About the Dread Artists Amy and Stefan

Stefan made his own dreads using just the rough splitting and twisting technique at the age 17, they took a while to set in but he still has them nearly ten years later and they are looking great. Even though he has fine hair his dreadlocks are strong, neat and tight. He has always done his own maintenance with a pain-free method suitable to his sensitive scalp.

Amy has had dreads made in almost every terrible way possible. After struggling for years with a few poorly made, back brushed dreads she was never ready to dread her whole head until she found the right method. She was introduced to the crochet method by another amazing dread artist (see Ema J of Divine Dreadlocks) and found that although it was a little painful on the scalp.

After meeting each other Amy and Stefan combined both their methods and experience and dreaded the rest of Amy’s hair with incredible, instant results, little maintenance or pain and decided to start offering their skills to others.

Dreadlocking aside they are both avid travelers and photographers, passionate environmentalists, keen surfers, organic gardeners and vegetarian cooks. Amy also runs her own yoga school in Coolangatta, you can check out her website at www.ajayoga.com.au.

A dreading session with Stefan and Amy often includes an amazing view and tranquil surrounds, yummy vegetarian lunch or dinner breaks, inspiring books or music to pass the time, lots of chatting and information about the rest of your dread life. They love what they do, take pleasure in any challenge and would be honored to make or maintain your dreads.
