I heard that Dreadperms are really bad for your hair, is this true?
Just like any hair service, the stylist you choose should be your main concern.  Ensure your stylist is a licensed cosmetologist and able to perform chemical services.  Always do research, ask for pictures, before and after.  Do not hesitate to ask questions, you may want to speak with a past Dreadperm client as well.  We have been doing many types of perms for many years, we are educated in the chemistry of hair and it's structure.  The perms  we use are gentle and made for your specific hair type; virgin, bleached or color treated.  Perms are meant to change the internal structure of the hair, not fry or damage the hair.

Why don't you use or sell Beeswax?
Simply because it's not hair "friendly" and it's messy.  Beeswax repels water, which is why it has such a fabulous reputation for making dreadlocks.  Repelling water can also trap in moisture causing mold to form and grow in your dreads.  We're not saying that everyone who uses beeswax has mold... we're just stating the facts.  We suggest using a natural aloe gel (Knotty Boy Tightening Gel) or a "paste like" salon pomade/styling product, these products are water soluble and can be reapplied after washing or swimming.
