Dreads, Locs, and Fine Blonde Hair!

These are some interesting pictures from last week!

This is a good before and after sequence.  Lisa started her dreads a year ago with micro braids and didn’t do anything to disturb her hair except wash it.  When she arrived at Grateful Dreads, her hair was very clean and somewhat dreaded.  I worked on her hair, separating some and locking other parts, for about 3 1/2 hours.  We had great success!

Dreads After. So happy!!!

The next pics are of Cora’s locs.  She’s had them for 4 years, and they were actually started by someone I’ve worked with before!  Hi Renée!!  Cora’s mom is so happy to have found someone in Ann Arbor to help with her hair, and I’m so happy to be found!  The blonde woman in the chair is Cara.  She came in for a cut just as we finished up Cora’s hair.  I love the contrast of hair in this picture.  Especially because their names are so similar!

Cora’s really happy to have freshly tightened and cleaned locs!

Cora just got back from a tropical vacation and into the cold snow.  Stay warm Cora, and I’ll see you again soon!
