Winter is at it’s peak! These are some pics of the people who are getting great hair and staying warm in the salon during this cold weather.

David’s locks are gorgeous! These are interlocked, started by his mom, and for the past year maintained by me. I love how his hair looks twisted up like this. I pulled it up to fade his sides.

This is how people look after an experience at Grateful Dreads!
Ahn's trim up. Her hair was already very texturized, so I cut it to smooth her ends and give her lots of volume on top!

Couples haircuts! What a concept! We had a great time hanging out and doing haircuts and color. Laura and this salon are such a great match! Symbiosis at it’s finest!

There were a couple pics I didn’t snap of some great work I’d love to share! I gave Teymour the best looking cut in over 10 years. I suppose we say that a lot!!

I gave Alloy Ash the most beautiful icey purple platinum dreads for her trip to Texas. Congrats Alloy Ash and best to you while you’re down south!!!

This is a pic of Kristen’s dreads one week in. She’s really doing a great job with the maintenance!

See you soon!

Custom Ombré Fusion Extensions

| Shikote

I make custom fusion extensions at Grateful Dreads.  For Alana’s hair I colored them and made the extensions piece by piece to suit her hair type and the style she wants.

This is what the fusion extensions look like dry and in pieces.

Alana came into Grateful Dreads, and I removed her old extensions. Her hair is very fine and has been colored many times which makes it brittle.

I colored Alana’s hair with some conditioning color and did some extra deep conditioning at the bowl.  Then I added her new extensions piece by piece!

Alana’s full, long, gorgeous hair!! Completely custom just for her!!

Alana and I had a great appointment!

I had a lot of fun preparing for this, and Alana loves her hair!!   I am so happy with the results.  Thank you Alana for coming to the salon!
