Having been a hairdresser for 15 years and then specialising solely in dreadlocks for the last 10 years, a typical client takes me between 3 - 4 hours. The cost to you is $350 for the first three hours and $90 per hour thereafter, should a session go over the three hour mark (minimum charge of $350).
Between dreadlocking much faster (due to my experience) and my lower rate, my service can be up to a third of the cost you can expect to pay at a salon for a professional service.
I also offer a package rate of $500 which covers any length of hair, 2 dreadlocking products, 2 threads (decorative dreads) and beads. This option has to be selected before the dreadlocking process begins. * Only applies for shoulder length hair or shorter & medium thickness dreads.
