Hook News 🤗 Our bamboo handled hook range is complete once more! 0.75 Singles and 0.5 Triple hooks are now back in stock and the mould for our 0.6mm hooks have been tweaked making them stronger than ever. Our single hooks come in 0.75 and 0.6mm sizes, so which one’s better? 0.6mm are good for mature, condensed dreads where it's more difficult to push a hook through. 0.75mm are good for dreadlock creation and performing maintenance on looser dreads or parts of your dreads which are looser eg, the new re growth or at the ends where isn't as condensed. We have also added a listing for a 3 pack of 0.6mm seconds stock. These hooks have a known weakness which may cause the hook to snap, hence why they are heavily discounted and come in a pack of 3. www.dreadlocks.com.au #dreads #dreadlocks #locs #crochethooks #dreadtools #dreadlocktools #0.6mm #dreadlockstyles #dreadlockstyle #dreadlocksdaily #dreadempire #dreadproducts #dreadlockproducts

If you're dreads have become a little scruffy and are in need of some TLC, this could be just the ticket! T I D Y * L O C S * KIT Accelerator + Tightening Gel + Dread Dust + Crochet Hook www.dreadlocks.com.au * Sea Salt, Aloe Vera & Lime Accelerator Spray will help lock up and tighten. It's like taking a dip in the ocean but the salt is balanced with the hydrating and health properties of Aloe Vera and Pro Vitamin B. * Dread Dust is an amazing little pot of powder which helps your hair easily and efficiently create knots. Only a small amount is needed so sprinkle some on to a hard surface then press your finger tips into it before you perform maintenance such as dread balling (where you grab a few loose hairs, rub them between your finger tips to tease them and then use the hook to pull them into the dread), palm rolling and clockwise rubbing of the new growth. * Tightening Gel is Aloe Vera based with a dash of Lavender & Rosemary. It's a quick, easy way to neaten your locs, tame loose hair and it smells refreshingly delish. * 0.6mm Crochet Hook is the perfect size to perform maintenance. Use it to dread the new growth and pull loose, flyaway escapees back into the dread. Focus on the looser sections so as to not 'over crochet' and be gentle to avoid hair breakage.

Loose, messy roots? You might not be able to visit your loctician right now or perhaps you prefer to maintain your own dreads but here’s a few tips on how to keep your roots tidy at home... Firstly, maintenance is best done on freshly shampooed, dry locs. A good residue free dread shampoo like those from our Dread Empire range will deeply clean and encourage hair to knot and lock up efficiently. Clockwise root rubbing can be helpful to knot the hair at the base of the dread. Place the roots of the dreadlock between two fingers and rub it against the scalp in a clockwise direction. A light sprinkling of Dread Dust on your finger tips whilst doing this can texturise the hair and help encourage knots to form. If there are loose hairs, pull them together and rub them between your finger tips to create a dread ball and then pull them into the dreadlock using a crocet hook. Any loose, puffy hair around the base can also be wrapped around the base and pulled into the dread also using the crochet hook. Palm rolling starting at the base and then moving down the length of the dread is also helpful in keeping your dreadlocks spearated and therfore, keeping the base a bit neater. #dreadlocks #dreads #dreadlockmaintenance #dreadproducts #dreadlockproducts #dreadlove #dreadempire #locs

Do you have thin spots needing repair or do you want to tackle your own extensions? We stock human hair wefts either available on their own or as part of a kit with the Dread Dust + Crochet Hook + Dread Comb. It took us years to track down hair of this quality. Most wefts thin out terribly as you move down the length and the hairs brittle - this is the best quality hair we have found and is perfect for dreadlock making ❤️ available www.dreadlocks.com.au #dreads #dreadlock #humanhair #dreadlockextensions #realhair #realdreads #dreadextensions #dreadempire #dreadlocksdaily #dreadlockstyle #dreadlockstyles

I hope you are all hanging in there during this crazy time. We want to reassure you that we remain open for business and are continuing to dispatch all orders within 1 business day. So far, for the most part our parcels are still arriving within the regular delivery time frames but there is potential for some delays due to the significant amount of flights which have been cut. Cargo planes still continue to operate between countries and Australia Post are working with partner airlines and other postal services to keep items moving quickly. Our heart goes out to all those effected, be it economically or health wise.
