Knotty Boy FAQs .: The Knotty Boy Lock Shop & Salon .: How long does my hair need to be to get dreads in the Lock Shop?

How long does my hair need to be to get dreads in the Lock Shop?

We need a minimum of 6 inches of hair to start dreads in the salon. Can’t wait that long? We can start dreads with Human Hair Extensions at 4 inches! We’ll book you for two days back-to-back, that way you don’t have to walk around with short little stubby locks for long! Day 1 will be sectioning and dreading your natural hair, and day 2 will be adding your length.

If most of your hair is ready to go, but you’re waiting for your bangs to grow out, we can usually do a few extensions on the same day, but we will need to consult before booking the appointment to ensure we have appropriate hair in stock.
