 Antonio is 69 years old. He is Italian, that is to say, he is, above all and above all, Neapolitan. He lives in Nice. He is a trained chef and above all a renowned pizzaiolo. He worked for a long time in Paris where he delighted his customers' taste buds.

  • Antonio is a vegetarian, passionate about music (especially reggae) and dance, and goes to all the concerts in the region.
  • Absolute fan of cycling, he regularly rides his bike on the roads of the French Riviera and Liguria.

In 2021, he contacted me to create his natural dreadlocks. He had always wanted to wear them. For this, he let his hair grow for many years in order to have locks of a suitable length.

  • The year he retired, he decided to make his dream come true because after all, there is no age to wear natural dreads.
  • He said to himself: I'm in the last quarter of my life, now is the time to wear dreads before it's too late and while I still have hair.

After receiving his photos, I immediately noticed that Antonio has fine, long and salt and pepper hair.

  • In order to make exactly the dreadlocks he wanted, I proposed him to come and see me in order to make a pre-visit.
  • Indeed, in this kind of creation on a whole head, the exchange and the technical analysis of the hair is essential to realize natural dreadlocks of quality and in conformity with the aspirations of the customer.

Antonio had several requirements for his future locks:

  • Keep its length.
  • Keep its salt and pepper color.
  • Get volume to fight against the flatness of your fine hair.

In order to create the dreadlocks of his dreams, I proposed to make and install natural dreads extensions with the following characteristics:

  • The same length as her natural hair.
  • I did natural black locks extensions with silver highlights to match her natural color as closely as possible.
  • Opt for extensions of 0.8 cm in diameter.
    • Indeed, when the hair grows (thus the natural locks extensions), his dreads will take volume. In addition, the roots of her white hair will blend harmoniously with the color of her extensions creating, over time, a natural result with a breathtaking aesthetic.

Antonio has been wearing his natural salt and pepper dreadlocks extensions for a year.

  • He is extremely proud of it and takes meticulous care of it.
  • Moreover, he is as coquettish as an Italian and entrusts me with the maintenance of his locks every quarter so that his dreads look perfect.

Antonio's children are thrilled with their father's dreadlocks and keep telling him:

  • Why did you wait so long, Dad, before daring to wear dreads?
  • They look so good on you and it's so you!
