I'm happy to see these are doing good! They are looking very good on her 😀 It's extra special to visit her now, because there's a new family member who (kind of) shares the same name with me, the same birthday and the same galactic signature (in the mayan calendar, that almost never happens!).

When I arrived at this client's place right before

When I arrived at this client's place right before she was going on holiday with her girlfriend, she told me she just got back from a one day trip to London for a secret mission: without her girlfriend knowing about it, she flew there to pick up custom made engagement rings because she planned to propose on their holiday 🥰. Of course, I was very curious and excited to hear how it went, and luckily my client sent me a message after the big day telling me she said yes! 👰💓👰

This client always likes her maintenance extra tight! I enjoy our talks and her jokes a lot. This time she showed me the most amazing plant pot she had made. I couldn't resist adding a pic to this post too, it's just... the best. <3 🥺😭

Our last appointment was a couple of months ago, I extended her undercut but forgot one strand of hair and also forgot to post any pics of this. Can you believe that they turned 2 years old in january and I have only done 3 maintenance sessions on them? <3

I made these in october 2021 and it was time for their first maintenance session! As you can see, some of the blunted tips got loose - this is pretty normal and after a few more maintenance session most (or preferably all) will stay in place.

They are doing very good for the phase they're in. 😄 See their start at #soraoriginsyorick

Every once in a while I get to do a project like this one. Very time consuming, but the end result and the happy face of the client makes it worthwile!

I really lost track of how many hours went into these thin, extra long extended dreads, but it must have been so many! Luckily, with @thegreendreamshop the hours flew by, we had a lot of good talks, laughs, lots of tea and of course company of her cats and plants.

I made the dreadlock extensions with blonde hair and dyed them with the same hair dye Bren uses for her own hair.

What started as a plan for partial dreads, quickly changed into a (almost!) full head of dreads. Bren's hair is amazingly voluminous, but also tangles super quickly and it was impossible to seperate the loose hairs from the dreaded part. A lockdown messed up the plan for our second appointment, but after that I finished them and it looks so good on her!

Check out her insta! She crochets, makes talismans with repurposed crystals and has a lot of love for plants and anything vintage/second-hand! ^^

Back with this client, who lives in a tiny house 🙂 my parents live on the same terrain in theirs, so it's always fun to go there and visit them afterwards. I'm impressed by the growth of these dreads, she was too and decided I could snip off a bit of the longest ones. The next appointment, I'll extend her (loose) fringe too.

A nice session on these beautiful dreads. This lady made them herself! The 'problem area' with making them yourself can be the sections, because it's difficult to see exactly what you are grabbing. I could clean up a few weird sections for her.

Before I went to this client I estimated how much

Before I went to this client I estimated how much time it would cost to make thin dreads. Little did I know she had way more hair than I thought I saw on the pictures she sent me 😂. In the end I spent two full days there, which was nice, because she and her partner were very welcoming and we spent some hours watching the show Better Than Ever too. 🎶

At first she wanted blunted tips, but the ends of her hair were a lot thinner so she would lose a lot of length. We decided to leave them loose for now and blunt them later.

Right after finishing the last dread I counted them... Can you guess how many she has now?

One day before our original appointment in decembe

One day before our original appointment in december, we heard there was going to be another lockdown. She had to wait and we made a new appointment a couple of days before her birthday. When the lockdown was over, I had to quarantine myself after a visit with someone infected with youknowwhat... had to wait for the test results and if they would have been positive, I would have had to cancel again! I wasn't even worrying about me being infected, I was feeling bad for her if I had to cancel :') luckily I was tested negative and was able to fix her dreads before her birthday!

They are doing very good! See their start and first maintenance sessions on #soraoriginsrachel 🌱

In november 2021 I made partial dreads in this client's hair. I was going to continue with the rest of her hair the month after, but we had to cancel that appointment due to the lockdown. So she had to wait longer than expected! Luckily I was able to finish the rest in one appointment.

She and I share the same dread history, as in: we both got dreads as teens and they were made with perm liquid. We also share the love for wilder dreads with more texture. That's why I tried to make her dreads a bit more loose than I usually would (and believe me, I really tried, my hands are trained to do tight ones automatically...) so they will get more 'space' to develop in free forms.

I'm looking forward to the next appointment, to see how they are doing!
