About Dread King

Hi, I'm Koi!

(he/they)

 

I am a fully mobile loctician and have several years of experience in the niche field of crochet locs. I'm an avid outdoorsman, writer, and traveler, and I believe that having dreadlocks is a spiritual journey that can be enjoyed by anyone. 

​​

I use the crochet method, which is great for ALL hair textures and does not involve twisting, interlocking, or products. It is especially helpful for clients who:

​

• Do not want to use products on their locs

• Have an active lifestyle and need to wash their hair often

• Are dealing with balding or need repairs

• Would like instant locs or permanent extensions.

​

It allows your hair to grow naturally with less stress on the scalp, and can be used as often (or as little) as you want. 

​

I know this well, as I love to swim, travel, and work out so need to wash my hair often. I have eczema and a dry scalp, yet can't resist dyeing my hair fun colors. I needed to find a method to maintain my hair that would stand up to the test no matter what, and could fix rather than cause damage.

 

This is how I started working with Dreadlock Central three years ago when I lived in Maryland, and now that I travel full time I am starting my own business. I'm excited to help you on your loc journey!
