets and maintenance needs.

Thank you everyone far and wide for all of your support over the past 16years of my loctician journey. It’s been a blast.

Unfortunately I am no longer taking on any new clients both for new sets or maintenance.

After 2 hand surgeries (carpal tunnel release on each hand) it's time for me and my hands to kick back on the frequency and amount of dread work/clients I do, so with that being said, I'm only doing maintenance on clients that I have already worked on.

Try searching 'Napier' or Hawkes Bay on the New Zealand Dreadlock Community page. Or if you are prepared to travel and are looking for a new set of dreads, I can't recommend Jam in Wellington on Ghuznee Street, enough. That's where I was trained and who by far do the best dreads in NZ. Thanks again for all your support over the years!

Hey fam! ❤️💛💚

A belated Happy New Year to you all. 🎉🎊🥳

December and January have been a crazy couple of months and now I’m back into my work flow for the year I have taken some time to review my policies especially those around new client bookings. 🤓📝

From March 1st I will be taking a $50 NON-refundable deposit before your appointment is confirmed. 💰💳🙅🏼‍♀️

If you can’t come in to the salon to pre-pay this then it can be done via bank transfer to the salons business account. 💸💻📱

If you choose to not show up, and not contact me at LEAST 24hours before your appointment to reschedule then this deposit is forfeited to cover the cost of my time and the loss of availability for another client waiting to get in. 💁🏼‍♀️

Covid has changed the way we do business and has meant we have had to re-look at the way we run our businesses so our clients and ourselves do not lose out. 👌🏼

Thanks for your understanding. 🙏🏼

* All long term clients… this deposit policy will NOT apply to you, unless I feel I need to request a deposit due to you not showing up to a pre scheduled appointment with no contact. Thank you

A FRIENDLY REMINDER…

Have had a lot of people NO SHOW or cancel last minute/on the day of their appointment once I call to ask where they are.

Don’t want to be a Karen but time is $ people and I don’t want to have to start taking non refundable deposits upon booking maintenance sessions to cover my costs.

PLEASE let me know at LEAST 24 hours before your appt if you can’t make it or need to rebook for whatever reason.

Hey loyal followers!

I have decided to take a break from doing NEW sets of dreads for the time being.

I will still be doing maintenance on pre-exisiting sets of dreads but for now I am not taking on any NEW sets. Happy to still take on new clients but for maintenance only.

Post 2 hand surgeries, I have felt a shift physically and probably a tad mentally, and feel the need to protect the longevity of my hands as long as possible. I have a large clientele for just my normal hairdressing services already and an internship within the NZ Redken Artisitc team that I need to preserve my hands for and focus on for now.

Thanks for all of your continued loyalty and support. I wouldn’t be able to do what I do without you all.

Any changes to this I will let you all know.

Any pre-exisiting sets booked in in July/August will still be honoured but these will be my last sets and I will not be booking any others before these appts.

❤️💛💚
