Really having to drag myself through #MonsterTheEdGeinStory.
I see what they've tried to do, but it's terrible!
I'd rather see a documentary then the proper films.
There was a funny tweet earlier about him sounding like Winnie the Pooh though 🤣

#playlist inspiration...

I've always been drawn to textured (usually low/with cheeky attitude) male voices, but what are your fave tracks with female vocalists?

1) Skunk Anansie (Skin) - Brazen
2) Hole (Courtney Love) - Violet
3) Powder (Ninette Terhart) - Seat of my Pants

Happy Tuesday! 😇

Lovely little partial head of temp dreads for Cheryl - she loves a blonde mix & she loves a galaxy mix, so we thought- why not have both!❤️

In other news, today is Thea the cat's 6th anniversary with us.
Happy Theaversary, Troublesplodge! 🤍🧡🖤

This awesome reggae artist and life philosopher came to me in need of a loc rescue, and I think we did a pretty fine job of setting the world (and his hair) to rights, don't you? 😉😇

Aaah. I've sat down for 30 mins total between 9am & 10pm.

Long but satisfying day.
4 clients seen, one hair order posted out, lots of interesting stories & chatter, and a happy cat being petted & adored by all! ❤️

I'm going to try to get back on top of posts again next week. 😇

Took a day off with a couple of friends, bought some cool stuff & carried a dinosaur on a stick around town.

It's VERY rare I go anywhere.
Social anxiety can do one.
Operation make-the-house-look-cool is moving forward!

I'm back with another #dreadrescue! 😇

Charlotte's #dreadlocks & #dreadextensions weren't done properly and had quickly become lumpy & chaotic, so came in for a new start with me, with fresh extensions.
V happy with these! 🤍🩷😇👌

I WILL make this hair order instead of doing another deep dive into the Quantum Illusion of Objects.

But there IS a cat on my lap I can't move just yet... 🤔

Sorry for the gap folx!

Let's kick back off with this gorgeous extra full head slim texture mix set!

A little bit of everything in a Boho brown/blonde combination.👌😇

Mooooorning!
Big ol' clean this weekend, and I've found one of my beloved 90s Afrosaxon hoodies! ❤️

Bought at Afflecks 5 years pre-hair business & it still fits too! Time for some matching inappropriately bouncy tunes methinks! 😎

Your wish is my command! 😇

Fresh dread rescue work on poorly done dreadlocks which had all matted together.
If you've had #dreads/#locs done, and they (immediately) feel like they could be too loose, they are!

Would anyone like to see the results from this #dreadrescue? 😉

This poor lady's set was only 5 months old. 😔

It's late, I'm tired, but that's another big dreadlock rescue complete & a very happy lady heading home to plan for her wedding.

It's this kind of stuff that makes my job worthwhile. Feels nice to be able to help people feel like themselves again. 😇❤️
