About Us

Hair styling is big business, with a trip to the salon easily costing between $200- $500+.  In these hard times, we understand the need to save time and money by styling your own dreadlocks.

Dreadhairstyles.com was created to showcase various simple dreadlocked hairstyles and allow you to purchase the basic hairstyling tools used in their creation.  We are dedicated to assisting you in your quest for simple maintenance and uncomplicated styling tips for your dreadlocks.  We hope you will use this site to discover the power within yourself to take styling into your own hands and learn to 'Simply Style Yourself'.

There are unlimited benefits to styling your own hair:

• Freedom from yet another appointment (you can style your hair in your free time while watching television or talking on the phone)

• Freedom to change your hairstyle at will and on a daily basis (no more dashing to the hairdresser)

• Freedom from the everlasting 'ponytail'

• Money AND time saved

We recognize the value of skilled stylists and locticians and understand that sometimes you really want (and deserve!) that elaborate 'do' that can only be done in a salon. However, we realize that not everyone has that amount of money to spend weekly to have their hair styled.  Even if you have the time and money to splurge on such luxuries, what about those in between days?  Is there anything else to do with our hair besides a simple ponytail?

Well, when we turned to the internet for some inspiration for at-home styling, we had to endlessly search for pictures of dreadlock hairstyles.  We found great sites that told us how to start dreadlocks, provided dreadlock maintenance advice, discussed the history of dreadlocks, or sold dreadlock products.  The only sites that were really showcasing dreadlocked hairstyles were the salons that did the styling.  However the majority of the styles were so complicated that they could not easily be reproduced  alone at home.  To top it off, most of the salons were in different states.

Here you will see pictures of uncomplicated and attractive dreadlock styles.  You can find suggestions and ideas for effortless hairstyles that you can create at home. Try our Knotty Soc^TM (now available with an adjustable strap!) or purchase one of our eBooks, complete with how-to instructions on the styles you will see here and others.  Additionally, you can purchase basic styling tools at below retail prices.

We are hoping you make Dreadhairstyles.com your source for your natural hairstyling needs.
