Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1: How long does it take to start dreadlocks?

The time it takes depends on your hair length, texture, and the method used (e.g., twist, crochet, backcombing). On average, it can take 2 to 6 hours to start a full head of dreads.

Question 2: Do I need to cut my hair to get dreadlocks?

No, you don’t need to cut your hair! In fact, the longer your hair, the more styling options you’ll have. We can start locs with most hair lengths starting from around 3 inches.

Question 3: How often should I maintain my dreadlocks?

We recommend retwisting or maintenance every 4–6 weeks to keep your locs neat and healthy. Maintenance also depends on your hair type and how fast it grows.

Question 4: Can I wash my dreadlocks?

Absolutely! Clean hair locks faster. We use residue-free shampoo and can guide you on how to properly wash and dry your locs to avoid buildup or mildew.

Question 5: What’s the best method to start dreadlocks?: Can I wash my dreadlocks?

There are several methods—two-strand twist, comb coil, crochet, interlocking, and backcombing. The best method depends on your hair texture, length, and your style goals. We offer free consultations to help you choose.
