Dreadlocks
Interlock Root Work
Secure, long-lasting root maintenance for active lifestyles and frequent washing.
Extensions
Natural Human Hair Loc Extensions
Seamless extensions using human hair for natural movement, colour, and longevity.
Synthetic Dreads
Synthetic Dread & Accent Installs
Bold looks, festival sets, and accent pieces without committing your own hair.
Crochet
Crochet techniques: clean, defined, wax-free.
Crochet is the core of most Hairbalist work — from starting new locs on straight hair to refining mature sets that need structure and tidying.
- Start new dreadlocks with structure and definition from day one.
- Refine and tighten mature locs without adding build-up or residue.
- Perfect for clients who want a precise, polished look.
Interlock
Interlock techniques: secure roots, long-lasting results.
Interlocking is ideal for clients who wash and move a lot — it helps keep roots secure and sections defined between appointments.
- Reduces unraveling at the roots between maintenance sessions.
- Works well for clients with active, outdoors or gym-heavy lifestyles.
- Can be used on its own or alongside crochet work when suitable.
Natural extensions
Natural human hair loc extensions: length, density, and shape.
Extensions can be used to add length, balance out shape, or transition into dreadlocks without waiting years for growth.
- Custom matched to your colour, length, and density goals.
- Installed to move and age naturally with your own hair.
- Can be combined with new installs or existing dreadlocks.
Synthetic installs
Synthetic dreads & accent installs: playful, temporary change.
Synthetic installs are perfect for festival seasons, creative shoots, or when you want to experiment without committing your natural hair.
- Full synthetic sets or accent packs designed around your style.
- Bold colour palettes, textures, and lengths available.
- Non-permanent and removable when you're ready to switch it up.
