Life with locks

 

Just as there are no two heads of locks out there quite the same, or even two dreadlocks the same, the reasons that motivate every dreadhead on the planet to lock up their hair are equally unique and varied.

That's why building an online community for lock-havers and lovers, where mutual support and respect for each other flourishes, has been so incredibly important to us here at Knotty Boy. A place where tips, frustrations and victories can be safely shared, while allowing curious others to peek in and learn what having dreadlocks is really all about. A place where locks are appreciated not only as a hairstyle, but even as a lifestyle. So... welcome! We can't wait to meet you!
