Fairy Realm Dreadlocks Studio Celebrates 12 Years of Service to the Community
Local dreadlock specialist marks milestone anniversary with heartfelt tribute to clients and studio partners
Fairy Realm Dreadlocks Studio is celebrating a significant milestone this year—twelve years of serving the dreadlock community with passion and dedication.
The studio’s founder and lead stylist has built a loyal following over more than a decade, with countless clients trusting them with their hair journeys. “To every single person who has ever sat in my chair—thank you,” they shared in a recent anniversary statement. “You’ve trusted me with your hair, your vision, and your stories. Each of you has been part of this journey.”
The success of Fairy Realm Dreadlocks Studio has been supported by a network of collaborative studio spaces throughout the years. Currently, the business operates from Sacred Siren Tattoo Studio, Tribal Spiral Dreadlocks Studio, and Barossa Beauty Collective. These partnerships have provided a home for the growing enterprise while fostering connections within the local beauty and body art communities.
The founder also paid tribute to earlier studio spaces that helped launch the business over a decade ago, some of which are no longer in operation but remain an important part of the studio’s history.
“Big dreadie love to my supporters, clients, family, friends, and colleagues,” the announcement continued. “You’ve lifted me up, believed in me, and walked alongside me through every twist and turn of this journey.”
Looking ahead, Fairy Realm Dreadlocks Studio shows no signs of slowing down. “Twelve years in, and I’m more passionate than ever,” the founder stated. “I look forward to what this year brings—new connections, new creations, and continuing to serve this incredible community.”
The milestone represents not just business longevity, but a testament to the relationships built and the trust earned within the dreadlock community over the past twelve

◦ The Biggest Misconceptions About Dreadlocks (And The Truth Behind Them)
◦ After years of having locs and working with clients in my dreadlock business, I’ve heard it all. The stares, the questions, the assumptions – some hilarious, some frustrating, all worth addressing. Let me share the biggest misconceptions people have about dreadlocks and set the record straight.
◦ “Do You Even Wash Your Hair?”
◦ This is THE question I get most often, and honestly, it makes me laugh every time. People seem to think having locs means living in a state of permanent grime. The truth? I probably wash my hair more than most people!
◦ Clean hair actually locks better than dirty hair. I wash my locs regularly with residue-free shampoo, and my clients follow similar routines. The cleaner your scalp, the healthier your locs grow. So no, we’re not walking around with months of buildup – quite the opposite.
◦ “You Must Be So Lazy With Your Hair”
◦ Wrong again! Maintaining healthy locs takes dedication and regular care. I spend time palm rolling, root maintenance, and keeping my scalp healthy. My clients come in for regular maintenance appointments. It’s not a “set it and forget it” hairstyle – it’s a commitment to a journey.
◦ “Locs Are Just Matted Hair”
◦ This one hits different because it completely misses the artistry involved. Locs are carefully sectioned, twisted, and maintained. There’s technique, patience, and skill involved. When I’m working with a client, I’m not just “letting hair mat” – I’m guiding each section through its natural locking process.
◦ The Funny Stuff That Actually Happens
◦ Now, while we’re talking about misconceptions, let me share some of the real loc struggles that have nothing to do with cleanliness:
◦ The Cupboard Door Incident: Picture this – I’m reaching into my kitchen cupboard, and somehow my locs get caught in the door hinge. I’m literally stuck, pulling gently, trying not to damage my hair while wondering how I even got into this situation. Pro tip: always check your surroundings when you have length!
◦ The Headphone Dilemma: Finding headphones that fit comfortably over locs is a real challenge. I’ve had to switch to earbuds because my over-ear headphones kept sliding off or creating weird pressure points.
◦ The Airplane Headrest: Ever tried to lean back in an airplane seat with locs? It’s like playing Tetris with your hair, trying to find a comfortable position that doesn’t leave you with a kinked neck.
◦ What I Want People to Know
◦ Having locs is a personal choice that represents different things to different people – spirituality, cultural connection, aesthetic preference, or simply loving how they look and feel. They’re not a statement about hygiene, laziness, or any other assumption people make.
◦ My locs are clean, well-maintained, and something I’m proud of. They’re part of my identity and my business. When clients trust me with their loc journey, they’re not just getting a hairstyle – they’re getting education, care, and support.
◦ The Bottom Line
◦ Next time you see someone with locs, remember:
◦ • They wash their hair regularly (probably more than you think)
◦ • They put time and effort into maintenance
◦ • They chose this style for personal reasons
◦ • They might occasionally get stuck in cupboard doors, but that’s just part of the loc life!
◦ Got questions about locs? I’m always happy to educate and share the reality behind the myths. And if you’re considering starting your own loc journey, let’s chat about what it really involves – no misconceptions, just honest conversation about this beautiful hairstyle.
