Extensions are a great way to speed up n your journey and so helpful if you have short fine hair that never seems to grow. Choose from real or synthetic and add some different colours if you really want to stand out.

This is where I step in and support the process, whether it’s just a new hairstyle or a huge life shift, self expression and symbolic gestures are a great place to start. This is a set of synthetic extensions, custom made with a little bit of her special doggies hair woven in! #dreadhawk #transformation #dreadstyles #dreadjourney #freedomhair #liveyourstyle #locsoflove #dreadlocks #dreadextensions #mullumbimby

I loved the satisfaction in this job, returning someone not only to his roots but his fathers as we reattached his dreads and his fathers dreads and gave them a good little clean up on the ends too! Like the result? Now centred in Mullumbimby and ready to make your appointment! #dreadlockwork #mullumbimby #loclove #rastaman #indigenous #roots #dreadcraft #reattachinglocks #dreaded

A new maintenance client with a deceptively large amount of dreads! I’m feeling so blessed for this existence, the people I meet and the conversations had. In supporting others to find their form of expression I get to create and in return am supported. What a lot of you don’t know is this is not where my work ends… I work in somatic therapy and breathwork, supporting, teaching and empowering health and wellbeing from the inside out is something that I thrive on and in. Roll on over to @movingcuriously to follow along that journey. #dreadtherapy #somatics #breathwork #wellbeing #style #health #lifecoach #dreadschangelives #breatheright #support #mentalhealth #gratitude

Just my fingers doing what they know how to do, the sneaky reattach is always an option… just so you know! Ever wish you could click the undo button? #reattach #dreadhead #longdreads #dreadjourney #afrodreads

Come and be wowed by the view. #mullumbimby #dreadlockextensions #dreads #dreadstudio #styletransformation #justdoit #countryliving

It’s been an amazing week of new creations. To help someone start something they’ve wanted to do for 30 years is such an honour. This is the beginning but the vision is a full head and you can do this, get them in stages which can be great for many reasons. I’m back creating in the northern rivers next week and will have a base in Mullumbimby. #dreadmaker #dreadlocks #dreadsofinstagram #newlocks #partialdreads #mullumbimby

Some people’s stories are amazing and humbling and an honour to hear. I still have some space in the Sunshine Coast for dreadlock creations or maintenance this week, dm with a hell yea! #mohawk #biker #storytime #dreadies #newdreads #sonic #loveyourlocks #sunshinecoast

These dread babies were just 4 weeks old and having their first wee touch up. It’s always good to give them a bit of love in the beginning especially if they are quite short. I love the Mohawk dreadlock look! Servicing Byron bay, Mullumbimby, ocean shores, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast and anywhere in between! #mohawkdreads #dreadbabies #dreadlove #newdreads #sunshinecoast #fijianhair #loveyourlocks

Dear Sunny coasters I’m looking forward to seeing you and your beautiful familiar land again. I have some availability if you’d like some dread work I’d love to see you you! #dreadlockartist #sunshinecoast #dreadlocks #dreadmaintenance #dreadlove

Met this beautiful maker down @mullumfleamarkets today. Natural shampoo replacement! She's been 1 year without shampoo and had beautiful hair. This is the perfect solution for your dreads. Keep them clean, stop any itch and promote hair growth...it's a bit of a win win. I'm not getting commission on this I just love to support local people when I see a great product. So give her and your dreads some love. @the_ansr

Hey! My name’s Ali. Im new to the area (Northern Rivers) but not new to dreads. I’ve been working my craft for over 15 years. It all started back when I was a backpacker travelling around Australia in a car. My hair started to get funky pretty fast and my friend suggested I dread it up. I barely knew what dreadlocks were at that stage. Hailing from Scotland, they were not a common sight! Of course in the spirit of adventure and spontaneity I jumped right in. We proceeded to take a lighter to a solid block of wax and melt it into my teased hair. Needless to say it wasn’t the best result. There was a time when everyone would tell you to wax your dreads, and thankfully this has changed, but I’m not sure they meant melt wax into your hair. However, this is how I love to learn apparently, experientially, and I had the rest of the trip around the country to figure out what to do with them. It was in Perth, WA that I found some hope with a crochet hook and it was on my way back around in Broome that I began to work on dreads for people. It came in my path so beautifully and I’m so grateful for all of it. I shortly moved to NZ to set down roots and set up shop. I learned a fair bit from Laura at the Dread Shed In Christchurch and continued to develop my own special technique. Dreadlocks are very popular in New Zealand so it’s fair to say I had plenty of practise in my time there. It also put a speed in my fingers to keep up with demand. I found that whilst people loved the process of getting their dreads created or maintained, they were still happy that it didn’t take too long. I then spent 2 years in the Sunshine coast, however it never quite felt like home. Fast forward to now, happily setting down roots in Byronshire and feeling so blessed to be able to live in this incredible land. I’m looking forward to meeting more and more locals and sharing my gifts with the area. I’m currently working mobile and servicing Byron Bay, Brunswick Heads, Mullumbimby, Lismore, Ballina, Tweed heads and everywhere in between. And I still aim to service my clients in the Sunny coast on a regular. #dreadjourney #dreadstory #crochettechnique #dreadsalon #dreadlockartist

A new client fix up. We joined in the tiny self formers that had been happening in all the long loose hair to keep his thicker dread look and trimmed up a few lengths to keep them all together and more manageable... Have you had dreads for more than 14 years? Do you trim or are you aiming for the ground? Always love to hear others journeys #dreadfix #crocheteddreads #allone #rastas #mobilehair #northernrivers #nattydreads

Having trouble drying your dreads? This works well on longer dreads. Work with the pendulum and momentum...you shouldn't feel it on your neck...at all!!! Spin well friends #dreaddrying #alternativeculture #northernrivers #wetdreads #stayreal

Afro hair, macadamia nuts, and genuine inspiring people some of the joys of rural nsw If you've got curls that get unruly maybe it's time to let em lock! Let them follow their true trajectory. Loc living is an easy day to day business...you know your hair is always just looking great, expressing itself freely and this gives you time to focus on anything and everything else....a good start to freedom don't ya think? But don't take my word for it...try it out for yourself, take a leap of faith into the curious unknown! #ruralnsw #afrolocks #awesomehumans #freeliving #lifeasyoumakeit

Always a pleasure meeting locals who start the journey later in life and have a good load of stories to share. One of the things I love most about this work is who I get to meet and spend time with. It's not just a hairstyle...you'll know if you've been there and if you are curious to know what that means drop me a msg to find out more #mullumlocals #farmlife #permaculture #socialconnection #dreads

Who likes the cheeky spark of colour? She's started with 4 but I think she'll be back before too long. It's like that with dreads. There's something about them that is alluring, magical, playful like a doorway back to your inner child, a permission slip to everyone who sees you and a sideways fuck you to the rules of society. #freestyle #fucktherules #coloursparks #coloureddreads #dreadextensions #northernrivers #partialdreads

When afro hair grows all it wants to do is curl into a tight spring which can be great for dreads. But sometimes it needs a little help to get it started out right. #drullet #fijianhair #naturaldreads #afrohair #loclove #dreadtribe #newdreads #rastaman

These dreads have matured nicely in 18 months. Gifted in the straight thick hair department makes for a lovely full head of dreads. Have you ever been tempted to give it a go? #dreadcommunity #dreadstuff #dreadinfo #fatdreads #dreadlove #naturedreads #coolhair #locs #alternativevibe

One of my OG clients in the Sunny coast, his dreads are getting long and even after 8 months no maintenance was still a 1 hr fix. Perfect amount of time to enjoy nature and catch up on life. #sunnycoast #dreads #maoridreads #naturedreads #longdreads #undercutdreads #locks

Hey guys, I'm boosting back up to the sun for a few days and I'd love to see you and give your dreads some love. Pm me to book a spot! 0493 206829 #dreadcommunity #sunshinecoastdreads #dreadlocks #dreadvibes #dreadmaintenance #fixups #dreadlove

Love this place as much as me? Love dreads and what they bring to you? Then we can celebrate together! I want to offer some discounts to my popular services as a ‘Hello, I’m here, how you doing?!’ My technique is fast so most maintenance is 1-2 hours work. Extensions give you approx 4 years of growth and new sets are just where you need to begin to getbthe journey going! If you know someone who’s always wanted dreads or needs some maintenance give them a little nudge and share the love! I’d so appreciate you sharing any of my posts or tagging a friend!

A cheeky fix for a lovely lady just in time for @earth_frequency Anyone else need a quick fix?? #byrondreads #dreadlocks #crochetlocks #crochetdreads #dreadedchick #underdreads #sneakydreads #alternativestyle

Cute couple alert! Both opted for a brave trim and were ecstatic with the results. Both are also inspiring artists was amazing to be in their home full of colour. Give @dajung__julie a follow #couplegoals #dreadedcouple #dreadlife #dreadies #colourbomb #northernrivers #Byrondreads

Aaaah, the sweet drullet fix up, so satisfying, business at the front, party at the back, if you can't choose which style this might be one for you...always a good option at a cross roads of life. And a good Ozzie classic What's the best that could happen? #drullet #dreadfix #dreadmyths #mullet #dreadsforlife #spicethingsup #northernrivers #byrondreads #byronbay #aussieclassic

Do you love this look? I was doing a tidy and shorten on some felted extensions and changing some braided in one's to permanent....note to self, take better photos...in the daylight, cause this look is totally bombing on my client. #braidedin #temporarydreads #wooldreads #dreadextensions #dreadlove #byrondreads #northernrivers #dreadlockcommunity #whitedreads

It'll was such a pleasure to work with Julie, she found me at Byron bluesfest and we talked about music for hours whilst I made these babies for her. How's this colour?? We added on some baby extensions around the face to length and thicken all the short baby hair sections. 65 and feeling alive, what an inspiration! #bluesfest #Byrondreads #northernrivers #dreadcommunity #dreadhair #rastas #livingthechange #dreamjob #mobiledreads #locs

These are my movements for the next month, if you need some dread loving I would love to hook you up! Let me know where you are, I can likely come to you or meet you somewhere central. Everything is possible. #dreadadventures #mobiledreads #sunshinecoastdreads #dreadtidy #dreadcommunity #lockmaintenance #locklove #alternativestyle #dreadliving

I really enjoyed creating these little baby Mohawk dreads, even better that we got to take in the vibes at Buderim falls in the process. Dreads are many things to many people and if they can bring you closer to your connection with nature, as in your tue nature! even better. We need to remember how important this is amidst all the craziness. Next Sunshine Coast and gympie dates from the 7th April #mohawkdreads #naturetime #narureoffice #dreamlike #dreadlife #communityspirit #buderimfalls #dreadworld #dreadstyle

This is pretty much how I feel after 5 days of Touch and Play. I’m still harvesting but I feel so much aliveness, so much presence. Im looking at nature in a whole new way, realising the chemistry/eros that is happening all the time all round us in the plant realm to create the beauty which we need to breathe, survive and enjoy life. The trees are not ashamed of their shapes, their flowers, their desire to grow. They're just having a good old public sexy time of it. Its got me thinking about rules and rigidity and how they show up in the body. Even subtle ones like not mentioning certain words in certain environments in case someone feels uncomfortable or someone else is turned on. Things we don’t or shouldn’t talk about or experience. Like a dam in the river of life’s flow. And simultaneously how important it is to know, feel and express your boundaries so we can enjoy more of the pleasures. When we know we are safe we can open. When we know we are safe we can heal, when we can express our needs there is potential. We are but a bud waiting for the right environment, desiring expression. Though it doesn’t mean its easy, we have a lifetime of conditioning to wrestle with, shrug off or melt past. Shame, body dysmorphia, comparisons, the unknown, religious guilt. There’s stuff, on top of stuff. But underneath is pure life force energy, consciousness waiting to be set free. It was such an honour to facilitate Contact Improv at this retreat, to see people opening to the dance form, and understand what support and surrender means and feels like in the body. CI gives us a space to practise giving and receiving in a playful expressive form, to embody relationality and to blossom beyond our linear world. Its an infinite world for a curious mind. Thanks to all the creators and facilitators of this epic event, so much was given and received and make sure you get your butt along to the next one! @touchandplay @curioustashamor @peerropebyronbay @akasha.phoenix @nickgf #contactimprov #touchandplay #dance #expression #indiviuality #relationalwork #somatictherapy #somatics #eros #retreat #tweedshire #blossoming #boundariesandconsent

Thank you India for supporting me! These are natural formed dreads that were getting a little wild so we did some negotiating to lengthen and release. They still hold their character and are feeling happy with their direction! #dreadsindia #naturalform #natural dreads #partialdreads #newfriends #dreadcommunity #dreadlove #rishikesh

An epic revamp on these 1 year old dreads. We did some joining, separating, extending with his own dreads...altogether pretty satisfying. I'm in Rishikesh for the next week or so if your dreads need some TLC.

Ah the fresh new dreadie feel, the relief of no more growing straggly hair, it's now time to enjoy the journey of newness. This client did well patiently growing out his mullet and now the fruits of his labour are here! I'm in edinburgh now for anyone, if you are in this area and would like some work!! #edinburghdreads #edinburgh #fringe #dreadlocksuk #loklove #festivaldreads #drullet #scottishdreads #scotland #crochetmethod #crochetdreads

I'm seemingly so organised I've still got a few minutes for an extra job or two. Or maybe I'm having separation anxiety. Either way get intouch if you are in need. So grateful for all my new clients here on the coast, all the connections I've made and look forward to catching back up in the summer, where I will forsure be complaining about the heat! #dreadappointment #loctician #sunshinecoast #dreadwork

This client started with a few, then a half head and a few months later she was ready for the full she bang! Which is a lot of bang with this much hair. Long and thick plus extensions. I like her style and full in attitude. Let's do it! They turned out great! #dreadcommunity #dreadfix #dreadedchick #hippychick #Australia #dreadsrus #dreadfixations #loklove #alternativestyle #festivalwear #sunshinecoast

Got some funky fun extensions or addins available now. These can be added in temporarily for colour and bulk or extended on of you want a more permanent reminder of the inner you! #dreadextensions #coloureddreads #temporarydreads #colouredlife #purple #multicolour #vibrantself #dreadstyle #dreadinstalls #coolum

So lovely to work with friends, to create something special for them that they then get to wear and become. And I get to spend time with them. Such a win. I can't imagine this lovely being without dreads now! Watch out for her cheeky under surprise, doing things a little different over here! Still a few spots left before I head overseas, dm me for bookings! #dreadfluff #dreadcommunity #underdreads #partialdreads #reddreads #dreadredo #dreadlockmainenance #sunshinecoast #mobiledreads

14 years of dreads. Nice to be looking after these vintage babies, they'll be good for another few months until the regrowth cones through. #dreadlockvibe #dreadfamily #dreadjourney #vintagedreads #dreadmaker #dreadartist #dreadsoul #lockloving #greydreads #sunshinecoast

Installed this vibrant set of dreads recently, I love how much fun colour adds. It's got me inspired to get creating... What colour combo's would you wear? Coloured dreads by @zahjalocs #dreadcommunity #colouredlocks #dreadinstall #coloureddreads #locklove #vibranthair #temporarydreads

My new colours getting put to good use. Again, gutted I didn't take a before picture and that it got so dark to get a good after shot. Her hair was very short and matted and had a lot of colour through it already. This colour won't fade though. Was such a pleasure making this transformation. More festivals coming soon!

From zero to hero. Quick fix possibilities. This client has had long dreads before so knew what she was getting into. I don't recommend this length extension as standard though. It's good to have something to grow into and get used to the weight. Saying that, this was fun! #extensions #dreadfix #dreadfam #dreadcommunity #locs #community #tribe #style #loveyourlocks #loveyourself #sunshinecoastdreads #coolum

You know that type of hair? The beautiful frizz that dreads if you look at it. Yes it's harder to wrangle that a paddock full of cats...but dreads, it loooves. It's was born for this. The curls that wrap in and around just screaming... Put me into dreads already and see how much longer I become, how easy I am to maintain and experience a kind of straight hair for a time. Feeling to make a change? #frizzyhair #dreadcommunity #dreadjourney #curlydreads #locklove #hippyvibe #makeachange #alternativevibe #expression #edgedwellers #activism #outsidethebox #chooseyourpath #locs #tribe

Hard to see what I did on these, but just added about 15 short blonde extensions to even out some shorties. A subtle but lovely fuller look. #dreadextensions #dreadcommunity #dreadlife #hippychick #lovelocs #blondelocks #naturaldreads #crochetdreads #rasta #Aussiedreads #community #sunkissed

A little sneak of how I add extensions. This method makes the join super secure and seamless. #dreadextensions #dreadies #hippydreads #chickswithdreads #dreadlove #partialdreads #dreadtutorials #sneakydreads #lifestylechoice #lovelocs #crochetdreads

The full half journey: you have a vision, you share the vision, it starts to emerge, you jump in with both feet and before you know it you have dreads to your bellybutton with some extra colours added in for spice. Now is the time for living your dreams after all. Watch out for this mermaid turning heads amidst seahorses and sharks. #dreadextensions #partialdreads #dreadcommunity #mermaiddreads #dreamliving #hippychick #realdreads #humanhair #livinginthemoment #humanconnection #crochetlocks #locklove #hippylife

You know when you've been partying too hard and you forget to brush your hair? It's a real thing. Watch out folks, dreads are coming for you! An unusual one but a fun one all the same. The client wanted a small amount of thick dreads so I separated up the matt at the back and got to work. Keeping things real, working by the beach, meeting interesting folk.

Solid fix up for a solid dude! It was my privilege to be the first to work on his dreads. They were managing quite well on their own but a little TLC goes a long way. #dreadcommunity #dreadnaintenance #loclove #dreadlocktlc #locfixes #sunnycoastdreads #hippy #festivalstyle #foresttimes

Just a little gratitude post to all my clients that have supported me in my business over the last 14 years. I appreciate the heck out of all of you. Due to the success of Dread Fixations, over the last 5 years i’ve been able to spend time studying and practising yoga, dance and wellness and i’ve started a business called Moving Curiously. It’s all about moving through life with curiosity, bringing the sexy back into wellness ;) and helping my community know how much power they have over their own health. Moving Curiously is a way of being and an approach to wellness that encompasses exploration, movement, mindfulness, somatic understanding and enquiry. I’d love to have you along for this new chapter! I’ve got plenty on offer and so much to share with the intention of empowering each of us into the wisdom of the body, offering tools to support our systems through the hecticness of this life. Yeouw! @movingcuriously #wellness #community #sacredlife #hippyvalues #embodiment #embodiedfeminine #dreads #gratitude #hippylife #mentalhealth #freemovement #freedom #empoweredwoman #dreadcommunity

New service!! A lot of people ask me about the long blonde ends on my dreads which exist from brushing out a lot of dread. I've recreated that look here by adding in mini extensions with tails, it's given about 2-3 inches of extra length (approx 6 months growth) and the soft blonde tips without any dying or brushing out.

Daniel took a massive courageous leap of faith after seeing my signage whilst up on holiday and jumped straight in! Happy that I could meet him in that and 6 hrs later a new version was birthed. He opted to keep 3 sections of hair as a point of difference! I like it! #dreadstyle #qlddreads #courageousjourney #locs #greydreads #thindreads #skinnylocs #newdreads #dreadies

Just a bit of shameless sharing. I'm so happy to still be getting such great feedback from so many new clients here on the Sunny Coast. I keep pinching myself that This has been my reality and career for so long now. I recently realised that locking and connecting with great humans this way has been the most consistent thing in my life. #sograteful #locartist #dreadreview #qlddreads #lovinglife #dreadcommunity #dreadlove #hippychick #loveyourwork #gratitude #sunnycoast #dreadart
