Dreadlocks with natural extensions - Jay.

Jade, nicknamed Jay, is a young professional tattoo artist. She lives in the Paris area. She follows, via Instagram, my creations of dreads for women.

She had not found a dreadlocks creator in Paris and in the Ile de France region that fully satisfied her. She therefore contacted me through my website website. Jade wanted me to make her dreadlocks made of natural extensions.

Presentation of his project

After a few emails, we had a long chat on the phone about his project. Jay wanted a chic and bohemian women's dreads design. She was looking for a loc designer with a strong artistic sense. According to Jay, only a woman would be able to best understand her project.

I advised her on various approaches. Indeed, a successful dreadlock design must take into account several parameters. We can mention for example: the shape of the face, the colour of the eyes, the size of the neck, etc.

After some thought and analysis of my workAfter some thought and analysis of my hair, Jay opted for fifteen dread extensions. It was a wise choice. It is, in fact, in my opinion, the best way to starting the locks adventure.

Implementation of the project

Jay was convinced that I was the right person to make her dream come true. So we made an appointment. A month later, she came from Paris to meet me.

I had prepared about fifteen natural dreadlocks extensions. I crochet them myself. These natural dreadlocks additions are made of real human hair. I only choose high quality hair. Indeed, I want to create the most beautiful dreadlock extensions. 

In order to obtain a harmonious result, I imagined a creation of dreadlocks extension in tie n dye. The idea is to create a colour gradient on the whole hair. It goes from darker to lighter. For this, I suggested three different shades to Jay. These were dark brown, hazelnut brown and a golden honey caramel blonde. 

These shades of colour create beautiful reflections in her hair. They blend in perfectly with her face and eyes. Thus, this extension creation is very feminine. Moreover, these locks are finished with smooth and lighter tips.

Finally, to highlight his tattoos and to emphasize the tribal and original side of this realization, I proposed to Jay to create two ornaments in his dreads. I inserted white threads in his dreads. These form an X. These decorations go down on two locks located on each side of his ears.

Jay is delighted with her dreadlocks which she finds very feminine. She will be able to experiment with different types of buns and hairstyles. Her journey into the world of dreads has just begun.

Jay will be back in two months for his first interview. I've advised him to have it done four times a year. Ideally, the maintenance should be done by a dreads professional. 

To take care of his dreads, I recommended to Jay the products of the Danish brand Raw Roots. You can buy them on Dreadheadshop.com
